What happens if it’s left?

About our ductwork cleaning in Barton Stacey
Every duct has its own route. Some run a short distance to an outside wall, others climb several floors to the roof. The survey traces the route, so we know where to get in and how long it will take. If you have proof of duct cleaning for the insurer and thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct, we can help.
In a small place like Barton Stacey, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Questions from Barton Stacey
Can the work in Barton Stacey be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Barton Stacey needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Barton Stacey?
Yes, Barton Stacey is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We normally quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Barton Stacey
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

What else we do in Barton Stacey
What the work involves, part by part
Access panels
After cleaning, every panel is closed and sealed so the duct stays tight. We’ll tell you if any panel needs replacing.
Attenuators and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to reduce noise, and their linings can soak up grease. They’re cleaned where possible and recorded if not.
What a clean won’t put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Sections that can’t be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- Faulty fire dampers
- Ductwork that was poorly designed
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Horizontal duct runs
- Multi-storey ducts
- Access panels
- Bends and junctions
- Vertical risers
- Attenuators
When to call us in Barton Stacey
Grease settles fastest where the air slows down. Long horizontal runs, bends, changes in size and the foot of a riser all collect more, and those are the points we pay most attention to.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- Thick crusts of old grease along the duct
- Grease pooling at the foot of the riser
- A duct nobody has opened in years
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of All Saints or anywhere around Barton Stacey, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Grease, kitchens and Barton Stacey
Look up Barton Stacey on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Barton Stacey. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Barton Stacey. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Barton Stacey falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
School kitchens, at schools like Barton Stacey Church of England Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Barton Stacey.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
