Ventilation duct cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Copnor
We cover Copnor and the rest of Portsmouth for ventilation duct cleaning, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. The work covers toilet extract systems, hospitals and care homes and offices and schools, and common reasons people get in touch are systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers.
Around a place like Copnor, ventilation systems tend to be in schools, surgeries, care homes and workplaces. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes a weekend for a modest system, with large buildings phased floor by floor. Tell us when your site near Copnor is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- We agree timings that suit the building, including evenings and weekends.
- Access panels are opened along each run.
- Before photos are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
- We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
- After photos are taken and the certificate and report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
Ventilation duct cleaning in Copnor: local notes
Food Standards Agency data includes about 30 schools, colleges and universities, about 32 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 4 hotels and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Copnor. Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. The nearest hospital to Copnor is St Mary's Hospital, about 0.7 miles south. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients.
St Mary's Hospital, about 0.7 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Copnor, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean. Classrooms and halls at schools such as Westover Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

Ventilation duct cleaning in PO3, PO2 and PO1 follows the same survey, fixed quote and written report as everywhere else we cover. We cover sites on New Road, Lynn Road and Byron Road and nearby roads. Copnor is on the A288, which makes it straightforward for our technicians to reach for out-of-hours visits.

What affects the quote in Copnor
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The number of sites or systems
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
- Travel, parking and unloading
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Problems your staff have spotted
If you need ventilation duct cleaning in Copnor, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We normally send a fixed quote within one working day.
Copnor: your questions answered
Can you work in Copnor outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Copnor keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can a school’s ventilation in Copnor be done out of term time?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 30 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Copnor. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What does TR19 Air cover?
The two cover different systems: general ventilation for TR19® Air and kitchen extract for TR19® Grease. TR19® Air takes an inspection-led, risk-based approach.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Do you inspect before cleaning?
Yes. We always survey first, on site or from pictures and drawings, and then quote a fixed price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. If photos aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
Leave it or put it right?
Facilities teams are regularly asked to show evidence of ventilation hygiene. Having a recent certificate and photo report for a building in Copnor answers the question. It’s better to plan the work at a site near Copnor than wait for a failure.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Building management settings that run the plant
- Design problems with the ductwork layout
- Damp or mould problems coming from the building fabric
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work
- Offices and schools
- Toilet extract systems
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
- General extract ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Different parts, different methods
Extract ductwork
General extract ductwork removes stale air from rooms, toilets and washrooms. Lint, dust and fibres gather inside and restrict the flow over time.
Hospitals and care homes
In care settings, keeping dust contained is a priority. We protect the work area and take everything away.
