Nalderswood ductwork cleaning
Need ductwork cleaning in Nalderswood? We survey first, give you a fixed quote and work around your opening hours, finishing with a written report and photos.

- Stale grease odours from the duct
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
Honest limits
Ductwork cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- Fire dampers that do not close (they need testing and remedials)
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What the work covers
- Access panels
- Vertical risers
- Bends and junctions
- Horizontal duct runs
- Attenuators
- Multi-storey ducts
Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Nalderswood
Grease in a duct is hidden, which is exactly why it’s dangerous. A flare-up drawn up from the range can light it, and fire can then run along the ductwork to other parts of the building. Cleaning the duct takes that fuel away. If you have thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct and an insurer asking for TR19 evidence, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Nalderswood, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Nalderswood can be planned properly.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Heavy deposits come out by hand, then each section is degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and pictures repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
How to get a quote
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections cannot be reached
Keep the certificate and report with the fire risk assessment. An insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask to see it, and the pictures make the duct’s condition easy to see.
The less grease gets past the canopy, the cleaner the duct stays. Clean, properly seated filters are the duct’s best protection.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
What we’re called out for in Nalderswood
The further the air travels from the cooking, the cooler it gets. As it cools, the grease it carries condenses onto the duct walls, so duct runs keep collecting grease long after the canopy.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grease leaking from duct joints
- Sections of duct with no access panels
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Thick crusts of old grease along the duct
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Bartholomew, or anywhere in Nalderswood, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
What your quote should include
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- What records you will receive afterwards
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- What hours they’ll be on site
FAQs for Nalderswood
Can you come to Nalderswood after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Nalderswood?
Food hygiene inspections in Nalderswood are carried out by Mole Valley council. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost in Nalderswood?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How easy every part is to reach
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.
Why it’s worth doing now in Nalderswood
Fire inside a duct is out of sight and out of reach. The duct can carry it to rooms, floors or roof spaces well away from the kitchen, which is why the duct matters as much as the canopy. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Nalderswood is calmer for everyone.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Why us?
- Fixed quotes from a survey or pictures
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- We are fully insured
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
