How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Kingston Blount.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- Through the access panels, thick grease is removed by hand first.
- Horizontal runs and risers are then degreased by the method that suits the deposit.
- Post-clean readings and pictures go into the report, with any unreachable section listed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know about parking and loading

Advice
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Kingston Blount
No two duct runs are the same, in Kingston Blount or anywhere else. Some run a short distance to an outside wall, others climb several floors to the roof. The survey traces the route and finds every access point before we quote. We are often asked to deal with heavy grease at the base of a riser and years of grease along the duct floor, across multi-storey ducts, access panels and attenuators.
In a small place like Kingston Blount, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Part by part
Access panels
After cleaning, every panel is closed and sealed so the duct stays tight. We will tell you if any panel needs replacing.
Attenuators and discharge
Near the discharge, the air has cooled the most, so it can collect more grease than expected. It’s tested and cleaned along with the rest.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Don’t block access panels with shelving or stock
- Check readings when the menu changes
You’ll have a recommended date for the next clean, worked out from the grease we found and how long you cook each day, in line with BESA guidance.
Keep to the cleaning interval on the report. A change in cooking hours may change the interval under BESA guidance, and grease thickness testing will show it.

When to call us in Kingston Blount
Slow air leaves the most grease behind. Flat runs, bends, reducers and the base of risers are the usual hotspots, and those are the points we pay most attention to.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A grease test showing the duct is overdue
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- Years of grease along the duct floor
School kitchens, at schools like Aston Rowant Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What hours they’ll be on site
For landlords and multi-site operators
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Oxfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Common questions in Kingston Blount
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Kingston Blount?
Fire safety enforcement in Kingston Blount is handled by Oxfordshire 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.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Kingston Blount?
That is South Oxfordshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Kingston Blount. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
What’s involved in cleaning extract ducts?
We open each access panel and clean the section it reaches. Grease is scraped out first, then degreased, with readings taken before and after.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Do you cover Kingston Blount?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Kingston Blount included.
Will the duct clean disrupt the kitchen?
Out of hours, at a time that suits the kitchen. Larger systems may be cleaned over several nights, with the kitchen ready to cook each morning.
What should I send you?
A short description and a few photos plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
What happens if it’s left?
Insurers know the risk of a greasy duct. Many policies require TR19 cleaning, and a claim may be refused or reduced without evidence. Your certificate and photo report show the ducts were cleaned. If the system at a site near Kingston Blount fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
