How we handle ductwork cleaning in Eastling
In doctor’s terms, the ductwork is the system’s arteries: find the blockages, clear them, then check the flow is right. Readings taken before and after show the difference, alongside before and after photos. If you have thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct and readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test, we can help, from attenuators, multi-storey ducts and bends and junctions onwards.
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.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Eastling: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Eastling?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can the work in Eastling be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Eastling needn’t be disturbed. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost in Eastling?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote and we will normally reply within one working day.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
What’s the cleaning interval for extract ductwork?
BESA guidance sets minimum intervals by daily cooking hours: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate and 12-monthly for light use. Grease readings may show it needs doing sooner.
What the work involves, part by part
Bends and transitions
Wherever the duct turns or changes size, grease builds up. Slowing air leaves grease behind, so these points get extra attention.
Attenuators and discharge
The last section of duct before the discharge is often the coolest, so it can collect more grease than expected. We include it in the clean and the readings.
What affects the quote in Eastling
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Problems your staff have spotted
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Eastling can be planned properly.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
- We open the panels and scrape out the heaviest grease.
- Next the ducts and risers are degreased, using whatever suits the deposit.
- Readings and photos are repeated and any section we couldn’t reach is recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Eastling and across Kent. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
- Do not block access panels with shelving or stock
- Tell us if grease leaks from the ductwork
Keep the certificate and report with the fire risk assessment. An insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask to see it, and the pictures make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Have access panels fitted where sections can’t be reached. It doesn’t stop grease forming, but it stops it building unseen.
