- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.

Advice
Ductwork cleaning in Yaverland
The ductwork is where an extract clean is won or lost. Without enough access panels, long stretches can go years without being touched. Each section we can reach is cleaned, and any we cannot is written down, so you know exactly where you stand. If you are dealing with grease leaking from duct joints and thick crusts of old grease along the duct, we can put it right.
In a small place like Yaverland, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Yaverland questions
Can sea air affect ductwork cleaning in Yaverland?
Yes, to a degree: at about 1 mile from the coast, Yaverland gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Can you come to Yaverland after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Yaverland does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How do you clean inside the ductwork?
After a survey and grease readings, the duct is opened up through its access panels. We clean the runs and risers section by section, and test again when we are done.
How much does ductwork cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
What paperwork do you give after a duct clean?
A full system clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. It includes readings, pictures and any unreachable sections.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Can you clean ductwork with no access panels?
Without a way in, a section cannot be cleaned properly. Those parts are listed, and we can install panels so they’re reached next time.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Why deal with it now?
A dirty duct is something insurers ask about. Many policies require TR19 cleaning, and a claim may be refused or reduced without evidence. A certificate that covers the ductwork is what they want to see. A planned visit to Yaverland is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Kitchen extracts in Yaverland
The coast is only about 1 mile from Yaverland. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 32 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 9 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Yaverland. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Environmental health officers from Isle of Wight council inspect food businesses in Yaverland. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St John the Baptist Church or elsewhere in Yaverland, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. A hospital like Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children, about 2.8 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Signs you need ductwork cleaning in Yaverland
Grease in a duct running from a kitchen in Yaverland 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.
Clients normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
- Duct runs that cannot be reached
- Duct runs with no cleaning record
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Yaverland Manor is about 0.5 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Different parts, different methods
Vertical risers
Risers are cleaned through panels at different levels. Any part that can’t be safely reached is recorded.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
A duct that climbs several floors may be cleaned over more than one visit. Visits are planned around the building’s hours, out of hours where possible.
What else we do in Yaverland
What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
