How we handle ductwork cleaning in Hordle
Nobody sees duct grease building, so nobody notices it until something goes wrong. A flare-up drawn up from the range can light it, and fire can then run along the ductwork to other parts of the building. Cleaning the duct takes that fuel away. If you have high readings at a recent grease test and fat dripping from the ductwork, we can help, from horizontal duct runs, multi-storey ducts and vertical risers onwards.
For a smaller kitchen near Hordle, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

How it works
On the day, we arrive 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 floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. In a smaller place like Hordle, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- Diagnosis: a survey of the duct’s route, size and access.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
- Readings, pictures and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Different parts, different methods
Access panels
Extra panels can be installed where there are gaps, making future cleans more complete. We’ll recommend where they should go.
Bends and transitions
The join where the canopy meets the duct is a common hotspot. We reach it from the plenum side where possible.
What else we do in Hordle

Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the site is and how we reach it

You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will explain what it covers.

Why act early in Hordle
Grease narrows the duct and slows the air. Less air moves, so heat and smoke stay in the kitchen while the fan strains, and grease may start to leak from joints. A site near Hordle that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

What ductwork cleaning looks like in Hordle
Hordle is within about 2 miles of the coast. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 17 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 11 takeaways and sandwich shops within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hordle. Wherever those kitchens cook under a canopy, the horizontal runs and risers need cleaning as well as the hood. Fire safety in Hordle falls to 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.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Hordle, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Lymington New Forest Hospital about 3.3 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. School kitchens, at schools like Hordle CofE (VA) Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Hordle
Can a school canteen extract in Hordle be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Hordle, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Which environmental health team covers Hordle?
In Hordle, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
Start with the date of the last clean. No record, or a passed date, means it’s due, and grease readings will confirm how urgent it is.
Can you quote from photos?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
What information do you need?
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.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost in Hordle?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
