Ductwork cleaning in Stubbington
Nobody sees duct grease building, so nobody notices it until something goes wrong. Flames pulled in from the cooking line can ignite it, and fire can then run along the ductwork to other parts of the building. Removing it is the whole point. If you have an insurer asking for TR19 evidence and sections of duct with no access panels, we can help.
Around a smaller place like Stubbington, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
What affects the quote in Stubbington
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
- The scale of the work
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
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 photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

What a clean will not put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
- An extract fan that has stopped working
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Do you need ductwork cleaning in Stubbington?
Grease in a duct running from a kitchen in Stubbington is as much a fire risk as in any building. Once it lights, fire can spread along the duct and into other areas, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A grease test showing the duct is overdue
- Duct runs that can’t be reached
- Years of grease along the duct floor
- Proof of duct cleaning for the insurer
A hospital like Gosport War Memorial Hospital, about 3.7 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Ductwork cleaning around Stubbington
The coast is only about 1 mile from Stubbington. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. Food Standards Agency data counts about 17 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 9 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Stubbington. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Stubbington sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Crofton Anne Dale Junior School or anywhere near Stubbington, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Holy Rood Church, or anywhere in Stubbington, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Questions from Stubbington
Which fire authority looks after Stubbington?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Stubbington. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can sea air affect ductwork cleaning in Stubbington?
It can. Stubbington is within about 1 mile of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.
How long will the duct clean take?
Allow from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. We will confirm the time when we quote.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How do you clean inside the ductwork?
After a survey and grease readings, the duct is opened up through its access panels. Each run and riser is scraped and degreased, then the readings are repeated.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. In a place like Stubbington, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and pictures repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Move anything stored near the system

Related advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
How the job changes from site to site
Access panels
Access panels are the doors that let us into the duct. Where there are none, those sections can’t be cleaned and the report has to say so.
Attenuators and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, quieten the extract, and their linings can soak up grease. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.
