About our ductwork cleaning in Teynham Street
Not sure when the ductwork was last cleaned? A few details about the system are a good start when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and a fixed price will follow, typically within one working day. We are often asked to deal with a duct nobody has opened in years and thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct, on horizontal duct runs, access panels and attenuators.
In a village or hamlet like Teynham Street, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The condition of the system
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Why deal with it now?
Grease left in a duct in Teynham Street hardens over time. Heat and age turn it into a thick, stubborn crust, so the later the clean, the bigger the job. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Teynham Street is calmer for everyone.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What you get with us
- A fixed price before any work starts
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
- A written report with photos after every visit

When to call us in Teynham Street
A greasy duct is a fire path, in Teynham Street as anywhere. Once it lights, fire can spread along the duct and into other areas, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
- Grease seeping out of the duct seams
- Hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs
- A grease test showing the duct is overdue
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Teynham Street (Belmont House and Gardens is about 4.8 miles south), fitting access panels needs care.
Questions to ask before you book
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- What insurance they carry
- When the next visit should be, and why
Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep access panels clear of stored items
- Keep to the interval on the report
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Consider fitting panels where the report shows gaps
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.
Have access panels fitted where sections cannot be reached. It doesn’t stop grease forming, but it stops it building unseen.

Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Teynham Street
Is ductwork cleaning any different in a coastal place like Teynham Street?
It can, as Teynham Street is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Which environmental health team covers Teynham Street?
In Teynham Street, it’s Swale council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Is Teynham Street in your area?
Yes. We cover Teynham Street and the rest of Kent, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
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 work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
What if part of the duct cannot be reached?
We clean everything we can reach and record what we cannot. Fitting extra access panels is the usual answer, and we can do that for you.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Sections that cannot be reached safely without new access (those are recorded, and panels can be fitted)
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- An extract fan that has stopped working
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What the work covers
- Access panels
- Vertical risers
- Attenuators
- Horizontal duct runs
- Bends and junctions
- Multi-storey ducts
Ductwork cleaning around Teynham Street
Sea air reaches Teynham Street, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Teynham Street. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. The fire and rescue service for Teynham Street is Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run a café or takeaway near Teynham station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. Somewhere like Teynham Street, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First the duct route is traced and every access point noted.
- Grease readings are taken at set points along the duct.
- We open the panels and scrape out the heaviest grease.
- Horizontal runs and risers are then degreased by the method that suits the deposit.
- We test again, take photos and note any part that couldn’t be reached.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
