How we price ductwork cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The condition of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
- Travel, parking and unloading
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The site address and the type of premises

Part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Long horizontal runs need access panels at regular intervals. Any stretch out of reach is noted and can fit extra panels.
Attenuators and discharge
The last section of duct before the discharge is often the coolest, so it can collect more grease than expected. It’s tested and cleaned along with the rest.
Honest limits
Ductwork cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. It will not put right:
- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
- Faulty fire dampers
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work
- Multi-storey ducts
- Vertical risers
- Bends and junctions

Brown Candover questions
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Brown Candover?
Fire safety enforcement in Brown Candover is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you get to a site in Brown Candover?
Yes, Brown Candover is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we have been trading since 2009.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
What happens if there are not enough access panels?
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 far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Can extra access doors be added to the duct?
Yes, we install duct access panels. We place them where they help most, and we will recommend where.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Brown Candover run smoothly.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- Readings, photos and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Get a fixed quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Leave it or put it right?
Grease narrows the duct and slows the air. Less air moves, so heat and smoke stay in the kitchen while the fan strains and grease can drip from duct joints. In a place like Brown Candover, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before work begins.
Why us?
- We’re fully insured
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Survey first, then a fixed quote
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

- Tell us if grease leaks from the ductwork
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections cannot be reached
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted whenever you cook
Every panel we open is refitted when we finish, and the surrounding area is left clean. Waste grease and water are taken away.
Book the next duct clean before the date passes. A change in cooking hours may change the interval under BESA guidance, and grease thickness testing will show it.
