Ductwork cleaning in Pusey, done properly
We treat ductwork like a doctor treats arteries: diagnose where grease has built up, clear it and confirm the result. Grease readings before and after give you the evidence, alongside before and after pictures. Common call-outs are for sections of duct with no access panels and readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test, on multi-storey ducts, horizontal duct runs and vertical risers.
In a village or hamlet like Pusey, 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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
What a clean won’t put right
Not every problem is solved by ductwork cleaning, and we will tell you before we start. It does not solve:
- A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)
- A failed fan motor at the end of the duct (a fan repair job)
- Faulty fire dampers
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on in Pusey
- Multi-storey ducts
- Access panels
- Attenuators
- Horizontal duct runs
- Vertical risers
- Bends and junctions
Why deal with it now?
Grease narrows the duct and slows the air. Less air moves, so heat and smoke stay in the kitchen while the fan strains, and grease may start to leak from joints. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

Pusey questions
Which council inspects kitchens in Pusey?
In Pusey, it’s Vale of White Horse council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Pusey?
That is Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
What’s involved in cleaning extract ducts?
After a survey and grease readings, the duct is opened up through its access panels. Each run and riser is scraped and degreased, and test again when we are done.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Will the duct clean disrupt the kitchen?
We clean while the kitchen is closed, so evenings, nights and weekends are all possible. Equipment and the extract are switched off while we work.
Different parts, different methods
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of a flat duct run. We scrape out the heavy layer first, then the walls and roof are cleaned too.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
A duct that climbs several floors may be cleaned over more than one visit. Visits are planned around the building’s hours, out of hours where possible.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Oxfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Pusey kitchens: local notes
Pusey sits within the area of Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Food hygiene inspections in Pusey are the job of Vale of White Horse council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Longworth House is about 2.4 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Buckland Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Pusey, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Pusey is about 6 miles north-west of Wantage, in Oxfordshire. For ductwork cleaning in and around Pusey, please call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for a fixed quote.

Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Book the next clean before the recommended date
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections can’t be reached
- Leave a way through to the access panels
Keep the certificate and report with the fire risk assessment. It’s the evidence an insurer or inspector may ask for, and the photos make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Have access panels fitted where sections can’t be reached. It doesn’t stop grease forming, but it stops it building unseen.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Somewhere as small as Pusey, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- Each section is cleaned in turn through its access 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
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Move anything stored near the system
