Ductwork Cleaning in Cassington
Ductwork cleaning for Cassington, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.

Ductwork cleaning in Cassington, done properly
Each extract duct we take on in Cassington goes through the full routine: we test the grease first, remove thick deposits by hand and degrease what’s left. Post-clean readings and pictures complete the record. If you have grease leaking from duct joints and ductwork that has never been cleaned, we can put it right, from multi-storey ducts, horizontal duct runs and bends and junctions onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Cassington, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Different parts, different methods
Bends and transitions
Transitions from the canopy spigot into the duct catch a lot of grease. We clean it from the canopy side or through a nearby panel.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
A duct that climbs several floors may be cleaned over more than one visit. Visits are planned around the building’s hours, out of hours where possible.
Leave it or put it right?
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, which is why the duct matters as much as the canopy. A fault that closes a site in a village like Cassington affects everyone who depends on it.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Cassington and across Oxfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Kitchen extracts in Cassington
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs in and around Cassington, up to about a mile and a half out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Cassington sits within the area of Oxfordshire 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. Kitchens in Cassington get their food hygiene inspections from West Oxfordshire council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
School kitchens, at schools like St Peter's Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hospital like Radcliffe Infirmary, about 4.1 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- 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, photos and a next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Cassington
A greasy duct is a fire path, in Cassington as anywhere. Burning grease can carry fire through the ductwork to other rooms or floors, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Grease pooling at the foot of the riser
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
- Years of grease along the duct floor
- An insurer asking for TR19 evidence
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Cassington (Blenheim Palace is about 3.4 miles north), fitting access panels needs care.

FAQs for Cassington
Which fire service covers Cassington?
It’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Cassington. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can a school canteen extract in Cassington be done out of term time?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 3 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Cassington, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your term dates and we will plan around them.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before work begins.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Is Cassington in your area?
Yes. We work in Cassington and across Oxfordshire, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
What happens if there are not enough access panels?
We clean everything we can reach and record what we can’t. Extra panels can be installed, and we can do that for you.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
We measure it. Readings are taken by Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). A mean above 200 microns, or 500 microns at any point, means it’s due.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Book the next clean before the recommended date
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Leave a way through to the access panels
- Do not switch the extract off early
File the paperwork in the maintenance log. It’s the evidence an insurer or inspector may ask for, and the pictures make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Run the extract the whole time the kitchen is cooking. Moving air carries vapour through rather than letting it settle, so switching off early adds to the build-up.

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. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
