How we handle ductwork cleaning in Laverstoke
No two duct runs are the same, in Laverstoke or anywhere else. Some run a short distance to an outside wall, others climb several floors to the roof. The survey traces the route, so we know where to get in and how long it will take. Common call-outs are for grease leaking from duct joints and grease pooling at the foot of the riser, across multi-storey ducts, access panels and vertical risers.
For a kitchen in or near Laverstoke, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, 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.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. 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.

Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Laverstoke
Which environmental health team covers Laverstoke?
That’s Basingstoke and Deane council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Laverstoke. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do you work overnight in Laverstoke?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Laverstoke can fit around your hours. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
How long does it take to clean extract ducts?
Short runs are quick, but long or complex ducts may take several visits. Visits are planned out of hours.
What if part of the duct can’t be reached?
Sections out of reach are written down on the report, in line with TR19. We can fit new access panels so they’re cleaned next time.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Do I get a certificate for ductwork cleaning?
You get a photo report with before and after photos, plus a TR19 certificate when the whole system is cleaned. File them with the fire risk assessment.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll usually reply within one working day.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
What the work involves, part by part
Access panels
After cleaning, every panel is closed and sealed, so grease and air stay inside the duct. We will tell you if any panel needs replacing.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Long ducts in larger buildings can mean several visits. Visits are planned around the building’s hours, out of hours where possible.
When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A failed fan motor at the end of the duct (a fan repair job)
- Duct sections that need replacing
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The condition of the system
- The scale of the work
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- A few general shots of the system
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The postcode and the type of business
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What else we do in Laverstoke
The process
Protection comes first: 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 few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers, and we clear up before we go. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Laverstoke run smoothly.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- Access panels are opened and heavy deposits scraped out by hand.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Move anything stored near the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Related advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Laverstoke
There’s no law that names TR19. The Fire Safety Order 2005 makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, including the grease inside the extract ductwork. Somewhere as small as Laverstoke, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What we are called out for in Laverstoke
Grease settles fastest where the air slows down. Long horizontal runs, bends, changes in size and the foot of a riser all collect more, and those are the points we pay most attention to.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Grease leaking from duct joints
- Sections of duct with no access panels
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
- Ductwork that has never been cleaned
For schools such as Testbourne Community School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
What your quote should include
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether a survey comes first

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
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, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
