Advice
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Fifield
No two duct runs are the same, in Fifield or anywhere else. Some run a short distance to an outside wall, others climb several floors to the roof. We map the route during the survey, so we know where to get in and how long it will take. If you’re dealing with thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct and an insurer asking for TR19 evidence, we can put it right, from bends and junctions, vertical risers and access panels onwards.
Somewhere as small as Fifield, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
We have been trading since 2009, and 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.

Fifield questions
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Fifield out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 8 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Fifield. Send us your term dates when you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll fit the work in.
Is Fifield within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Fifield included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
How long does ductwork cleaning take?
It takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. The survey tells us how long your duct needs.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
When is the ductwork cleaned?
We clean while the kitchen is closed, evenings, overnight or at weekends. Equipment and the extract are switched off while we work.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Ductwork cleaning around Fifield
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens across Fifield and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Fifield is covered by Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Food hygiene inspections in Fifield are the job of Windsor and Maidenhead council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Church and community hall kitchens, near All Saints or anywhere around Fifield, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. For schools such as Braywood CofE First School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What affects the quote in Fifield
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The size of the system
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- A few general shots of the system
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- Faulty fire dampers
- Ductwork that was poorly designed
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.
What the work covers

Looking after it afterwards
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections can’t be reached
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted whenever you cook
- Do not switch the extract off early
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It shows when and where the clean was done and by whom.
Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Fifield and across Windsor and Maidenhead. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Do you need ductwork cleaning in Fifield?
A greasy duct is a fire path, in Fifield 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.
Look out for these warning signs:
- High readings at a recent grease test
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
- Sections of duct with no access panels
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Dorney Court is about 1.7 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
