About our ductwork cleaning in Brunswick Park
Nobody sees duct grease building, so nobody notices it until something goes wrong. A flare-up drawn up from the range can light it, and fire can then run along the ductwork to other parts of the building. Cleaning the duct takes that fuel away. If you’re dealing with hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs and a duct nobody has opened in years, we can put it right, from bends and junctions, multi-storey ducts and access panels onwards.
In a London area like Brunswick Park, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When it’s something else
Ductwork cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
- Faulty fire dampers
- A failed fan motor at the end of the duct (a fan repair job)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover

Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Brunswick Park
Damaged or poorly fitted filters let more grease into the duct. More grease reaches the ductwork than it should and it fills faster.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
- Sections of duct with no access panels
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Grease leaking from duct joints
If you cook for passing trade around New Southgate station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.
Questions to ask before you book

What staff can safely do
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.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we are happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Brunswick Park.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- We measure grease thickness at set points before cleaning.
- We open the panels and scrape out the heaviest grease.
- Next the ducts and risers are degreased, using whatever suits the deposit.
- We test again, take pictures and note any part that couldn’t be reached.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Brunswick Park kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 36 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Brunswick Park. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Most London extract cleaning happens at night, after the last service. Food hygiene inspections in Brunswick Park are the job of Barnet council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Coppetts Wood Hospital about 1.7 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Oakleigh Community Church, or anywhere in Brunswick Park, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

FAQs for Brunswick Park
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Brunswick Park in the summer holidays?

What do you need to know about parking in Brunswick Park?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Working overnight, as we often do in London, normally makes it simpler.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Do you install duct access panels?
Yes. We will point out where panels are needed, and fitting them means future cleans are more complete.
How long does ductwork cleaning take?
It takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. We will confirm the time when we quote.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The scale of the work
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
- Book the next clean before the recommended date
- Keep the fan on while anything is cooking
The report names every part of the duct that couldn’t be reached, with the reason. We can fit access panels so those sections are cleaned next time.
Keep the fan on throughout service. Moving air carries vapour through rather than letting it settle, so switching off early adds to the build-up.
How the job changes from site to site
Horizontal duct runs
Long horizontal runs need access panels at regular intervals. Any stretch out of reach is noted and can fit extra panels.
Vertical risers
A riser takes the duct up through one or more floors. Grease runs down the walls and gathers at the base, which is one of the points we test.
