About our ductwork cleaning in Berghers Hill
Many ducts were installed with too few access doors. TR19 calls for any section we couldn’t reach to be recorded, and we can fit new access panels so it’s cleaned next time. An honest report beats a guess. We are often asked to deal with proof of duct cleaning for the insurer and grease pooling at the foot of the riser, across horizontal duct runs, bends and junctions and vertical risers.
Somewhere as small as Berghers Hill, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What happens on the day
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Berghers Hill.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
- Access panels are opened and heavy deposits scraped out by hand.
- The duct is degreased with the method that suits the grease, from degreasers to hot water or steam.
- We test again, take photos and note any part that couldn’t be reached.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Why act early in Berghers Hill
Fire inside a duct is out of sight and out of reach. It can travel through the ductwork to other parts of the building, which is why the duct matters as much as the canopy. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Berghers Hill
A vertical riser can run up several floors. Grease clings to the walls and can run down to the base, where it can pool. Panels along the riser make proper cleaning possible.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
- Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Berghers Hill is Marlow Community Hospital, about 4.1 miles west.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
How we price ductwork cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- What state the system is in
- The size of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any previous report or certificate
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Store the certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Do not block access panels with shelving or stock
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
- Make sure filters are seated properly
The report names every part of the duct that couldn’t be reached, with the reason. You can then decide whether to have access panels fitted.
The less grease gets past the canopy, the cleaner the duct stays. Keep the filters clean, well fitted and in place whenever you cook.
Berghers Hill kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records include about 11 pubs, bars and clubs within about 1.5 miles of central Berghers Hill. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. In Berghers Hill, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Berghers Hill is Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Historic houses near Berghers Hill, such as Cliveden about 1.7 miles south, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. For schools such as Wooburn Green Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
