Need ductwork cleaning in Sutton Abinger?

Looking after it afterwards

Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
  • Report any grease dripping from duct joints
  • Run the extract fan throughout service
  • Leave a way through to the access panels

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.

Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.

Ductwork cleaning in Sutton Abinger

We have been trading since 2009, working across London and the South East. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and our certificates are issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you’re dealing with a rancid smell from the extract duct and duct runs with no cleaning record, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Sutton Abinger, 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, whatever the size of the place.

A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

Multi-site and managed buildings

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

FAQs for Sutton Abinger

Do you work overnight in Sutton Abinger?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Sutton Abinger keeps running as normal. When you call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Sutton Abinger?

Food hygiene inspections in Sutton Abinger are carried out by Guildford council. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Are you insured?

Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.

What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?

A photo report, with readings and before and after pictures, plus a TR19 certificate for a full system clean. The report says when the next clean is due.

How do you clean inside the ductwork?

Through access panels along the duct. Thick deposits are removed by hand before degreasing, such as degreasers, hot water or steam.

Do you cover Sutton Abinger?

Yes. We work in Sutton Abinger and the rest of Surrey, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

What do you do to protect the area?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

Who is the responsible person?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.

Leave it or put it right?

Insurers know the risk of a greasy duct. Many policies require TR19 cleaning, and a claim may be refused or reduced without evidence. A certificate that covers the ductwork is what they want to see. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

Part by part

Horizontal duct runs

Horizontal runs carry the extract along ceilings and through voids. They collect grease as the air cools and slows, and we clean them section by section through access panels.

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.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

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 grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

What happens on the day

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a few hours for a short run, longer for long runs and tall risers. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Sutton Abinger knowing what to expect.

  1. Diagnosis: a survey of the duct’s route, size and access.
  2. You get a fixed price before work starts.
  3. We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
  4. Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
  5. The duct is signed off with readings, photos and a next clean date.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Getting a quote

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
