What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Ductwork cleaning in Eynsham
Many ducts were installed with too few access doors. Where a section can’t be reached, TR19 expects it to be recorded on the report, and we can fit new access panels so it’s cleaned next time. An honest report beats a guess. The work covers vertical risers, attenuators and access panels, and people most often call us about duct runs that can’t be reached and smells of old cooking grease from the ductwork.
For a smaller kitchen near Eynsham, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Fixed quotes for ductwork cleaning in Eynsham
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The number of sites or systems
- How big the system is
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The site address and the type of premises
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
FAQs for Eynsham
Which fire authority looks after Eynsham?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Eynsham. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you get to a site in Eynsham?
Yes, Eynsham is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Are you insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
How often should kitchen ducts be cleaned?
It depends mostly on daily cooking hours. Kitchens cooking 12 to 16 hours a day need it at least every 3 months, while lighter use can go longer.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Can you fit access panels in our ductwork?
Yes. We will point out where panels are needed, and we can fit them so those sections are cleaned in future.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access. A site near Eynsham normally has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
- Grease thickness is measured at set points.
- Out of hours, the area is protected and the access panels opened.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- We close up, re-test, photograph and record anything out of reach.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Flag drips from the duct straight away
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Make sure filters are seated properly
Every panel we open is refitted when we finish, and the area around them is cleaned down. Waste grease and water are taken away.
Watch for warning signs between cleans: grease leaking from duct joints, smells, or a fan that sounds rough. Testing will show whether any section has reached 500 microns.
When it’s something else
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what ductwork cleaning will not do:
- A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)
- Duct sections that need replacing
- A failed fan motor at the end of the duct (a fan repair job)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Eynsham kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 9 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Eynsham and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. The duct above a busy canopy coats itself in grease long before anyone sees it. Eynsham is covered by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Kitchens in Eynsham get their food hygiene inspections from West Oxfordshire council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Bartholomew School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Blenheim Palace is about 4.1 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Radcliffe Infirmary is the nearest hospital to Eynsham, about 5.1 miles east.
Eynsham is about 5 miles east of Witney, in Oxfordshire. From the centre of Eynsham to the outskirts, ductwork cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from a single unit to a large public building. Our area takes in 443 places across Oxfordshire, large and small. You can also see our page for Oxford, roughly 7 miles from Eynsham.
We work across OX29 for ductwork cleaning and the roads nearby. Whether your site is on High Street, Station Road and Back Lane or a nearby road, our technicians can take on the work. Close by, we work in Swinford (1 mile south-east), Cassington (2 miles north-east), Farmoor (2 miles south-east), Sutton (2 miles south-west) and Filchampstead (3 miles south-east). We also work in nearby towns such as Oxford (7 miles east), Didcot (13 miles south-east), Bicester (13 miles north-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (8 miles south-east), Witney (5 miles west) and Carterton (9 miles west).
Local landmarks in Eynsham
We work in commercial kitchens and buildings around The Jolly Sportsman Public House And Attached Outbuildings and Eynsham Community Primary School and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Hanborough station, roughly 2.9 miles north of the centre. Nearby you will also find Radcliffe Infirmary (5.1 miles east) and Oxford Bus Museum (3 miles north). Open spaces near Eynsham include Cumnor Hill and Hook Meadow and The Trap Grounds.
What happens if it’s left?
There’s no law that names TR19. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and grease in the duct is part of that. A planned visit to Eynsham fits your hours; an emergency does not.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
