What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
About our ductwork cleaning in Bordon
Nobody sees duct grease building, so nobody notices it until something goes wrong. Flames pulled in from the cooking line can ignite it, carrying a fire along the duct and into rooms far from the kitchen. Cleaning the duct takes that fuel away. The work covers multi-storey ducts, horizontal duct runs and vertical risers, and common reasons people get in touch are readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test and an insurer asking for TR19 evidence.
Kitchens around a place like Bordon are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How the visit works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the ductwork cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. Everything the job in Bordon needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- Readings, pictures and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about parking and loading

Why act early in Bordon
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. Around Bordon, a kitchen or building out of action is missed right away.
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 you get with us
- Every job surveyed first
- In business since 2009
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Full insurance on every job

For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Bordon
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How easy every part is to reach
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any previous report or certificate
- The postcode and the type of business
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections cannot be reached
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Never cook with a filter missing
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
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.
Watch for warning signs between cleans: grease leaking from duct joints, smells, or a fan that sounds rough. A grease thickness test can confirm whether a spot clean is needed.
Do you need ductwork cleaning in Bordon?
Grease filters that don’t seal let fat straight through. The duct then takes grease that the filters should have stopped and it fills faster.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- High readings at a recent grease test
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Bordon Infant School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What ductwork cleaning looks like in Bordon
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 5 pubs and bars within about 1.5 miles of central Bordon. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Bordon. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. In Bordon, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from East Hampshire council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Mark's Sacred Church, or anywhere in Bordon, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Chase Community Hospital about 0.6 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Questions from Bordon
Which fire service covers Bordon?
Bordon is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Will you come out to Bordon?
Yes, Bordon is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before work begins.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
How do you clean inside the ductwork?
After a survey and grease readings, the duct is opened up through its access panels. Each run and riser is scraped and degreased, then the readings are repeated.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
What if part of the duct can’t be reached?
Every reachable section is cleaned and the rest recorded. Fitting extra access panels is the usual answer, and we can do that for you.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
