Managing agents and facilities teams in Long Sutton
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Ductwork cleaning in Long Sutton
Many ducts were installed with too few access doors. TR19 calls for any section we couldn’t reach to be recorded, and new panels can be fitted to reach it in future. An honest report beats a guess. Typical jobs include a duct clean needed for an insurer and grease pooling at the foot of the riser, across bends and junctions, attenuators and multi-storey ducts.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What ductwork cleaning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Sections that can’t be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- Duct sections that need replacing
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How big the system is
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
FAQs for Long Sutton

Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Can extra access doors be added to the duct?

Do you need ductwork cleaning in Long Sutton?
Grease in a duct running from a kitchen in Long Sutton is as much a fire risk as in any building. Once it lights, fire can spread along the duct and into other areas, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Gaps where access panels were never fitted
- High readings at a recent grease test
- Proof of duct cleaning for the insurer
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Long Sutton is Alton Community Hospital, about 5.8 miles south.
What your quote should include
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- What insurance they carry
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether the price is fixed
How the job changes from site to site
Multi-storey and shared buildings
In a building with several floors, the duct may pass other tenants’ spaces. We plan access with you and the building manager, so the clean is done safely and quietly.
Attenuators and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, quieten the extract, but they can hold grease in their linings. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.

Leave it or put it right?
Fire inside a duct is out of sight and out of reach. The duct can carry it to rooms, floors or roof spaces well away from the kitchen, so cleaning the duct is as important as cleaning the hood. In a place like Long Sutton, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
