How we handle ductwork cleaning in Greywell

Not sure when the ductwork was last cleaned? Tell us about the system when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and a fixed price will follow, typically within one working day. The work covers attenuators, vertical risers and horizontal duct runs, and the jobs we see most are stale grease odours from the duct and a duct nobody has opened in years.

In a small place like Greywell, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

How it works

We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Greywell can be planned properly.

  1. First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
  2. You get a fixed price before work starts.
  3. Each section is cleaned in turn through its access panel.
  4. Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
  5. Readings, pictures and a recommended next clean date complete the job.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Getting a quote

Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What happens if it’s left?

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. With notice, the visit to Greywell can be fitted around your bookings and events.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

What you get with us

  • One number for every site across the South East and London
  • A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
  • Fixed quotes from a survey or pictures

Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Greywell

A greasy duct is a fire path, in Greywell as anywhere. Once it lights, fire can spread along the duct and into other areas, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.

Clients usually contact us when they notice something like this:

  • A duct nobody has opened in years
  • Sections of duct with no access panels
  • Grease leaking from duct joints
  • Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test

If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Fleet Community Hospital about 5.6 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Before booking anyone

  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
  • Whether the price is fixed

What affects the quote in Greywell

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:

  • How big the system is
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Parking and loading at the site

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Helping us quote

We can often survey from photos. Try to include:

  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

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.

Questions from Greywell

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Greywell?

In Greywell, it’s Hart council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Will you come out to Greywell?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Greywell is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

How do you know if the ductwork needs cleaning?

A grease thickness test gives the answer. Readings are taken by Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). BESA guidance says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns, and 500 or more anywhere needs immediate spot cleaning.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.

What accreditations do you have?

CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

Do you install duct access panels?

Yes. The survey or clean shows where sections couldn’t be reached, and we can fit them so those sections are cleaned in future.

What happens if there are not enough access panels?

Every reachable section is cleaned and the rest recorded. Extra panels can be installed, and we can do that for you.

Ductwork cleaning around Greywell

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 10 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Greywell and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where they cook under a canopy, grease does not stop at the filters: it settles along the duct and up the riser. Food hygiene inspections in Greywell are the job of Hart council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. The fire and rescue service for Greywell is Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.

Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere in Greywell, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Robert May's School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

When something else is needed

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Duct sections that need replacing
  • Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
  • A damper stuck open in the duct

If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Where we work

  • Multi-storey ducts
  • Access panels
  • Attenuators
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Vertical risers
  • Bends and junctions

How the job changes from site to site

Bends and transitions

Bends, elbows and changes of size are where grease collects most. Slowing air leaves grease behind, so these points get extra attention.

Vertical risers

Risers often pass through floors and walls, so fire dampers may be fitted where it crosses them. We test those as a separate job.
