Ductwork cleaning in Privett, Hampshire
Ductwork cleaning for Privett, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
- Years of grease along the duct floor
- Stale grease odours from the duct
Part by part
Bends and transitions
A bend can hold far more grease than a straight run of the same length. It’s scraped out and degreased, and readings are taken there before and after.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
In a building with several floors, the duct may pass other tenants’ spaces. Access is planned with the building’s managers, so the clean is done safely and quietly.
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Privett
If the ducts in Privett haven’t been cleaned for a while, or nobody is sure when they were? Tell us about the system when you call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and a fixed price will follow, typically within one working day. We are often asked to deal with thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct and gaps where access panels were never fitted, on vertical risers, attenuators and horizontal duct runs.
In a village or hamlet like Privett, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally 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.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
What affects the quote in Privett
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The condition of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How easy every part is to reach
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. The timing of a visit to Privett is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- Diagnosis: a survey of the duct’s route, size and access.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- Readings, pictures and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email 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 normally come back within one working day.

Privett questions
Which council inspects kitchens in Privett?
Kitchens in Privett are inspected by East Hampshire council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you cover smaller places like Privett?
Yes, Privett is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
Signs include grease dripping from joints, smells and a fan working harder, but the only sure way is to measure. Grease thickness testing shows exactly where the duct stands.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
When is the ductwork cleaned?
The duct is cleaned out of hours, evenings, overnight or at weekends. The extract and cooking equipment need to be off.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- Undersized or badly laid-out ducts
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on in Privett
- Attenuators
- Horizontal duct runs
- Bends and junctions
- Vertical risers
- Multi-storey ducts
- Access panels
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
- Leave a way through to the access panels
Access panels are closed and sealed back up after cleaning, and the area around them is cleaned down. Waste grease and water are taken away.
Keep the fan on throughout service. When the air stops, grease settles in the duct, so switching off early adds to the build-up.
