Kitchen duct cleaning in Spelsbury
Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you’re dealing with a kitchen taken over without any extract records and an inspection that picked up a dirty extract, we can put it right, from discharge points, plenums and filters and horizontal duct runs onwards. Need a TR19 duct cleaning contractor for Spelsbury? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Sections without access panels are recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted so they’re cleaned next time.
In a village or hamlet like Spelsbury, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Spelsbury kitchens: local notes
Food hygiene inspections in Spelsbury are the job of West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. The fire and rescue service for Spelsbury is Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Spelsbury, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Spelsbury is about 7 miles north of Witney, in Oxfordshire. Whether your site is in the middle of Spelsbury or further out, we cover kitchen extract cleaning for every kind of premises, from small sites to large estates. We cover 443 places across Oxfordshire, from busy centres to quieter spots. Oxford is in our area too, around 15 miles away.
Every address in OX7 is covered for kitchen extract cleaning, from busy streets to back roads. If you need kitchen extract cleaning at premises on Quickset Close and Chadlington Road or a nearby road, our technicians can take on the work. If your site is just outside Spelsbury, we cover Charlbury (2 miles south-east), Fawler (3 miles south-east), Finstock (4 miles south), Stonesfield (4 miles south-east) and Ramsden (4 miles south). Within a short drive, we also cover Oxford (15 miles south-east), Banbury (13 miles north-east), Bicester (14 miles east), Witney (7 miles south), Carterton (10 miles south-west) and Kidlington (10 miles south-east).
Local landmarks in Spelsbury
For rail, the closest station is Charlbury station, about 1.5 miles south of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Chipping Norton Museum (3.9 miles north-west). For a walk, there’s Blenheim Farm.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether several sites go on one quote
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any previous report or certificate
Want a quote for kitchen extract cleaning? Please call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with a few details about the site. We’ll explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before anything is booked.
Why deal with it now?
Leaving the clean until the next refit does not make the grease go away. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, which is slower to clean. Staying on a regular cycle keeps each clean manageable. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Spelsbury: your questions answered
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Spelsbury?
It’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Spelsbury. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Spelsbury?
That is West Oxfordshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Spelsbury. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you cover Spelsbury?
Yes. Spelsbury is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
Can you price the work without visiting?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends, so you don’t lose a service.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. Canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge are all included, reached through access panels where necessary.
Common problems we fix in Spelsbury
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. Once it cools inside the ductwork, it condenses onto every surface it touches, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Chadlington Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Spelsbury, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
Before booking anyone
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether a survey comes first
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
The process
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Spelsbury, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear the space around the work
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
