What we do, step by step
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. The visit takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. For a village or hamlet like Stoke Lyne, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
Ductwork cleaning in Stoke Lyne, done properly
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 pictures. The work covers multi-storey ducts, access panels and bends and junctions, and the jobs we see most are years of grease along the duct floor and duct runs that can’t be reached.
For a kitchen in or near Stoke Lyne, 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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, 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.

Stoke Lyne questions
Can the work in Stoke Lyne be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Stoke Lyne does not have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you work in villages like Stoke Lyne?
Yes, Stoke Lyne is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Can extra access doors be added to the duct?
Yes, as part of our fits and repairs work. We place them where they help most, and we will recommend where.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- File each certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Have the grease measured if cooking hours go up
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Don’t block access panels with shelving or stock
When the duct is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. It records the date, the location and the technician.
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.
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Duct sections that need replacing
- A damper stuck open in the duct
- A failed fan motor at the end of the duct (a fan repair job)
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What affects the quote in Stoke Lyne
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The scale of the work
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The times the site is available
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
