How the job changes from site to site
Vertical risers
A riser takes the duct up through one or more floors. Grease runs down the walls and gathers at the base, which is one of the points we test.
Bends and transitions
The join where the canopy meets the duct is a common hotspot. We clean it from the canopy side or through a nearby panel.
Ductwork cleaning in Hazeley
Every duct has its own route. A few metres to an outside wall, or a riser up through the building to a roof fan. We map the route during the survey and finds every access point before we quote. The work covers multi-storey ducts, access panels and attenuators, and the jobs we see most are an insurer asking for TR19 evidence and gaps where access panels were never fitted.
Somewhere as small as Hazeley, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens if it’s left?
Fire inside a duct is out of sight and out of reach. The duct can carry it to rooms, floors or roof spaces well away from the kitchen, which is why the duct matters as much as the canopy. A fault that closes a site in a village like Hazeley affects everyone who depends on it.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

Hazeley questions
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Hazeley?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Hazeley. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Which council inspects kitchens in Hazeley?
Food hygiene inspections in Hazeley are carried out by Hart council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do we have to stop cooking while the ducts are cleaned?
Only while we are working, and we work around you. Overnight and weekend work is common, so no service is lost.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
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 keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Can you fit access panels in our ductwork?
Yes, we fit access panels where the duct needs them. That lets the next clean reach sections that were missed, and the report will show where they’re needed.
What’s the cleaning interval for extract ductwork?
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.
How it works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. For a village or hamlet like Hazeley, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

What ductwork cleaning looks like in Hazeley
Look up Hazeley on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Hazeley. Where they cook under a canopy, grease does not stop at the filters: it settles along the duct and up the riser. Fire safety in Hazeley falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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. Kitchens in Hazeley get their food hygiene inspections from Hart council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Common problems we fix in Hazeley
The further the air travels from the cooking, the cooler it gets. As it cools, the grease it carries condenses onto the duct walls, so duct runs keep collecting grease long after the canopy.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Grease leaking from duct joints
- Grease pooling at the foot of the riser
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Mattingley Church, or anywhere in Hazeley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

What affects the quote in Hazeley
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Any permits to work or inductions
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
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. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The site address and the type of premises
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Hazeley
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
