Ductwork cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Stonebridge Green
Ductwork in Stonebridge Green is cleaned the same thorough way as everywhere else we work: we test the grease first, remove thick deposits by hand and degrease what’s left. Post-clean readings and photos complete the record. If you are dealing with heavy grease at the base of a riser and a grease test showing the duct is overdue, we can help.
For a kitchen in or near Stonebridge Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How we price ductwork cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The size of the system
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- A few general shots of the system
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it

Stonebridge Green questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Stonebridge Green?
That is Ashford council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Stonebridge Green. 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 Stonebridge Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Stonebridge Green keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
How long does it take to clean extract ducts?
Duct length, access and grease levels all affect it. As a guide, it takes from a few hours to more than one visit, depending on duct length and access.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always survey first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Common problems we fix in Stonebridge Green
Ducts in Stonebridge Green gather grease for the same reasons as ducts anywhere: hours of cooking, the type of food and how well the filters are kept. Under BESA guidance, the minimum interval is 3, 6 or 12 months, by daily cooking hours.
Look out for any of the following:
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
- Duct runs with no cleaning record
- High readings at a recent grease test
- Thick deposits at the bottom of a vertical duct
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Egerton Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- What insurance they carry
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Whether they recommend a next date
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Leaking duct joints that need repair
- Parts of the duct with no way in
- A duct that’s too small or badly routed for the kitchen (a design issue)
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on in Stonebridge Green

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Ductwork cleaning around Stonebridge Green
Kitchens in Stonebridge Green get their food hygiene inspections from Ashford council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Stonebridge Green sits within the area of Kent 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.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St James or anywhere around Stonebridge Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Have the grease measured if cooking hours go up
- Leave a way through to the access panels
- Make sure filters are seated properly
- Book the next clean before the recommended date
File the paperwork in the maintenance log. It’s the evidence an insurer or inspector may ask for, and the photos make the duct’s condition easy to see.
Some signs mean the duct needs attention sooner: drips from the ductwork, stale smells or a noisy fan. A grease thickness test can confirm whether a spot clean is needed.
What happens on the day
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Stonebridge Green knowing what to expect.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- A fixed quote follows, based on what we found.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- We take extra care at bends and at the foot of risers.
- Readings, photos and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
How to prepare
