About our ductwork cleaning in Shepperton Green
Once air leaves the canopy, it travels through ductwork that most people never see. Grease settles along every metre of it and a fire in the duct can spread through the building. We clean it from the inside, through access panels, to BESA TR19® Grease. Common call-outs are for ductwork that has never been cleaned and smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork, across bends and junctions, attenuators and multi-storey ducts.
Kitchens around a place like Shepperton Green are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for Shepperton Green
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Shepperton Green?
Surrey Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Shepperton Green. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can school kitchens in Shepperton Green be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 8 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Shepperton Green, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll fit the work in.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
Do we have to stop cooking while the ducts are cleaned?
The duct is cleaned out of hours, so evenings, nights and weekends are all possible. The extract and cooking equipment need to be off.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
How is kitchen extract ductwork cleaned?
Through access panels along the duct. Heavy grease is scraped out by hand, then the surfaces are degreased with a method that suits the deposit, such as degreasers, hot water or steam.
Grease, kitchens and Shepperton Green
The FSA’s data shows about 12 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered in Shepperton Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. In Shepperton Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Spelthorne council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Shepperton Green is covered by Surrey 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.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary Magdalene or elsewhere in Shepperton Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. School kitchens, at schools like Saxon Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What ductwork cleaning can’t fix

- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- 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 send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

When to call us in Shepperton Green
A duct with too few access doors cannot be fully cleaned. Sections between panels go uncleaned, sometimes since the system was installed, and grease there keeps thickening unseen.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Stale grease odours from the duct
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
- Duct runs that can’t be reached
- Thick crusts of old grease along the duct
If you cook for passing trade around Shepperton station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
What the work involves, part by part
Attenuators and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to reduce noise, and their linings can soak up grease. They’re cleaned where possible and recorded if not.
Horizontal duct runs
Long horizontal runs need access panels at regular intervals. Any stretch out of reach is noted and can fit extra panels.

What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Travel, parking and unloading
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
How it works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. Everything the job in Shepperton Green needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- We start by working out how the duct runs and where it can be opened.
- We measure grease thickness at set points before cleaning.
- Through the access panels, thick grease is removed by hand first.
- Horizontal runs and risers are then degreased by the method that suits the deposit.
- Readings and pictures are repeated and any section we couldn’t reach is recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
