Ductwork cleaning in Newtown, Isle of Wight
Ductwork cleaning in Newtown, surveyed first and signed off with a written report and photos. Call for a fixed quote.
- Stale grease odours from the duct
- A grease test showing the duct is overdue
- Grease leaking from duct joints
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Diarise the next duct clean
- Keep access panels clear of stored items
File the paperwork in the maintenance log. 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. A change in cooking hours may change the interval under BESA guidance, and grease thickness testing will show it.
Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Newtown
Not every duct has enough access panels. Where a section cannot be reached, TR19 expects it to be recorded on the report, and we can fit new access panels so it’s cleaned next time. It’s better to know than to assume. We are often asked to deal with years of grease along the duct floor and thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct, across horizontal duct runs, multi-storey ducts and attenuators.
In a village or hamlet like Newtown, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually 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.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Why it’s worth doing now 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, which is why the duct matters as much as the canopy. A fault that closes a site in a village like Newtown affects everyone who depends on it.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. For a village or hamlet like Newtown, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- We open the panels and scrape out the heaviest grease.
- Next the ducts and risers are degreased, using whatever suits the deposit.
- Readings and pictures are repeated and any section we couldn’t reach is recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
How to get a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what ductwork cleaning will not do:
- A damper stuck open in the duct
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Bends and junctions
- Vertical risers
- Access panels
- Attenuators
- Multi-storey ducts
- Horizontal duct runs
What the work involves, part by part
Vertical risers
Risers are cleaned through panels at different levels. Any part that can’t be safely reached is recorded.
Bends and transitions
Wherever the duct turns or changes size, grease builds up. Slowing air leaves grease behind, so these points get extra attention.

Newtown kitchens: local notes
At about 1 mile from the coast, Newtown is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. In Newtown, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Isle of Wight council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Newtown sits within the area of 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.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Newtown (Swainston Manor is about 1.6 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care. Church and community hall kitchens, near Holy Spirit Church or anywhere around Newtown, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like St Mary's Hospital about 4 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
Newtown is about 4 miles west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Whether your site is in the middle of Newtown or further out, ductwork cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates. Newtown is one of 125 places in the Isle of Wight we cover for commercial clients. For sites nearby, see our Southampton page, about 14 miles away.
Work in PO30 follows the same survey, fixed quote and written report as everywhere else we cover. Close by, we work in Locksgreen (1 mile east), Porchfield (1 mile north-east), Great Thorness (2 miles north-east), Forest Side (3 miles east) and Rew Street (4 miles north-east). We also work in nearby towns such as Newport (4 miles east), Ryde (10 miles east), Cowes (5 miles north-east), Sandown (11 miles east), Shanklin (11 miles south-east) and Ventnor (11 miles south-east). If your site is somewhere remote, a little more planning is needed, so let us know when you get in touch.
What’s near Newtown
Nearby you will also find St Mary's Hospital (4 miles east) and Carisbrooke Castle (3.7 miles south-east). Not far away are Brighstone Down.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Newtown and across the Isle of Wight. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Newtown: your questions answered
Is Newtown within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Newtown is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can sea air affect ductwork cleaning in Newtown?
It can, as Newtown is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at each visit.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What should I send you?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you will get one fixed quote.
How we price ductwork cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
What to send for a quote:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.
