How we handle ductwork cleaning in Keeper's Corner

If the ducts in Keeper's Corner haven’t been cleaned for a while, or nobody is sure when they were? Tell us about the system when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and a fixed price will follow, normally within one working day. Common call-outs are for duct runs with no cleaning record and an insurer asking for TR19 evidence, on bends and junctions, multi-storey ducts and horizontal duct runs.

In a village or hamlet like Keeper's Corner, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

We have been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.

What ductwork cleaning can’t fix

We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • A failed fan motor at the end of the duct (a fan repair job)
  • A damper stuck open in the duct
  • Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.

What the work covers

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

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:

  • The size of the system
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • The condition we find in the survey

A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What ductwork cleaning looks like in Keeper's Corner

According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 7 pubs, bars and clubs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Keeper's Corner. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. The fire and rescue service for Keeper's Corner is 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. Kitchens in Keeper's Corner get their food hygiene inspections from Mid Sussex council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

Bursars and site managers at schools such as Copthorne CofE Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What happens if it’s left?

Grease left in a duct in Keeper's Corner hardens over time. It bakes into a hard layer that takes far longer to remove, which makes each delayed clean a bigger one. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll talk you through it.

Keeper's Corner: your questions answered

Is Keeper's Corner within the area you cover?

Yes. Keeper's Corner is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can the work in Keeper's Corner be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Keeper's Corner needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

How much notice should we give?

Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

Can you clean ductwork with no access panels?

Any section we cannot reach is recorded on the report, as TR19 expects. New panels can be fitted to reach them in future.

What should I send you?

A short description and a few photos, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.

What shows that the ducts need a clean?

Signs include grease dripping from joints, smells and a fan working harder, but the only sure way is to measure. Grease thickness testing shows exactly where the duct stands.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.

Do you install duct access panels?

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.

Common problems we fix in Keeper's Corner

Damaged or poorly fitted filters let more grease into the duct. More grease reaches the ductwork than it should, and build-up speeds up.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Years of grease along the duct floor
  • Duct runs that can’t be reached
  • Grease leaking from duct joints
  • Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test

If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Keeper's Corner (Saint Hill Manor is about 4.8 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

Part by part

Access panels

We can fit new access panels where the duct needs them, making future cleans more complete. We’ll recommend where they should go.

Attenuators and discharge

Some systems have attenuators to reduce noise, but they can hold grease in their linings. They’re cleaned where possible and recorded if not.

What happens on the day

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Keeper's Corner knowing what to expect.

  1. First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
  2. Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
  3. Through the access panels, thick grease is removed by hand first.
  4. The duct is degreased with the method that suits the grease, from degreasers to hot water or steam.
  5. We test again, take pictures and note any part that couldn’t be reached.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
