Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hog Hatch
Ductwork in Hog Hatch is cleaned the same thorough way as everywhere else we work: we test the grease first, remove thick deposits by hand and degrease what’s left. Readings are taken again afterwards and photos go into your report. If you have gaps where access panels were never fitted and stale grease odours from the duct, we can put it right, from multi-storey ducts, vertical risers and attenuators onwards.
For a smaller kitchen near Hog Hatch, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The scale of the work
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Helping us quote
What to send for a quote:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
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 pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Don’t switch the extract off early
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted whenever you cook
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
Every panel we open is refitted when we finish, and the surrounding area is left clean. Waste grease and water are taken away.
Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
How it works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. In a place like Hog Hatch, we fit the visit around your hours.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- Each section is cleaned in turn through its access panel.
- Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
- The duct is signed off with readings, pictures and a next clean date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
Related advice
Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Hog Hatch
Air cools as it moves away from the canopy. Cooling air drops its grease onto the inside of the duct, which is why ducts go on gathering grease well beyond the filters.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Proof of duct cleaning for the insurer
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Sections of duct with no access panels
- High readings at a recent grease test
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Mark the Evangelist Church or elsewhere in Hog Hatch, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Hog Hatch questions
Which fire service covers Hog Hatch?
Hog Hatch is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can a school canteen extract in Hog Hatch be done out of term time?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 6 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Hog Hatch. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can extra access doors be added to the duct?
Yes, we install duct access panels. Panels go where they give the best access to sections that couldn’t be reached, and we will recommend where.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Will the duct clean disrupt the kitchen?
We plan the clean when you’re not cooking. Overnight and weekend work is common, so no service is lost.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some photos and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
What’s involved in cleaning extract ducts?
We survey the route, test the grease, then open the access panels. Each run and riser is scraped and degreased, and test again when we are done.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Ductwork cleaning in Hog Hatch: the local picture
The FSA’s data shows about 18 pubs and bars registered in and around Hog Hatch, up to about a mile and a half out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. It’s Waverley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hog Hatch. 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. Fire safety in Hog Hatch falls to Surrey 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.

How the job changes from site to site
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. The paperwork suits landlords and managing agents.
Horizontal duct runs
Flat runs of duct link the canopy to the riser or the outside wall. Grease drops out of the slowing air along them, so each section is cleaned through its access panels.
