Duct Cleaning · Crediton
From the the High Street cafes to the Market Square pubs and the care homes, Crediton runs on ductwork you never see - grease extract, dry ventilation and laundry runs where the dirt, and the fire risk, sit concealed above the ceiling.
Answer a few quick questions about your Crediton canopy, filters and ducting for a guide price on stripping and degreasing the extract system - no measuring, no site visit.
Try the cost calculatorMost of Crediton's ductwork is out of sight. The kitchens of its pubs, cafes, restaurants and care homes drive grease up through the extract; the offices, the Lords Meadow Industrial Estate units and the Fordton estate workshops turn over dry supply and extract air; and its hotels and laundries run lint-packed dryer ducting.
Behind a great share of those kitchens sits an extract system a canopy wipe never touches. Crediton falls under Mid Devon District Council, whose remit takes in 1,050 rated premises across the county - and grease ductwork is a fire matter as much as a hygiene one. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 the responsible person has to keep it clean to a standard a certificate can show.
We clean and certify the whole system - grease, dry and laundry - right across Crediton: the High Street and the Market Square, the Holy Cross church and Boniface's town, and the Lords Meadow and Fordton estates. We survey the full route, fit compliant access where a sealed run has none, and clean every internal metre back to bare metal.
Insurers and fire risk assessors work to TR19 Grease because it measures the whole extract system rather than the visible canopy. It grades grease by depth and fixes the point at which a run has to be cleaned again - so the interval is a measurement, not a guess.
Across Crediton we work to that one standard, whether the run climbs out of a busy restaurant kitchen or a care-home laundry.
The greasy extract from a cookline is the run that carries real fire risk. We clean it canopy to fan, down to bare metal, and log grease-depth readings at set points.
Dry ventilation ductwork chokes on dust and debris, so it works harder and moves less air. We clean and inspect it so airflow and air quality come back.
Lint-packed dryer and laundry ducting is among the most flammable build-ups on any site. We clear it and check it, before it becomes the ignition source.
Typical jobs we handle, by sector and area - representative of the work we do, not named clients.
At a unit on the Lords Meadow Industrial Estate in Crediton, the run turned through the ceiling void to a rooftop fan, greased along every length. We opened the boxed sections and cleaned the full length to clean metal, with the grease-depth log and a dated certificate.
At a restaurant in Crediton, the system came in on its planned interval, kept in good order. We stripped and cleaned the canopy and baffles and cleared the internal run to clean metal, leaving the responsible person a certificate and the readings.
We trace the whole run, locate the sealed and concealed sections and set the scope and a cleaning interval to your cooking hours.
Compliant inspection hatches go in wherever the ductwork is boxed in, and the kitchen or plant area is sheeted and protected.
The full run is cleaned to bare metal from canopy to fan, with grease-depth readings taken at set points as we work.
You receive a dated certificate, the readings, photographs and a next-due date for the fire logbook.
The building. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on the responsible person to control fire risk, and concealed grease is where a kitchen fire spreads fastest and least visibly.
The claim. Insurers expect a current certificate; a fire claim on a neglected system can be cut or refused - a costly surprise after a loss.
The day-to-day. A clean run pulls better, smells better and stands up when the environmental health officer visits.
Crediton runs its long High Street below the great sandstone church of the Holy Cross, birthplace of Saint Boniface, a market town whose cafes and pubs and the Lords Meadow and Fordton estates keep it fed and working. The kitchens that feed the town cook hard, and the grease their extract carries banks unseen in the concealed run. We work around service so a Crediton kitchen is cleaned, certified and back in action without losing covers.
Yes. We work throughout Crediton and the wider Devon, including the High Street and the Market Square, the Holy Cross church and Boniface's town, and the Lords Meadow and Fordton estates. Call 07961 915018 or use the contact form and we will confirm and quote.
The whole run - from the canopy through the concealed horizontal and vertical ductwork to the roof fan. The hidden sections are exactly where the grease and the fire risk sit.
We fit compliant access panels where the run is sealed or boxed in, so every internal section can be reached, cleaned, inspected and certified.
It depends on use. TR19 Grease sets kitchen extract frequency by daily cooking hours - roughly every three months for heavy use, six for moderate and twelve for light - and we set your interval and next-due date on the survey.
Yes. Dry supply and extract ductwork clogs with dust and can spread contamination, and laundry and dryer ducting packs with highly flammable lint. We clean and certify all three.
Yes. We work overnight, early mornings, weekends and closing days to keep your kitchen or site running.
We have cleaned and certified commercial ductwork since 2001, the length of the Devon coast and across the UK. Whatever the run - a grease riser, a dry office system or a care-home laundry duct - the work ends the same way: bare metal, a photo record and a certificate that stands up to a fire risk assessment.
Send us your site details and cooking hours and we will survey, quote and certify - across Devon.
