Bassett Green buildings and their air

Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Bassett Green and across Southampton. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.

Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- File each ventilation report with the building records
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Protect the system from construction dust
Before any works, think about the ducts. Switch it off or cover the grilles while dusty work goes on.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. Hidden sections are the ones that get worst.
Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Bassett Green
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The condition of the system
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The postcode and the type of business
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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 we can price many jobs without a visit.
Common problems we fix in Bassett Green
It matters for the people inside: dusty ducts can blow debris back into rooms, restrict airflow and make fans work harder. Where people are vulnerable, as in healthcare and care settings, the stakes are higher.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers
- Ductwork with too few access panels to clean
- Construction dust left in ducts after a refit
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
Royal South Hants Hospital, about 1.9 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Bassett Green, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean.
What your quote should include
- What hours they’ll be on site
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
Part by part
Supply ductwork
Supply ductwork delivers conditioned air to each room. Fine dust that gets past the filters settles along the runs, and we remove it through access panels.
Offices and retail
Shared systems in multi-let buildings need access to several areas. Access is agreed with the building manager.
Questions from Bassett Green
Can you come to Bassett Green after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Bassett Green keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you clean school ventilation in Bassett Green in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 28 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Bassett Green, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll fit the work in.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not normally. We need the work area to ourselves while we’re on site, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes. TR19® Air is inspection-led, so we look inside the ducts at set points, with photos of the inside. We recommend cleaning where the inspection shows it’s due.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
