How we handle ductwork cleaning in Sibford Ferris
No two duct runs are the same, in Sibford Ferris or anywhere else. A few metres to an outside wall, or a riser up through the building to a roof fan. We map the route during the survey, so we know where to get in and how long it will take. If you are dealing with grease leaking from duct joints and thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct, we can put it right, from bends and junctions, multi-storey ducts and attenuators onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What the work involves, part by part
Vertical risers
A riser takes the duct up through one or more floors. Grease runs down the walls and gathers at the base, which is one of the points we test.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Ducts in taller or shared buildings often run past other occupiers. We plan access with you and the building manager, so the clean is done safely and quietly.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Sibford Ferris questions
Which environmental health team covers Sibford Ferris?
In Sibford Ferris, it’s Cherwell 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 Sibford Ferris?
Fire safety enforcement in Sibford Ferris is handled by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
What accreditations do you have?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
What shows that the ducts need a clean?
The date on the last certificate is the first thing to check. No record, or a passed date, means it’s due, and grease readings will confirm how urgent it is.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do I get a certificate for ductwork cleaning?
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.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
What ductwork cleaning looks like in Sibford Ferris
Food hygiene inspections in Sibford Ferris are the job of Cherwell council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Sibford Ferris. 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.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Sibford School or anywhere near Sibford Ferris, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Sibford Ferris, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Broughton Castle is about 3.8 miles east), access may need planning.

Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Don’t block access panels with shelving or stock
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
- Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps
A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It shows when and where the clean was done and by whom.
Watch for warning signs between cleans: drips from the ductwork, stale smells or a noisy fan. A grease thickness test can confirm whether a spot clean is needed.

How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Somewhere like Sibford Ferris, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and photos repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.
Advice
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
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.
Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Sibford Ferris
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
- What state the system is in
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
