About our ductwork cleaning in Hampton Hill
Duct Doctor has cleaned kitchen extract ductwork since 2009, working across London and the South East. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, our duct cleaning is done to BESA TR19® Grease, with each certificate issued through the BESCA portal. The work covers vertical risers, bends and junctions and multi-storey ducts, and the jobs we see most are hardened, baked-on grease in long horizontal runs and duct runs that can’t be reached.
London kitchens tend to trade late and open early, so extract cleaning in Hampton Hill is normally done overnight, after the last service. Before the clean, we agree loading, parking and roof access with whoever manages the building.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. If your building in Hampton Hill has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- The duct route is surveyed and every access point found.
- We take grease readings along the route.
- Once the kitchen has closed, we protect the area and open the panels.
- Thick grease is scraped out, then the runs and risers are degreased.
- Panels are closed, readings and pictures repeated, and unreachable sections recorded.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Ductwork cleaning around Hampton Hill

Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Environmental health officers from Richmond-Upon-Thames council inspect food businesses in Hampton Hill. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Hampton Hill sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Hampton Hill United Reformed Church, or anywhere in Hampton Hill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. A kitchen near Fulwell station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Run the extract fan throughout service
- Keep your cleaning records together
- Ask for a grease thickness test if the kitchen gets busier
- Report any grease dripping from duct joints
Access panels are closed and sealed back up after cleaning, and the area around them is cleaned down. Waste grease and water are taken away.
The less grease gets past the canopy, the cleaner the duct stays. Clean, properly seated filters are the duct’s best protection.

Other services in Hampton Hill
Do you need ductwork cleaning in Hampton Hill?
Many ducts do not have enough access panels. Sections between panels go uncleaned, sometimes since the system was installed, and grease there keeps thickening unseen.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Grease pooling at the foot of the riser
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
- A rancid smell from the extract duct
- A duct clean needed for an insurer
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Hampton Hill is Teddington Memorial Hospital, about 0.6 miles east.

How the job changes from site to site
Vertical risers
Cleaning a riser needs access along its height. Any part that cannot be safely reached is recorded.
Multi-storey and shared buildings
A duct that climbs several floors may be cleaned over more than one visit. We agree a sequence that suits the building, out of hours where possible.
Hampton Hill: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Hampton Hill?
Food hygiene inspections in Hampton Hill are carried out by Richmond-Upon-Thames council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can parking be tricky for a job in Hampton Hill?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit typically gets round them.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
How long does it take to clean extract ducts?
Short runs are quick, while long ducts and tall risers can need more than one visit. Visits are planned out of hours.
Is Hampton Hill in your area?
Yes. We work in Hampton Hill and across Greater London, within our South East and London area. To book, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Why deal with it now?
Old grease in a duct for a kitchen in Hampton Hill does not stay soft. Heat and age turn it into a thick, stubborn crust, which makes each delayed clean a bigger one. A busy site in Hampton Hill builds up dirt and wear quickly, so putting it off makes the eventual job larger.
