Ductwork cleaning in Rushmoor, Surrey
We cover Rushmoor for ductwork cleaning. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- A duct nobody has opened in years
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Rushmoor and across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
How we handle ductwork cleaning in Rushmoor
In doctor’s terms, the ductwork is the system’s arteries: find the blockages, clear them, then check the flow is right. Readings taken before and after show the difference, alongside before and after photos. If you have a grease test showing the duct is overdue and ductwork that has never been cleaned, we can help, from attenuators, vertical risers and multi-storey ducts onwards.
Work in a small place like Rushmoor starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Grease settles fastest where the air slows down. Flat runs, bends, reducers and the base of risers are the usual hotspots, and those are the points we pay most attention to.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
- Stale grease odours from the duct
Farnham Castle, about 4.8 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses near Rushmoor; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Rushmoor questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Rushmoor?
It’s Surrey Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Rushmoor. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you work in Rushmoor outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Rushmoor does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How often does extract ductwork need cleaning?
It depends mostly on daily cooking hours. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means at least every 3 months, while lighter use can go longer.
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. It includes readings, photos and any unreachable sections.
How do you know if the ductwork needs cleaning?
A grease thickness test gives the answer. Readings are taken by Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). A mean above 200 microns, or 500 microns at any point, means it’s due.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Do you work in Rushmoor?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Rushmoor included.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Check readings when the menu changes
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections can’t be reached
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Leave a way through to the access panels
The report names every part of the duct that couldn’t be reached and why. We can fit access panels so those sections are cleaned next time.
Have access panels fitted where sections can’t be reached. It doesn’t stop grease forming, but it stops it building unseen.
What affects the quote in Rushmoor
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The scale of the work
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
When something else is needed
Ductwork cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It won’t put right:
- Ductwork that was poorly designed
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.
Where we work
- Access panels
- Attenuators
- Vertical risers

What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access, and we clear up before we go. In a small place like Rushmoor, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Heavy deposits come out by hand, then each section is degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and pictures repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
How to prepare
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Clear the space around the work
