In a village or hamlet like Holloway, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. 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.

How the job changes from site to site
Grease troughs and gutters
Some troughs drain to a cup or drawer, that’s emptied and cleaned too, and we will show staff where it is.
Pub and hotel kitchens
A hotel or pub kitchen can rarely close for long. We clean the canopy overnight or between services so the kitchen keeps trading.

About canopy and hood cleaning
How we price canopy cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The scale of the work
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The number of sites or systems
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A fan that can’t pull enough air because it’s worn out
- A dirty extract fan further along the system
- Filters that no longer seal in the housing
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Holloway questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Holloway?
Food hygiene inspections in Holloway are carried out by Windsor and Maidenhead council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Do you work at weekends in Holloway?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not typically. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we are there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Grease, kitchens and Holloway
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 7 pubs, bars and clubs in and around Holloway, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. It’s Windsor and Maidenhead council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Holloway. 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 Holloway is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Burchetts Green CofE Infants' School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Saint John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Holloway, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mark's Hospital (about 1.8 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
The process
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Visits to a village like Holloway are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We start by checking the canopy, filters and plenum.
- Cooking equipment is left to cool and the area under the canopy protected.
- We remove the grease filters and clean the plenum and filter housing.
- We degrease the canopy shell, its seams and the grease troughs.
- Clean filters are refitted and before and after pictures go into your report.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area

Advice
Between visits
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Run the extract the whole time you are cooking
- Check filters aren’t leaving gaps
- Tell us when the canopy starts to drip
- Wipe the canopy down at close every day
File the report alongside your fire risk assessment, so it’s ready when an EHO, insurer or fire officer asks. Before and after pictures speak for themselves.
Empty the grease troughs and cups before they fill. Most canopy drips start with a full trough, so make emptying them part of the closing routine.
For landlords and multi-site operators
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Holloway and across Windsor and Maidenhead. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
