Greater London · Ductwork cleaning
Ductwork cleaning in Neasden, Greater London
Ductwork cleaning for Neasden, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. 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.
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Neasden
Not every duct has enough access panels. Where a section can’t be reached, TR19 expects it to be recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted to reach it in future. An honest report beats a guess. We are often asked to deal with thick crusts of old grease along the duct and an insurer asking for TR19 evidence, on horizontal duct runs, attenuators and vertical risers.
Kitchens in Neasden, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

When it’s something else
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Duct sections that need replacing
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- A worn-out fan that needs replacing

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections cannot be reached
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Don’t switch the extract off early
- Check readings when the menu changes
A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It records the date, the location and the technician.
Keep to the cleaning interval on the report. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval may need to shorten, and grease thickness testing will show it.
Why deal with it now?
Grease narrows the duct and slows the air. The fan works harder, the kitchen gets hotter and smoke lingers at the canopy, and grease may start to leak from joints. In Neasden, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.

Neasden: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Neasden?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Can parking be tricky for a job in Neasden?
Tell us where a van can stop near your site in Neasden, and about any building rules on loading. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Will I get a report after the ducts are cleaned?
When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19 clean, you get a TR19 certificate and a photo report. The report shows readings, pictures and any sections we couldn’t reach.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we usually come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few pictures plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
Kitchen extracts in Neasden
Food Standards Agency records list about 157 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 153 takeaways across Neasden and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Behind every canopy among them is a run of ductwork that collects grease out of sight. Environmental health officers from Brent council inspect food businesses in Neasden. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Neasden sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. 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.
Where a hall near St Catherine's Church Neasden with St Paul, or anywhere in Neasden, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Historic houses near Neasden, such as Fenton House about 2.9 miles east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

How the visit 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. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. Expect the work in Neasden to happen after your last customer leaves, not during trading.
- The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- 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 photos repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
How to prepare
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Do you need ductwork cleaning in Neasden?
Grease filters that do not seal let fat straight through. More grease reaches the ductwork than it should, and build-up speeds up.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
- Grease pooling at the foot of the riser
- Duct runs that can’t be reached
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Neasden is Neasden Hospital, about 0.7 miles south-west.
