How we handle ductwork cleaning in Wallcrouch
Many ducts were installed with too few access doors. 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. It’s better to know than to assume. If you’re dealing with a duct nobody has opened in years and an insurer asking for TR19 evidence, we can help, from access panels, multi-storey ducts and vertical risers onwards.
Somewhere as small as Wallcrouch, 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.
Good records are part of the job. 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 ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Wallcrouch kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens across Wallcrouch and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever those kitchens cook under a canopy, the horizontal runs and risers need cleaning as well as the hood. Wallcrouch is covered by East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Food hygiene inspections in Wallcrouch are the job of Rother council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Stonegate Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Wallcrouch, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Ticehurst House Hospital about 1 mile east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Wadhurst Castle is about 2.2 miles north-west), access may need planning.
Wallcrouch is about 8 miles south-east of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in East Sussex. We provide ductwork cleaning for commercial premises of every kind in Wallcrouch and the rest of East Sussex.

What happens if it’s left?
Under BESA guidance, the mean grease level should stay at or below 200 microns between cleans. A reading of 500 microns or more at any point means a spot clean right away. Putting off the clean only pushes readings higher. If the system at a site near Wallcrouch fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

Part by part
Access panels
Every section of duct is cleaned through an access panel. Where there are none, those sections cannot be cleaned, and TR19 expects them to be recorded.
Vertical risers
Risers often pass through floors and walls, where fire dampers may be fitted. We test those as a separate job.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Duct sections that need replacing
- Duct sealed behind fixed ceilings or walls
- Faulty fire dampers
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Where we work
- Bends and junctions
- Horizontal duct runs
- Access panels
- Multi-storey ducts
- Vertical risers
- Attenuators
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections can’t be reached
- Have the grease measured if cooking hours go up
- Keep access panels clear of stored items
- Keep to the interval on the report
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.
Grease that never reaches the duct never needs cleaning out of it. Clean, properly seated filters are the duct’s best protection.
Questions from Wallcrouch
Will you come out to Wallcrouch?
Yes. Wallcrouch is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Wallcrouch?
That is East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
How it works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to several visits, depending on the length of duct. Somewhere like Wallcrouch, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- Readings, pictures and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
