Duct Cleaning · Newbury
Newbury's kitchens - the Northbrook Street restaurants, the Market Place cafes and the racecourse catering - run grease up concealed ductwork to the roof. We clean and certify the whole system to TR19 Grease.
Answer a few quick questions about your Newbury canopy, filters and ducting for a guide price on stripping and degreasing the extract system - no measuring, no site visit.
Try the cost calculatorNewbury is a Berkshire market and racing town on the Kennet, its trade running from Northbrook Street down to the canal wharf. The restaurants and cafes of Northbrook Street and the Market Place, the bars around Bartholomew Street and the catering at Newbury Racecourse all vent through extract ductwork that lifts hot, grease-laden air from the canopy to a hidden roof outlet.
Across a West Berkshire food economy of 1,274 rated premises, the risk lives in the concealed length of that duct - the run above a suspended ceiling, the riser boxed into an older building - unseen until an insurer or fire risk assessor calls for evidence. We clean and certify commercial grease, ventilation and laundry ductwork across Newbury to TR19 Grease, opening access panels where a run is sealed and leaving the certificate and photographs for your file.
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 Newbury we work to that one standard, whether the run climbs out of a busy restaurant kitchen or a care-home laundry.
The extract off a cookline lines itself with combustible grease the whole way to the fan, and it is the concealed length, not the canopy, a fire assessment turns on. We clean it end to end and record the readings.
Dry supply and extract ductwork silts up with dust and debris until it moves far less air than it should. We clean and inspect it so the ventilation actually performs.
Lint packs a laundry or dryer duct faster than anyone expects, and few build-ups catch as readily. We clear and check the run before it turns into an ignition source.
Real jobs, described by sector and area - never by a client's name.
The catering at Newbury Racecourse feeds big crowds on a raceday and its kitchens vent through long concealed ducts. We surveyed the runs, fitted access panels and cleaned them end to end between fixtures, documenting the work for the course.
A Northbrook Street restaurant had a horizontal duct hidden above the ceiling to a roof fan, never documented. We cleaned the accessible length, fitted panels where it was boxed in, and set the interval to its hours.
We inspect the full run, find the access gaps in the concealed sections and agree scope and a cleaning frequency for your usage.
We fit compliant inspection hatches where the ductwork is sealed, and protect the kitchen or plant area.
Canopy to fan, down to bare metal, with before-and-after evidence at set measuring points.
You get a dated certificate, grease-depth record, photographs and your next-due date.
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.
Racedays turn Newbury's kitchens over faster than any other day of the year, the course and the town centre feeding crowds from the first race to the last. A duct packed over a busy season is a fire risk waiting on a spark, so we clean and certify the whole system before and after the racing calendar's busiest fixtures.
Yes. We work throughout Newbury and the wider Berkshire, including Northbrook Street and the Market Place, Bartholomew Street and the canal wharf, the racecourse, and the Faraday Road and Hambridge Road units. 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 Berkshire 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 Berkshire.
