Why it’s worth doing now in Stonor
There’s no law that names TR19. The Fire Safety Order 2005 makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the duct is part of that. A fault that closes a site in a village like Stonor affects everyone who depends on it.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

How we handle ductwork cleaning in Stonor
We treat ductwork like a doctor treats arteries: diagnose where grease has built up, clear it and confirm the result. Grease readings before and after give you the evidence, alongside before and after photos. Common call-outs are for gaps where access panels were never fitted and a duct clean needed for an insurer, across horizontal duct runs, attenuators and multi-storey ducts.
For a kitchen in or near Stonor, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep grease filters clean and fitted whenever you cook
- Check readings when the menu changes
- Store the certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
Keep the certificate and report with the fire risk assessment. It’s the evidence an insurer or inspector may ask for, and the photos make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Some signs mean the duct needs attention sooner: grease leaking from duct joints, smells, or a fan that sounds rough. A grease thickness test can confirm whether a spot clean is needed.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Oxfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- How big the system is
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- A single visit or a regular plan
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Stonor before we set off.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- We measure grease thickness at set points before cleaning.
- 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 pictures and note any part that couldn’t be reached.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A damper stuck open in the duct
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)

FAQs for Stonor
Do you work in villages like Stonor?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Stonor is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Who inspects food businesses in Stonor?
In Stonor, it’s Buckinghamshire council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
How often should kitchen ducts be cleaned?
The duct is cleaned as part of the whole system, at intervals set by BESA guidance, from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use. Grease thickness testing shows whether that’s often enough.
Do you install duct access panels?
Yes. We’ll point out where panels are needed, and fitting them means future cleans are more complete.
How the job changes from site to site
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.
Attenuators and discharge
The discharge is where the duct ends and air leaves the building. It can gather grease and mark the wall or roof around it, so it’s cleaned as far as safe access allows.
