Ductwork Cleaning in Ramsdean
Need ductwork cleaning in Ramsdean? We diagnose first, fix the price and book the work around your hours, then sign off with a report and pictures.
- Duct runs with no cleaning record
- Stale grease odours from the duct
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Tell us if grease leaks from the ductwork
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Diarise the next duct clean
- Get panels fitted where the duct couldn’t be cleaned
After the clean, the same points are tested again, so the report shows the before and after figures. Photos of each section go alongside them.
Some signs mean the duct needs attention sooner: drips from the ductwork, stale smells or a noisy fan. A grease thickness test can confirm whether a spot clean is needed.
Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Ramsdean
Many ducts were installed with too few access doors. Where a section cannot be reached, TR19 expects it to be recorded on the report, and we can fit new access panels so it’s cleaned next time. It’s better to know than to assume. Common call-outs are for hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs and a duct nobody has opened in years, across vertical risers, bends and junctions and attenuators.
For a kitchen in or near Ramsdean, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, 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.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ramsdean
TR19® isn’t law, but the duty to manage fire risk is. The Fire Safety Order 2005 makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the duct is part of that. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Ramsdean: your questions answered
Which fire authority looks after Ramsdean?
Fire safety enforcement in Ramsdean is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you cover smaller places like Ramsdean?
Yes, Ramsdean is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What should I send you?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Do we have to stop cooking while the ducts are cleaned?
We plan the clean when you are not cooking. Most kitchens book overnight or weekend cleans, so no service is lost.
How do you clean inside the ductwork?
We survey the route, test the grease, then open the access panels. We clean the runs and risers section by section, and test again when we’re done.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
What happens on the day
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 the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. For a village or hamlet like Ramsdean, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- We open the panels and scrape out the heaviest grease.
- The duct is degreased with the method that suits the grease, from degreasers to hot water or steam.
- Post-clean readings and pictures go into the report, with any unreachable section listed.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Related advice
Common problems we fix in Ramsdean
Ducts in Ramsdean gather grease for the same reasons as ducts anywhere: daily cooking hours, the menu and the state of the filters. BESA guidance sets minimum intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months depending on daily use.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Thick crusts of old grease along the duct
- Stale grease odours from the duct
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
- High readings at a recent grease test
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Petersfield Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Ramsdean, about 2.2 miles east.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Faulty fire dampers
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
- Parts of the duct with no way in
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Multi-storey ducts
- Horizontal duct runs
- Bends and junctions
- Access panels
- Vertical risers
- Attenuators
How we price ductwork cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- A few general shots of the system
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Grease, kitchens and Ramsdean
It’s East Hampshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Ramsdean. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Fire safety in Ramsdean falls to 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.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St John the Evangelist, or anywhere in Ramsdean, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. School kitchens, at schools like Langrish Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Different parts, different methods
Access panels
Every section of duct is cleaned through an access panel. Without them, parts of the duct can’t be reached and the report has to say so.
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.
