FAQs for Weyhill
Who is the fire and rescue service for Weyhill?
Fire safety enforcement in Weyhill is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Which council inspects kitchens in Weyhill?
The local authority for Weyhill is Test Valley council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How long does ductwork cleaning take?
A short duct can be cleaned in a few hours, but long or complex ducts may take several visits. Visits are planned out of hours.
What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?
Readings, photos and, for a full clean, a TR19 certificate. It also gives a recommended next clean date.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What’s the cleaning interval for extract ductwork?
It follows the same interval as the whole extract, ranging from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Grease thickness testing shows whether that is often enough.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
Ductwork cleaning in Weyhill
Many ducts were installed with too few access doors. TR19 calls for any section we couldn’t reach to be recorded, and new panels can be fitted to reach it in future. An honest report beats a guess. The work covers attenuators, access panels and bends and junctions, and common reasons people get in touch are smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork and readings above 200 microns from a grease thickness test.
Work in a small place like Weyhill starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What else we do in Weyhill
Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
- Have the grease measured if cooking hours go up
After the clean, the same points are tested again, giving you before and after readings. Photos of each section go alongside them.
Grease that never reaches the duct never needs cleaning out of it. Clean, properly seated filters are the duct’s best protection.
What the work involves, part by part
Access panels
Access panels are the doors that let us into the duct. Without them, parts of the duct can’t be reached, and TR19 expects them to be recorded.
Vertical risers
Risers are cleaned through panels at different levels. Where it cannot be reached safely, the report says so.
The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. Visits to a village like Weyhill are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We trace the duct and find every way in.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
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 send you a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Advice
Do you need ductwork cleaning in Weyhill?
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease collects on the riser walls and gathers at the bottom as liquid grease runs down. Access along its height is needed to clean it properly.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Grease leaking from duct joints
- Duct runs that can’t be reached
- Proof of duct cleaning for the insurer
- Ductwork that has never been cleaned
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Andover War Memorial Hospital about 2.8 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Weyhill
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- What state the system is in
- How many systems or sites are involved
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Why it’s worth doing now in Weyhill
A partly blocked duct slows the airflow. The fan works harder, the kitchen gets hotter and smoke lingers at the canopy and grease can drip from duct joints. Somewhere as small as Weyhill, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll talk you through it.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Ductwork cleaning in Weyhill: the local picture
There are about 6 restaurants, cafés and canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Weyhill, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each kitchen that cooks under a canopy sends grease-laden air into a duct, where it cools and settles. Weyhill is covered by 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. It’s Test Valley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Weyhill. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Michael and All Angels, or anywhere in Weyhill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
