Duct cleaning in Willey Green
Ductwork cleaning across Willey Green and nearby, timed so the site keeps working and finished with a written report and photos.
- Ductwork that has never been cleaned
- High readings at a recent grease test
- An insurer asking for TR19 evidence
Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
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 to a regular schedule.
Ductwork cleaning in Willey Green
Every duct has its own route. A few metres to an outside wall, or a riser up through the building to a roof fan. We map the route during the survey, so we know where to get in and how long it will take. Common call-outs are for an insurer asking for TR19 evidence and high readings at a recent grease test, across attenuators, bends and junctions and horizontal duct runs.
For a kitchen in or near Willey Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What the work involves, part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Grease settles on the floor of a flat duct run. Thick deposits are scraped out by hand before degreasing, then the walls and roof are cleaned too.
Access panels
We can fit new access panels where the duct needs them, making future cleans more complete. The survey shows where they’re needed.
What affects the cost of ductwork cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- What state the system is in
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

What ductwork cleaning looks like in Willey Green
Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Willey Green. 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. Food hygiene inspections in Willey Green are the job of Guildford council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
School kitchens, at schools like Kings College Guildford for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mark or elsewhere in Willey Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Leave it or put it right?
A dirty duct is something insurers ask about. Many require cleaning to TR19, and they can refuse or reduce a claim without proof. Your certificate and photo report show the ducts were cleaned. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Willey Green rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

- A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)

What we’re called out for in Willey Green
Grease in a duct running from a kitchen in Willey Green is as much a fire risk as in any building. Once it lights, fire can spread along the duct and into other areas, which is why the responsible person needs it under control.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- A grease test showing the duct is overdue
- Duct runs with no cleaning record
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Willey Green is Guildford Hospital, about 2.2 miles south-east.
