Duct Cleaning · Sheffield
Sheffield runs grease ductwork across the city - the Ecclesall Road restaurants, the London Road kitchens and the Kelham Island food halls all pushing hot, grease-laden air up concealed runs to the roof. We clean and certify the whole system to TR19 Grease, canopy to fan.
Answer a few quick questions about your Sheffield canopy, filters and ducting for a guide price on stripping and degreasing the extract system - no measuring, no site visit.
Try the cost calculatorSheffield cooks hard across a city built on steel. The restaurants and bars of Ecclesall Road out through Broomhill and Hunters Bar, the multicultural food of London Road, the Kelham Island food halls and the Devonshire Quarter kitchens all run extract ductwork that climbs, hidden, from the canopy to the roof - and every metre of it lines with grease.
Inside a Sheffield food economy of 4,878 rated premises, the concealed run is where the fire risk sits. Grease in a boxed-in riser or a long horizontal duct is out of sight until a fire risk assessor or an insurer asks for evidence, or until a flame finds it. We clean and certify commercial grease, dry and laundry ductwork across Sheffield to TR19 Grease, fit access panels where the run is sealed, and leave the photographs and certificate your file needs.
TR19 Grease is the benchmark insurers and fire risk assessors expect for kitchen extract systems. It covers the whole system, measured, not just the parts you can see. Grease is assessed by thickness, and the standard sets the level at which a system must be cleaned and re-tested.
Across Sheffield 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.
Real jobs, described by sector and area - never by a client's name.
At a food hall in a converted Kelham Island works, several kitchens shared long concealed ducts threaded through the old industrial structure. We surveyed the runs, cut access panels where they were boxed in, and cleaned them from canopy to fan, leaving a certificate and photo record.
An Ecclesall Road restaurant had a vertical riser to a roof fan packed with grease after years of service. We fitted compliant panels, cleaned the run back to bare metal, and set a next-due date matched to its heavy 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.
Kelham Island has gone from the beating heart of the steel industry to one of Sheffield's most exciting food districts, its old works and foundries reborn as food halls and taprooms - the Cutlery Works among them, the biggest independent food hall in the north. Kitchens improvised into industrial buildings run ductwork wherever it would fit, and that is exactly where grease hides. We survey, clean and certify the whole system so a Kelham Island kitchen stays fire-safe as well as busy.
Yes. We work throughout Sheffield and the wider South Yorkshire, including the city centre and the Devonshire Quarter, Ecclesall Road and London Road, Kelham Island and the Cutlery Works, out to Broomhill and Hunters Bar, and the Attercliffe and Lower Don Valley units.

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 South Yorkshire 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 South Yorkshire.
