About our ventilation duct cleaning in Longstock
We cover Longstock and the rest of Hampshire for ventilation duct cleaning, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. The work covers grilles and diffusers, offices and schools and supply ductwork, and common reasons people get in touch are poor airflow from the vents and blocked general extract ductwork.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Longstock
When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Leaking or broken duct sections
- Building management settings that run the plant
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Where we work
- Toilet extract systems
- Offices and schools
- Hospitals and care homes
- General extract ductwork
- Grilles and diffusers
- Supply ductwork
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Switch the ventilation off or cover grilles during dusty building work
- Wipe grilles and diffusers during routine cleaning
- Make sure nothing is stacked against extract grilles
- Watch for water stains around grilles
A TR19® certificate and photo report follow every clean. BESA advises keeping certificates in the maintenance log, with the date, location and technician on record.
Fit access panels where the ductwork cannot be reached. The worst build-up tends to be where no one can look.
What we’re called out for in Longstock
Moisture in ducts makes dust stick. Condensation and leaks turn loose dust into a stubborn layer, which is harder to shift later.
Clients usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Systems missing access panels
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Supply ducts with years of dust inside
If you manage a school such as Test Valley School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
Questions to ask before booking
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether VAT is included

How the job changes from site to site
Extract ductwork
General extract ductwork removes stale air from rooms, toilets and washrooms. Lint, dust and fibres gather inside and slowly narrow.
Grilles and diffusers
Every duct ends at a grille or diffuser in the room. We clean them as part of the job, so the room side matches the duct side.
FAQs for Longstock
Is Longstock within the area you cover?
Yes, Longstock is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you offer ventilation duct cleaning in Longstock?
Yes, Longstock is covered. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with a few details of the site.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
As a guide, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. Bigger sites are split into stages, and we’ll confirm the plan when we quote.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and weekends, so the building can carry on as usual.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
What happens if it’s left?
A clean system moves air more easily, which takes strain off the fans. Dirty ducts make the whole system work harder. Planning a trip to Longstock ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.
