Ductwork cleaning in Newtown, done properly
Ductwork in Newtown is cleaned the same thorough way as everywhere else we work: we test the grease first, remove thick deposits by hand and degrease what’s left. Readings are taken again afterwards and pictures go into your report. If you have high readings at a recent grease test and grease leaking from duct joints, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Newtown, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What the work involves, part by part
Vertical risers
A riser takes the duct up through one or more floors. Grease collects on the walls and at the foot of the riser, which is one of the points we test.
Horizontal duct runs
Horizontal runs carry the extract along ceilings and through voids. Grease drops out of the slowing air along them, and we clean them section by section through access panels.
Kitchen extracts in Newtown
The Food Standards Agency lists about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses across Newtown and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Newtown is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Food hygiene inspections in Newtown are the job of Winchester City council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
For schools such as Newtown Soberton Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Newtown, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Newtown is Knowle Hospital, about 3.8 miles south-west.
Newtown is about 5 miles north-west of Waterlooville, in Hampshire. We provide ductwork cleaning for commercial premises of every kind in Newtown and the rest of Hampshire. Newtown is one of 683 towns, villages and districts in Hampshire we cover for ductwork cleaning. Our Portsmouth page covers sites nearby, about 8 miles away.

Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Flag drips from the duct straight away
- Don’t switch the extract off early
- Store the certificate with the fire risk assessment
Keep the certificate and report with the fire risk assessment. It’s the evidence an insurer or inspector may ask for, and the pictures make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Book the next duct clean before the date passes. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval may need to shorten, and grease thickness testing will show it.
Why act early in Newtown
A fire in a greasy duct is hard to reach and hard to stop. The duct can carry it to rooms, floors or roof spaces well away from the kitchen, so cleaning the duct is as important as cleaning the hood. Planning a trip to Newtown ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.

What ductwork cleaning can’t fix
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
- A damper stuck open in the duct
- A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Newtown
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
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’re happy to quote for all of it.
How we price ductwork cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- What state the system is in
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
If you need ductwork cleaning in Newtown, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Newtown knowing what to expect.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
- Readings, photos and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us where we can park and unload
How to get a quote
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
