What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Somewhere like Nether Street, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.

About our kitchen deep cleaning in Nether Street
Think of a deep clean as a full check-up for the kitchen. We look in the places daily cleaning misses and leave the kitchen ready to cook. From there, the daily routine is easier to keep up. If you’re dealing with grease built up on walls and ceilings and greasy, slippery kitchen floors, we can help, from stainless steel surfaces, ranges and ovens and floors and floor drains onwards.
Work in a small place like Nether Street starts with agreeing a date and access.
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’re fully insured.

What we are called out for in Nether Street
Busy periods leave little time for anything beyond the essentials. A few busy weeks in Nether Street or anywhere else are enough for grime to build behind and above the equipment.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grime in corners that pests could exploit
- A kitchen clean booked with the extract clean
- Grease built up on walls and ceilings
- Hardened deposits on kitchen equipment
Historic houses such as Much Hadham Palace (about 2.3 miles north) are part of the area around Nether Street, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps.
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- What insurance they carry
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
What your team can do, and what needs us
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, and that is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Nether Street kitchens: local notes
Look up Nether Street on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens across Nether Street and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Kitchens like these build up grease behind and under equipment, on walls and on ceilings. Food hygiene inspections in Nether Street are the job of East Hertfordshire council’s environmental health team. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Princess Alexandra Hospital, about 3.8 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Nether Street. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Widford School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Parking and loading at the site
- How big the system is
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any previous report or certificate
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Questions from Nether Street
Can you work in Nether Street outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Nether Street can fit around your hours. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Nether Street?
Kitchens in Nether Street are inspected by East Hertfordshire council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a written, dated record with pictures of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What types of premises do you cover?
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.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Deal with spills straight away
The kitchen is handed back ready for the next service. We walk round with you or your manager before we go.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well, rather than trying to catch up afterwards.
