Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lower Green
Each extract duct we take on in Lower Green goes through the full routine: readings at set points, heavy grease scraped out by hand, then degreasing to suit the deposit. Readings are taken again afterwards and photos go into your report. Typical jobs include readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test and sections of duct with no access panels, across access panels, attenuators and multi-storey ducts.
Work in a small place like Lower Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Lower Green
Damaged or poorly fitted filters let more grease into the duct. The duct then takes grease that the filters should have stopped and it fills faster.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Gaps where access panels were never fitted
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Lower Green is Petersfield Community Hospital, about 4.1 miles south.

How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. The timing of a visit to Lower Green is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- 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.
- The duct is signed off with readings, pictures and a next clean date.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about parking and loading
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Advice
What a clean won’t put right
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Duct sections that need replacing
- Ductwork that was poorly designed
- Parts of the duct with no way in
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
What the work covers
- Horizontal duct runs
- Multi-storey ducts
- Attenuators
- Bends and junctions
- Vertical risers
- Access panels
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t switch the extract off early
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Keep access panels clear of stored items
- Flag drips from the duct straight away
You will 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.
The less grease gets past the canopy, the cleaner the duct stays. Keep the filters clean, well fitted and in place whenever you cook.

Grease, kitchens and Lower Green

The fire and rescue service for Lower Green is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Lower Green
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
What the work involves, part by part
Attenuators and discharge
The discharge is where the duct ends and air leaves the building. It can gather grease and mark the wall or roof around it, so it’s cleaned as far as safe access allows.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
In a shared building, the duct links the kitchen to other spaces, so the responsible person has more reason to keep it clean. The paperwork suits landlords and managing agents.
Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Lower Green
Can you come to Lower Green after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Lower Green needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Is Lower Green within the area you cover?
Yes, Lower Green is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How often does extract ductwork need cleaning?
The duct is cleaned as part of the whole system, at intervals set by BESA guidance, ranging from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Readings tell you if it needs to be more often.
Are you insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Do I get a certificate for ductwork cleaning?
A photo report, with readings and before and after photos, plus a TR19 certificate for a full system clean. It also gives a recommended next clean date.
How long does it take to clean extract ducts?
It takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. The survey tells us how long your duct needs.
