What affects the quote in Holybourne
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- How big the system is
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- 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 showing the whole system and its surroundings
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: 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.
Ductwork cleaning in Holybourne, done properly
The ductwork is where an extract clean is won or lost. Sections with no way in can go uncleaned for years. We open up every reachable section and record any we can’t reach, so you know exactly where you stand. If you are dealing with stale grease odours from the duct and thick crusts of old grease along the duct, we can help.
Work in a small place like Holybourne starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the fan on while anything is cooking
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted whenever you cook
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep access panels clear of stored items
Any section of duct we couldn’t reach is listed on the report, with the reason. You can then decide whether to have access panels fitted.
Have access panels fitted where sections cannot be reached. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.
Kitchen extracts in Holybourne
Food Standards Agency records include about 20 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels and B&Bs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Holybourne. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. The fire and rescue service for Holybourne is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Kitchens in Holybourne get their food hygiene inspections from East Hampshire 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.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Holy Rood Church or anywhere around Holybourne, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Bentworth Hall, about 4.6 miles west, is one of the historic houses near Holybourne; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Andrews' Endowed Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

When something else is needed
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ductwork cleaning won’t do:
- Fire dampers that don’t close (they need testing and remedials)
- A worn-out fan that needs replacing
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What happens if it’s left?
TR19® is not law, but the duty to manage fire risk is. The Fire Safety Order 2005 makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the duct is part of that. With notice, the visit to Holybourne can be fitted around your bookings and events.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

Access panels
Panels have to seal properly once they’re closed so the duct stays tight. We’ll tell you if any panel needs replacing.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
In a shared building, the duct links the kitchen to other spaces, so the responsible person has more reason to keep it clean. The paperwork suits landlords and managing agents.
Holybourne questions
Can you come to Holybourne after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Holybourne keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Holybourne?
That is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do I get a certificate for ductwork cleaning?
A full system clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. The report shows readings, photos and any sections we couldn’t reach.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we usually come back within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we will survey first.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Can extra access doors be added to the duct?
Yes, we fit access panels where the duct needs them. It means more of the duct can be cleaned next time, and the report will show where they’re needed.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before we start, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Holybourne run smoothly.
- 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.
- Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
- Readings, photos and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about parking and loading
