Your questions about ductwork cleaning in Wildmoor
Which council inspects kitchens in Wildmoor?
That is Basingstoke and Deane council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Wildmoor. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Which fire service covers Wildmoor?
Fire safety enforcement in Wildmoor is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost in Wildmoor?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote and we will usually reply within one working day.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes normally come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Can you clean ductwork with no access panels?
Ductwork needs access to be cleaned. We record those sections on the report and can fit access panels.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
About our ductwork cleaning in Wildmoor
The ductwork is where an extract clean is won or lost. Without enough access panels, long stretches can go years without being touched. We open up every reachable section and record any we cannot reach, so you know exactly where you stand. If you have a grease test showing the duct is overdue and grease seeping out of the duct seams, we can help.
For a kitchen in or near Wildmoor, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Wildmoor kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Wildmoor and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Wildmoor is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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. In Wildmoor, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
The Vyne, about 3 miles west, is one of the historic houses near Wildmoor; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. For schools such as The Loddon School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What else we do in Wildmoor
What a clean won’t put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ductwork cleaning won’t do:
- A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)
- A damper stuck open in the duct
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on in Wildmoor
- Access panels
- Multi-storey ducts
- Horizontal duct runs
- Attenuators
- Bends and junctions
- Vertical risers
Looking after it afterwards
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep to the interval on the report
- Tell us if grease leaks from the ductwork
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Run the extract fan throughout service
File the paperwork in the maintenance log. An insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask to see it, and the pictures make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Extra access panels mean more of the duct gets cleaned each time. Grease you can reach is grease that gets removed.
When to call us in Wildmoor
Risers carry the extract up through the building. Grease clings to the walls and can run down to the base, where it can pool. Access along its height is needed to clean it properly.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Sections of duct with no access panels
- Thick crusts of old grease along the duct
- Proof of duct cleaning for the insurer
- Stale grease odours from the duct
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St. Leonard, or anywhere in Wildmoor, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Why deal with it now?
There’s no law that names TR19. The Fire Safety Order 2005 makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, including the grease inside the extract ductwork. With notice, the visit to Wildmoor can be fitted around your bookings and events.
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Wildmoor
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
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 grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
