Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Beaulieu
No two duct runs are the same, in Beaulieu or anywhere else. Some run a short distance to an outside wall, others climb several floors to the roof. We map the route during the survey, so we know where to get in and how long it will take. If you have a grease test showing the duct is overdue and grease leaking from duct joints, we can put it right.
For a kitchen in or near Beaulieu, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Part by part
Bends and transitions
The join where the canopy meets the duct is a common hotspot. We clean it from the canopy side or through a nearby panel.
Access panels
Panels have to seal properly once they’re closed so the duct stays tight. We will tell you if any panel needs replacing.
What happens on the day
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Beaulieu, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know about parking and loading
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Questions from Beaulieu
Which council inspects kitchens in Beaulieu?
Kitchens in Beaulieu are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Is ductwork cleaning any different in a coastal place like Beaulieu?
It can. Being within about 3 miles of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Beaulieu than inland. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at every visit.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we will survey first.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
Drips, smells and weak extraction are clues, but measuring is the reliable way to know. A WFTT or DTT reading gives a clear answer.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted whenever you cook
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Flag drips from the duct right away
- Have the grease measured if cooking hours go up
The report gives a recommended next clean date, worked out from the grease we found and how long you cook each day, in line with BESA guidance.
Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. It doesn’t stop grease forming, but it stops it building unseen.
Beaulieu kitchens: local notes
At about 3 miles from the coast, Beaulieu is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Beaulieu. Each kitchen that cooks under a canopy sends grease-laden air into a duct, where it cools and settles. Food hygiene inspections in Beaulieu are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Beaulieu is Lymington New Forest Hospital, about 5.4 miles south-west. School kitchens, at schools like Beaulieu Village Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of the Blessed Virgin and Child or anywhere around Beaulieu, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What affects the quote in Beaulieu
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Whether several sites go on one quote
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Why it’s worth doing now in Beaulieu
Old grease in a duct for a kitchen in Beaulieu doesn’t stay soft. Heat and age turn it into a thick, stubborn crust, which makes each delayed clean a bigger one. Planning a trip to Beaulieu ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

For landlords and multi-site operators
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
