Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Battramsley
Duct cleaning is the hardest part of an extract clean, and the part most often skipped. Without enough access panels, long stretches can go years without being touched. Each section we can reach is cleaned, and any we cannot is written down, so you know exactly where you stand. The work covers access panels, attenuators and horizontal duct runs, and common reasons people get in touch are grease pooling at the foot of the riser and hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs.
Work in a small place like Battramsley starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Battramsley
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition of the system
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.

Leave it or put it right?
TR19® is not law, but the duty to manage fire risk is. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, including the grease inside the extract ductwork. A planned visit to Battramsley is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
What you get with us
- Full insurance on every job
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London

What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
FAQs for Battramsley
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Battramsley out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Battramsley. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.
Does the sea air around Battramsley make a difference to ductwork cleaning?
It can. Salt air reaches Battramsley, which is within about 3 miles of the coast, and it speeds up rust. We look at fans, cowls and fixings for rust as well as grease.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes normally come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
Signs include grease dripping from joints, smells and a fan working harder, but the only sure way is to measure. Grease thickness testing shows exactly where the duct stands.
What’s involved in cleaning extract ducts?
We open each access panel and clean the section it reaches. Grease is scraped out first, then degreased, with readings taken before and after.
What we do, step by step
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Battramsley.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Advice
When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by ductwork cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Fire dampers that don’t close (they need testing and remedials)
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Different parts, different methods
Bends and transitions
Transitions from the canopy spigot into the duct catch a lot of grease. We reach it from the plenum side where possible.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Long ducts in larger buildings can mean several visits. We agree a sequence that suits the building, out of hours where possible.

Between visits
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep access panels clear of stored items
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
- Keep the fan on while anything is cooking
When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It records the date, the location and the technician.
Have access panels fitted where sections can’t be reached. It doesn’t stop grease forming, but it stops it building unseen.
What ductwork cleaning looks like in Battramsley
