Ductwork cleaning for sites in Coxtie Green

When something else is needed

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Ductwork that’s corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
  • A damper stuck open in the duct
  • A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Bends and junctions
  • Multi-storey ducts
  • Attenuators
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Access panels
  • Vertical risers

Ductwork cleaning in Coxtie Green

Not every duct has enough access panels. TR19 calls for any section we couldn’t reach to be recorded, and new panels can be fitted to reach it in future. An honest report beats a guess. The work covers attenuators, multi-storey ducts and access panels, and common reasons people get in touch are a rancid smell from the extract duct and years of grease along the duct floor.

Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part

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.

Vertical risers

A riser takes the duct up through one or more floors. Grease runs down the walls and gathers at the base, so the base is one of our test points.

What we do, step by step

There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. The timing of a visit to Coxtie Green is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
  2. Grease thickness is measured at set points.
  3. Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
  4. Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
  5. Panels are closed, readings and photos repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Looking after it afterwards

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Diarise the next duct clean
  • Run the extract fan throughout service
  • Leave a way through to the access panels
  • Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps

Grease readings are taken again at the same set points, giving you before and after readings. Before and after photos sit next to the numbers.

The less grease gets past the canopy, the cleaner the duct stays. Clean, properly seated filters are the duct’s best protection.

What happens if it’s left?

Grease left in a duct in Coxtie Green hardens over time. Heat and age turn it into a thick, stubborn crust, which makes each delayed clean a bigger one. A fault that closes a site in a village like Coxtie Green affects everyone who depends on it.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Coxtie Green

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Coxtie Green?

Food hygiene inspections in Coxtie Green are carried out by Brentwood council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Can the work in Coxtie Green be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Coxtie Green can fit around your hours. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.

How long does ductwork cleaning take?

Short runs are quick, but long or complex ducts may take several visits. We plan the work around your kitchen.

What do you do with what you remove?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.

What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?

Readings, photos and, for a full clean, a TR19 certificate. The report says when the next clean is due.

Do you cover Coxtie Green?

Yes. Coxtie Green is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.

What does ductwork cleaning cost?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

What is TR19?

A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.

When to call us in Coxtie Green

Wherever the kitchen is, in Coxtie Green or elsewhere, the duct fills in the same way: daily cooking hours, the menu and the state of the filters. Under BESA guidance, the minimum interval is 3, 6 or 12 months, by daily cooking hours.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
  • High readings at a recent grease test
  • Years of grease along the duct floor
  • A duct clean needed for an insurer

Church and community hall kitchens, near Trinity Church or anywhere around Coxtie Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What to look for in a quote

  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether a survey comes first

Our hiring checklist

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

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.

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
