Ductwork cleaning near Bedhampton

Ductwork cleaning in Bedhampton, done properly

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. The work covers vertical risers, access panels and multi-storey ducts, and people most often call us about readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test and proof of duct cleaning for the insurer.

In a smaller place like Bedhampton, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Leave it or put it right?

There’s no law that names TR19. The Fire Safety Order 2005 makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the duct is part of that. In a smaller place like Bedhampton, a site that has to close is felt quickly.

You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

Kitchen extracts in Bedhampton

At about 1 mile from the coast, Bedhampton 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. Look up Bedhampton on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 48 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 45 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Bedhampton. Where they cook under a canopy, grease doesn’t stop at the filters: it settles along the duct and up the riser. Bedhampton sits within the area of 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.

Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Havant War Memorial Hospital is the nearest hospital to Bedhampton, about 0.7 miles east. If you run a café or takeaway near Bedhampton station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

Do you need ductwork cleaning in Bedhampton?

Grease in a duct running from a kitchen in Bedhampton is as much a fire risk as in any building. Burning grease can carry fire through the ductwork to other rooms or floors, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • Fat dripping from the ductwork
  • Duct runs that can’t be reached
  • A duct clean needed for an insurer
  • Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Bidbury Junior School or anywhere near Bedhampton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • Proof of insurance
  • When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
  • Whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

So the system stays in good health:

  • Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps
  • Flag drips from the duct straight away
  • Check readings when the menu changes
  • Keep to the interval on the report

A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It shows when and where the clean was done and by whom.

Run the extract the whole time the kitchen is cooking. Moving air carries vapour through rather than letting it settle, so switching off early adds to the build-up.

What happens on the day

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. For a site near Bedhampton, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.

  1. We trace the duct and find every way in.
  2. Grease thickness is measured at set points.
  3. Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
  4. Heavy deposits come out by hand, then each section is degreased.
  5. We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.

How to prepare

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Questions from Bedhampton

Can sea air affect ductwork cleaning in Bedhampton?

It can, as Bedhampton is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.

Which council inspects kitchens in Bedhampton?

Food hygiene inspections in Bedhampton are carried out by Havant council. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

How much notice do you need?

The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?

When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19 clean, you get a TR19 certificate and a photo report. The report shows readings, photos and any sections we couldn’t reach.

How long does it take to clean extract ducts?

It takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.

Which accreditations do you hold?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.

Part by part

Attenuators and discharge

Attenuators, where fitted, quieten the extract, and their linings can soak up grease. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.

Bends and transitions

A bend can hold far more grease than a straight run of the same length. It’s scraped out and degreased, and readings are taken there before and after.

How we price ductwork cleaning

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • The condition of the system
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
