Duct cleaning in Perrywood
For ductwork cleaning in Perrywood, one call is all it takes, from survey to sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- Duct runs with no cleaning record
- Gaps where access panels were never fitted
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
How it works
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. In a small place like Perrywood, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- Access panels are opened and heavy deposits scraped out by hand.
- Horizontal runs and risers are then degreased by the method that suits the deposit.
- Readings and photos are repeated and any section we couldn’t reach is recorded.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Work in a small place like Perrywood starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Perrywood kitchens: local notes
At about 47 miles from central London, Perrywood sits well inside the area we cover. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Environmental health officers from Swale council inspect food businesses in Perrywood. 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.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Belmont House and Gardens is about 3.4 miles west), access may need planning. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Perrywood, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
FAQs for Perrywood
Which fire authority looks after Perrywood?
Perrywood is in the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you come to Perrywood after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Perrywood doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Can you fit access panels in our ductwork?
Yes, extra panels can be fitted. That lets the next clean reach sections that were missed, and the report will show where they’re needed.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before we start.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.

Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Why it’s worth doing now in Perrywood
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 right away. Putting off the clean only pushes readings higher. In a small place like Perrywood, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

What affects the quote in Perrywood
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- The condition of the system
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How many systems or sites are involved
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will normally have a quote within one working day.
Part by part
Attenuators and discharge
The last section of duct before the discharge is often the coolest, so it can collect more grease than expected. We include it in the clean and the readings.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Long ducts in larger buildings can mean several visits. We agree a sequence that suits the building, out of hours where possible.
Common problems we fix in Perrywood
Slow air leaves the most grease behind. Long horizontal runs, bends, changes in size and the foot of a riser all collect more, and those are the points we pay most attention to.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Years of grease along the duct floor
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
- An insurer asking for TR19 evidence
For schools such as Selling Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
