Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Norney
We treat ductwork like a doctor treats arteries: diagnose where grease has built up, clear it and confirm the result. Readings taken before and after show the difference, alongside before and after photos. Common call-outs are for thick crusts of old grease along the duct and stale grease odours from the duct, on multi-storey ducts, access panels and vertical risers.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Norney
Under BESA guidance, the mean grease level should stay at or below 200 microns between cleans. A reading of 500 microns or more at any point means a spot clean straight away. Putting off the clean only pushes readings higher. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Why us?
- Photo reports with every job
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Full insurance on every job
- Fixed quotes, typically within one working day

Part by part
Multi-storey and shared buildings
A duct that climbs several floors may be cleaned over more than one visit. We agree a sequence that suits the building, out of hours where possible.
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.
Common problems we fix in Norney
Many ducts don’t have enough access panels. Stretches with no way in may never have been touched, and grease there keeps thickening unseen.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Ductwork that has never been cleaned
- Gaps where access panels were never fitted
- Thick crusts of old grease along the duct
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
For schools such as St Mary's CofE Voluntary Controlled Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

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. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Norney can be planned properly.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- Each section is cleaned in turn through its access panel.
- Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
- Readings, photos and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know about parking and loading
Get a fixed quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
Kitchen extracts in Norney
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in and around Norney, up to about a mile and a half out. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Norney is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. It’s Guildford council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Norney. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Norney, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Loseley Park is about 2.5 miles north-east), access may need planning.

Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Norney
Do you cover smaller places like Norney?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Norney is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Norney out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Norney. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
How far ahead should we book?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What happens if there are not enough access panels?
Without a way in, a section cannot be cleaned properly. We record those sections on the report and can fit access panels.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?
Readings, pictures and, for a full clean, a TR19 certificate. It also gives a recommended next clean date.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
When is the ductwork cleaned?
We clean while the kitchen is closed, so evenings, nights and weekends are all possible. The extract and cooking equipment need to be off.
