FAQs for Froyle
Can you get to a site in Froyle?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Froyle included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Who inspects food businesses in Froyle?
That is East Hampshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Froyle. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How do you clean inside the ductwork?
Each section is cleaned through its own panel. Grease is scraped out first, then degreased, with readings taken before and after.
What’s the cleaning interval for extract ductwork?
It follows the same interval as the whole extract, from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use. Grease thickness testing shows whether that is often enough.
How long does it take to clean extract ducts?
It depends on the length of the duct, the number of access panels and how much grease there is. As a guide, it takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost in Froyle?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Froyle
If the ducts in Froyle haven’t been cleaned for a while, or nobody is sure when they were? Tell us about the system when you ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll send you a fixed quote for ductwork cleaning, normally within one working day. Typical jobs include heavy grease at the base of a riser and years of grease along the duct floor, across vertical risers, multi-storey ducts and horizontal duct runs.
Somewhere as small as Froyle, 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, whatever the size of the place.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What ductwork cleaning looks like in Froyle
It’s East Hampshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Froyle. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Froyle. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary of the Assumption or elsewhere in Froyle, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
The process
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Froyle.
- Diagnosis: a survey of the duct’s route, size and access.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- Each section is cleaned in turn through its access panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- The duct is signed off with readings, photos and a next clean date.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

What affects the quote in Froyle
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The size of the system
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The condition we find in the survey
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any previous report or certificate
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Need a price for ductwork cleaning? Please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with a few details about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before you commit to anything.

What we’re called out for in Froyle
Wherever the kitchen is, in Froyle or elsewhere, the duct fills in the same way: hours of cooking, the type of food and how well the filters are kept. Under BESA guidance, the minimum interval is 3, 6 or 12 months, by daily cooking hours.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Grease pooling at the foot of the riser
- An insurer asking for TR19 evidence
- Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test
- Stale grease odours from the duct
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Froyle is Alton Community Hospital, about 4.5 miles south-west.
Before you book anyone
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Proof of insurance
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
Leave it or put it right?
Insurers know the risk of a greasy duct. Many require cleaning to TR19, and they can refuse or reduce a claim without proof. Your certificate and photo report show the ducts were cleaned. In a small place like Froyle, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Book the next clean before the recommended date
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Store the certificate with the fire risk assessment
You will have a recommended date for the next clean, worked out from the grease we found and how long you cook each day, in line with BESA guidance.
Keep to the cleaning interval on the report. A change in cooking hours may change the interval under BESA guidance, and grease thickness testing will show it.
How the job changes from site to site
Bends and transitions
A bend can hold far more grease than a straight run of the same length. It’s scraped out and degreased, and readings are taken there before and after.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
A fire in a duct in a shared building can affect far more than one kitchen, which makes keeping it clean all the more important. Your certificate and report give building managers the record they need.
