Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Gordon Hill
Each extract duct we take on in Gordon Hill goes through the full routine: readings at set points, heavy grease scraped out by hand, then degreasing to suit the deposit. Readings are taken again afterwards and photos go into your report. We’re often asked to deal with grease leaking from duct joints and duct runs that can’t be reached, on multi-storey ducts, attenuators and horizontal duct runs.
Kitchens in Gordon Hill, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
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.

What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by ductwork cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- Duct sections that need replacing
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Gordon Hill questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Gordon Hill?
The local authority for Gordon Hill is Enfield council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can a school canteen extract in Gordon Hill be done out of term time?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 36 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Gordon Hill, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we have been trading since 2009.
How often does extract ductwork need cleaning?
BESA guidance sets minimum intervals by daily cooking hours: every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Grease readings may show it needs doing sooner.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
When is the ductwork cleaned?
Out of hours, at a time that suits the kitchen. Larger systems may be cleaned over several nights, with the kitchen ready to cook each morning.
What’s involved in cleaning extract ducts?
We get into the duct through its access panels. Thick deposits are removed by hand before degreasing, such as degreasers, hot water or steam.
What affects the quote in Gordon Hill
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The times the site is available
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The number of sites or systems
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
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 will price it together.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Different parts, different methods
Multi-storey and shared buildings
In a building with several floors, the duct may pass other tenants’ spaces. Access is planned with the building’s managers, so the clean is done safely and quietly.
Attenuators and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, quieten the extract, but they can hold grease in their linings. They’re cleaned where possible and recorded if not.
Kitchen extracts in Gordon Hill
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 29 bars, pubs and nightclubs in and around Gordon Hill, up to about a mile and a half out. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Gordon Hill are the job of Enfield council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. London jobs normally start after the last service, with loading and roof access agreed with the building first.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Gordon Hill is St Michaels Hospital, about under half a mile south-east. If you cook for passing trade around Gordon Hill station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Gordon Hill
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Gordon Hill and across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. 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.
How it works
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. Security desks and permits-to-work are routine in London, so let us know what your building in Gordon Hill needs from us.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- 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, pictures and a next clean date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

When to call us in Gordon Hill
Grease in a duct running from a kitchen in Gordon Hill is as much a fire risk as in any building. Once it lights, fire can spread along the duct and into other areas, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.
Clients typically contact us after spotting one of these:
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Stale grease odours from the duct
- Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Michael & All Angels, or anywhere in Gordon Hill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
What your quote should include
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
