Stonesfield questions
Which environmental health team covers Stonesfield?
Food hygiene inspections in Stonesfield are carried out by West Oxfordshire council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Stonesfield?
Fire safety enforcement in Stonesfield is handled by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you fit access panels in our ductwork?
Yes, extra panels can be fitted. It means more of the duct can be cleaned next time, and the report will show where they’re needed.
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 work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?
A photo report, with readings and before and after photos, plus a TR19 certificate for a full system clean. The report says when the next clean is due.
About our ductwork cleaning in Stonesfield
Not every duct has enough access panels. TR19 calls for any section we couldn’t reach to be recorded, and we can fit new access panels so it’s cleaned next time. An honest report beats a guess. The work covers multi-storey ducts, access panels and vertical risers, and common reasons people get in touch are duct runs that can’t be reached and grease seeping out of the duct seams.
Somewhere as small as Stonesfield, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Part by part
Access panels
We can fit new access panels where the duct needs them, so the next clean reaches more of the system. The survey shows where they’re needed.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
Long ducts in larger buildings can mean several visits. Visits are planned around the building’s hours, out of hours where possible.
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. For a village or hamlet like Stonesfield, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We map the duct route and check where the access panels are.
- Set points along the runs are tested for grease.
- Access panels are opened and heavy deposits scraped out by hand.
- The duct is degreased with the method that suits the grease, from degreasers to hot water or steam.
- We test again, take photos and note any part that couldn’t be reached.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

What affects the quote in Stonesfield
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- The condition of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Stonesfield
A duct with too few access doors cannot be fully cleaned. Stretches with no way in may never have been touched, and the grease there keeps building out of sight.
These are the problems we see most often:
- High readings at a recent grease test
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
- Proof of duct cleaning for the insurer
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St James the Great or elsewhere in Stonesfield, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Kitchen extracts in Stonesfield
Stonesfield is covered by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. 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. It’s West Oxfordshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Stonesfield. 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.
Historic houses near Stonesfield, such as Blenheim Palace about 3 miles east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Stonesfield School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What a clean won’t put right

- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- A worn-out fan that needs replacing
