Ductwork cleaning in Northbridge Street, done properly
We’ve been trading since 2009, working across London and the South East. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, our duct cleaning is done to BESA TR19® Grease, and our certificates are issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers access panels, horizontal duct runs and multi-storey ducts, and common reasons people get in touch are a rancid smell from the extract duct and thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct.
In a village or hamlet like Northbridge Street, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually 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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Part by part
Attenuators and discharge
At the end of the duct is the discharge. Grease can collect there and stain the area around it, so it’s cleaned as far as safe access allows.
Bends and transitions
Wherever the duct turns or changes size, grease builds up. Slowing air leaves grease behind, so we clean these points carefully.
Why act early in Northbridge Street
TR19® is not law, but the duty to manage fire risk is. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, including the grease inside the extract ductwork. A planned visit to Northbridge Street is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll explain what it covers.

How it works
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Northbridge Street can be planned properly.
- We start by working out how the duct runs and where it can be opened.
- 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.
- We test again, take pictures and note any part that couldn’t be reached.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Northbridge Street
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Where the site is and how we reach it
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What ductwork cleaning looks like in Northbridge Street
Environmental health officers from Rother council inspect food businesses in Northbridge Street. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Northbridge Street, about 43 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near The Parish Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Northbridge Street, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Salehurst Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. A kitchen near Robertsbridge station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.
