How we handle ductwork cleaning in Blewbury
Ductwork in Blewbury is cleaned the same thorough way as everywhere else we work: readings at set points, heavy grease scraped out by hand, then degreasing to suit the deposit. Post-clean readings and photos complete the record. If you have readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test and stale grease odours from the duct, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
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. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Check readings when the menu changes
- Don’t block access panels with shelving or stock
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
Grease readings are taken again at the same set points, giving you before and after readings. Before and after pictures sit next to the numbers.
Keep to the cleaning interval on the report. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval may need to shorten, and grease thickness testing will show it.
Questions from Blewbury
Can you get to a site in Blewbury?
Yes, Blewbury is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you work overnight in Blewbury?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Blewbury can fit around your hours. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not usually. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we are there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
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.
How long will the duct clean take?
A short duct can be cleaned in a few hours, while long ducts and tall risers can need more than one visit. Visits are planned out of hours.
Kitchen extracts in Blewbury
Blewbury is covered by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Blewbury, about 49 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Blewbury (Brightwell Manor is about 4.1 miles north-east), fitting access panels needs care. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Michael or elsewhere in Blewbury, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Why act early in Blewbury
A fire in a greasy duct is hard to reach and hard to stop. It can travel through the ductwork to other parts of the building, so cleaning the duct is as important as cleaning the hood. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Blewbury rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. The timing of a visit to Blewbury is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- Each section is cleaned in turn through its access panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- The duct is signed off with readings, pictures and a next clean date.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Get a fixed quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- Ductwork that was poorly designed
- Parts of the duct with no way in
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
What the work covers
- Vertical risers
- Attenuators
- Multi-storey ducts
- Bends and junctions
- Horizontal duct runs
- Access panels
How we price ductwork cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The condition we find in the survey
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels

When to call us in Blewbury
Many ducts don’t have enough access panels. Stretches with no way in may never have been touched, and grease there keeps thickening unseen.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Gaps where access panels were never fitted
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Blewbury Endowed Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
What your quote should include
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the price is fixed

Different parts, different methods
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.
Access panels
Every section of duct is cleaned through an access panel. Without them, parts of the duct cannot be reached, and TR19 expects them to be recorded.
