FAQs for Lyneham
Do you work at weekends in Lyneham?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which environmental health team covers Lyneham?
In Lyneham, it’s West Oxfordshire council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Every site has its own report.
How do you know if the ductwork needs cleaning?
Start with the date of the last clean. No record, or a passed date, means it’s due, and grease readings will confirm how urgent it is.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lyneham
If the ducts in Lyneham haven’t been cleaned for a while, or nobody is sure when they were? A few details about the system are a good start when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will send you a fixed quote for ductwork cleaning, normally within one working day. Common call-outs are for grease pooling at the foot of the riser and a duct clean needed for an insurer, on bends and junctions, access panels and multi-storey ducts.
Work in a small place like Lyneham starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, 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.

Do you need ductwork cleaning in Lyneham?
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.
Clients usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
- Sections of duct with no access panels
In and around Lyneham, as anywhere, the clean ends with a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
When something else is needed
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Part by part
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.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Ducts in taller or shared buildings often run past other occupiers. We plan access with you and the building manager, so the clean is done safely and quietly.

What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Lyneham.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
- 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 photos go into the report, with any unreachable section listed.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know about parking and loading

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Why deal with it now?
A dirty duct is something insurers ask about. 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. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Lyneham is calmer for everyone.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
Why Lyneham businesses choose us
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001

Ductwork cleaning in Lyneham: the local picture
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens in Lyneham and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Each kitchen that cooks under a canopy sends grease-laden air into a duct, where it cools and settles. In Lyneham, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from West Oxfordshire council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Lyneham sits within the area of Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Whether the kitchen is in Lyneham itself or nearby, a TR19® clean covers the whole system, canopy to discharge.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
