Ductwork Cleaning in Epsom
One call covers cleaning of kitchen extract ductwork, horizontal runs and vertical risers through access panels in Epsom, from survey to sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
- A grease test showing the duct is overdue
- An insurer asking for TR19 evidence
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Epsom
Not every duct has enough access panels. TR19 calls for any section we couldn’t reach to be recorded, and we can fit new access panels so it’s cleaned next time. An honest report beats a guess. We are often asked to deal with readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test and a duct nobody has opened in years, on vertical risers, bends and junctions and attenuators.
For a pub, café or restaurant in a town like Epsom, losing a day’s trade to cleaning is not an option, so the work is done after service, overnight or on a closed day. The kitchen is handed back clean and ready to cook.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens on the day
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. Before the visit, a few pictures of the system and how to reach it help us plan the work in Epsom.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Heavy deposits come out by hand, then each section is degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Clear the space around the work
Getting a quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- A worn-out fan that needs replacing
- Sections that can’t be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Epsom
Keeping the system healthy
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Leave a way through to the access panels
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Keep the fan on while anything is cooking
- Diarise the next duct clean
The report gives a recommended next clean date, worked out from the grease we found and how long you cook each day, in line with BESA guidance.
Grease that never reaches the duct never needs cleaning out of it. Keep the filters clean, well fitted and in place whenever you cook.
Why act early in Epsom
A partly blocked duct slows the airflow. The fan works harder, the kitchen gets hotter and smoke lingers at the canopy, and grease may start to leak from joints. A small fault found now is a quick job; the same fault found later can close the site.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

How the job changes from site to site
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Long ducts in larger buildings can mean several visits. Visits are planned around the building’s hours, out of hours where possible.
Attenuators and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, quieten the extract, but they can hold grease in their linings. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
FAQs for Epsom
Can the work in Epsom be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Epsom doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Epsom during the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Epsom, the Food Standards Agency lists about 21 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Do I get a certificate for ductwork cleaning?
A photo report, with readings and before and after photos, plus a TR19 certificate for a full system clean. It also gives a recommended next clean date.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
Ductwork cleaning in Epsom: the local picture
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 109 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 48 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Epsom. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Epsom sits within the area of Surrey 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. In Epsom, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Epsom and Ewell council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
For kitchens close to Epsom station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. A hospital like Epsom General Hospital, about 0.8 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Where a hall near St. Barnabas Church, or anywhere in Epsom, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
