Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Enham Alamein
Not sure when the ductwork was last cleaned? A few details about the system are a good start when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll send you a fixed quote for ductwork cleaning, typically within one working day. If you have readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test and fat dripping from the ductwork, we can put it right, from attenuators, multi-storey ducts and vertical risers onwards.
In a small place like Enham Alamein, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Enham Alamein.
- The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and photos repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Common questions in Enham Alamein
Which fire service covers Enham Alamein?
Fire safety enforcement in Enham Alamein is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Will you come out to Enham Alamein?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Enham Alamein included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
How do you know if the ductwork needs cleaning?
A grease thickness test gives the answer. Using a Wet Film Thickness Test or Deposit Thickness Test, we check the grease at set points. BESA guidance says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns, and 500 or more anywhere needs immediate spot cleaning.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Faulty fire dampers
- Parts of the duct with no way in
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises

Part by part
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Ducts in taller or shared buildings often run past other occupiers. Access is planned with the building’s managers, so the clean is done safely and quietly.
Attenuators and discharge
At the end of the duct is the discharge. Grease can collect there and stain the area around it, so it’s cleaned as far as safe access allows.
Kitchen extracts in Enham Alamein
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Enham Alamein. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Enham Alamein is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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 Enham Alamein get their food hygiene inspections from Test Valley council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Saint George, or anywhere in Enham Alamein, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
