Ductwork cleaning in Lamberhurst Quarter, done properly
Between the canopy and the fan runs the ductwork, hidden above ceilings and inside walls. Grease settles along every metre of it and a fire in the duct can spread through the building. Our ductwork cleaning reaches inside the runs and risers through access panels, to BESA TR19® Grease. The work covers vertical risers, horizontal duct runs and attenuators, and the jobs we see most are years of grease along the duct floor and a rancid smell from the extract duct.
In a small place like Lamberhurst Quarter, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Attenuators
- Vertical risers

Leave it or put it right?
There’s no law that names TR19. 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 Lamberhurst Quarter can be fitted around your bookings and events.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us

Kitchen extracts in Lamberhurst Quarter
Lamberhurst Quarter is about 33 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Food hygiene inspections in Lamberhurst Quarter are the job of Tunbridge Wells council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Pembury Hospital (about 3.1 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

What the work involves, part by part
Vertical risers
Risers often pass through floors and walls, where fire dampers may be fitted. Damper testing is a separate service.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
In a building with several floors, the duct may pass other tenants’ spaces. Access is planned with the building’s managers, so the clean is done safely and quietly.
What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. In a small place like Lamberhurst Quarter, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep the fan on while anything is cooking
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps
Every panel we open is refitted when we finish, and the area around them is cleaned down. Grease and dirty water are contained and removed.
Some signs mean the duct needs attention sooner: grease leaking from duct joints, smells, or a fan that sounds rough. Testing will show whether any section has reached 500 microns.
