How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Chilton
Many kitchens book a deep clean alongside their TR19® extract clean. We clean the extract system and the room it serves and the whole kitchen benefits. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. If you have grease stains on walls near the cooking line and food debris trapped under the range, we can put it right, from floors and floor drains, ranges and ovens and walls and ceilings onwards.
For a kitchen near Chilton, deep cleans are booked around opening hours, often on a closed day, and the journey is planned ahead.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

FAQs for Chilton
Do you clean school kitchens in Chilton in the summer holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 23 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Chilton. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Do you work in villages like Chilton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?
It depends on the size of the kitchen, the equipment and how much build-up there is. We can quote from photos or a site visit, and you will get a fixed quote.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
Will a deep clean help with an EHO inspection?
Yes, inspectors look at the whole kitchen. No clean can promise a rating but a deep clean gives you a clean starting point.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not let debris build up behind the line
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
- Repair worn surfaces that trap grime
Equipment is put back in place before we leave, ready for your staff to check and start up. There’s nothing extra to do once it’s back in service.
Before a busy season or a big event, a deep clean gives you a clean start instead of chasing grime later.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. For a place like Chilton, we load the van from the survey notes so the work can be done in one visit where possible.
- First, we walk the kitchen with you and agree the scope.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- We work from the top down, starting with ceilings and walls.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
How to get a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What else we do in Chilton
When to call us in Chilton
Every service sends grease into the air. Some is caught by the extract, but some settles on walls, ceilings and equipment. In time, it forms a tacky film that daily cleaning struggles with.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
- Cooking equipment caked in carbon
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
- Food debris trapped under the range
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Laurence or elsewhere in Chilton, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking.
Before booking anyone

- What insurance they carry
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether the figure could change on the day
What affects the quote in Chilton
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- The scale of the work
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The condition we find in the survey
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Chilton
Look up Chilton on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 88 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 44 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Chilton. Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen tidy, but kitchens like these still need a periodic deep clean. In Chilton, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Thanet council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
