What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
About our ductwork cleaning in Wooburn Green
Duct cleaning is the hardest part of an extract clean, and the part most often skipped. Without enough access panels, long stretches can go years without being touched. Each section we can reach is cleaned, and any we can’t is written down, so you know exactly where you stand. If you are dealing with gaps where access panels were never fitted and a duct nobody has opened in years, we can put it right.
In a smaller place like Wooburn Green, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

The process
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. Your opening hours decide when we come to Wooburn Green, not ours.
- The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and photos repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Ask us about extra access panels where sections cannot be reached
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
After the clean, the same points are tested again, giving you before and after readings. Before and after pictures sit next to the numbers.
Some signs mean the duct needs attention sooner: drips from the ductwork, stale smells or a noisy fan. Testing will show whether any section has reached 500 microns.
When to call us in Wooburn Green
Grease filters that do not seal let fat straight through. The duct then takes grease that the filters should have stopped and it fills faster.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- High readings at a recent grease test
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
- Smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Mary's Pastoral Centre or elsewhere in Wooburn Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What ductwork cleaning can’t fix
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Parts of the duct with no way in
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or holed (that needs a ductwork contractor)
- A worn-out fan that needs replacing
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Wooburn Green questions
Do you work overnight in Wooburn Green?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Wooburn Green needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Wooburn Green?
That is Buckinghamshire 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.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
How do you clean inside the ductwork?
We get into the duct through its access panels. Thick deposits are removed by hand before degreasing, such as degreasers, hot water or steam.
What’s the cleaning interval for extract ductwork?
It follows the same interval as the whole extract, from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use. Readings tell you if it needs to be more often.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.
How do you know if the ductwork needs cleaning?
Start with the date of the last clean. No record, or a passed date, means it’s due, and grease readings will confirm how urgent it is.
