Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Pinewood Village
We’ve been trading since 2009, working across London and the South East. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and our certificates are issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers horizontal duct runs, vertical risers and attenuators, and common reasons people get in touch are heavy grease at the base of a riser and grease seeping out of the duct seams.
Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like Pinewood Village gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
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, and we’re fully insured.

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The condition we find in the survey
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How big the system is
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, 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.
What else we do in Pinewood Village
Do you need ductwork cleaning in Pinewood Village?
Grease settles fastest where the air slows down. 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.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
- Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test
- An insurer asking for TR19 evidence
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Bordon Junior School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Comparing quotes
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- What insurance they carry
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Tell us if grease leaks from the ductwork
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Check readings when the menu changes
After the clean, the same points are tested again, so the report shows the before and after figures. Before and after pictures sit next to the numbers.
Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.
What happens if it’s left?
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. A quieter site near Pinewood Village still needs its system looked after.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Pinewood Village
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. 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 pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. In a place like Pinewood Village, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
- We open the panels and scrape out the heaviest grease.
- Next the ducts and risers are degreased, using whatever suits the deposit.
- Readings and photos are repeated and any section we couldn’t reach is recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Pinewood Village
Is Pinewood Village within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Pinewood Village is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work in Pinewood Village outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Pinewood Village keeps running as normal. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
What if part of the duct cannot be reached?
Ductwork needs access to be cleaned. We record those sections on the report and can fit access panels.
What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?
When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19 clean, you get a TR19 certificate and a photo report. The report shows readings, pictures and any sections we couldn’t reach.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
How often does extract ductwork need cleaning?
At least as often as BESA guidance sets for your cooking hours. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means at least every 3 months, while lighter use can go longer.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
Pinewood Village kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records include about 5 pubs and bars in Pinewood Village and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Kitchens in Pinewood Village get their food hygiene inspections from East Hampshire council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Pinewood Village is 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 you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Mark's Sacred Church or elsewhere in Pinewood Village, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
