About our kitchen extract cleaning in Broadwater
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. The certificate and photo report from each clean in Broadwater give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. We’re often asked to deal with stale cooking odours from the system and a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate, on horizontal duct runs, discharge points and canopies and hoods. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Broadwater covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
In a smaller place like Broadwater, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
We’ve 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 Broadwater
Which fire authority looks after Broadwater?
That’s West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can sea air affect kitchen extract cleaning in Broadwater?
It can. Broadwater is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
What do I get after the clean?
Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next clean is due.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 sit alongside that, and we’re fully insured.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Broadwater
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.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Leave it or put it right?
Grease build-up causes everyday problems too. Blocked filters and narrowed ducts slow the airflow, leaving the kitchen hot and smoky, while the fan works harder to move less air. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow. Light use slows the build-up but doesn’t stop it.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Broadwater: the local picture
Broadwater lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 197 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 72 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Broadwater. Wherever food is cooked under a canopy, the extract above it gathers grease and needs cleaning on a schedule. Environmental health officers from Worthing council inspect food businesses in Broadwater. 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.
Church and community hall kitchens, near St. Mary's Church or anywhere around Broadwater, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If you run a café or takeaway near Worthing station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.
Broadwater is about 1 mile east of Worthing, in West Sussex. From the centre of Broadwater to the outskirts, kitchen extract cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates. Across West Sussex, we cover 371 places, and Broadwater is one of them. For sites nearby, see our Brighton page (11 miles or so).

What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. For a site near Broadwater, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

What affects the quote in Broadwater
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
- The condition we find in the survey
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- A few general shots of the system
- Your last certificate, test record or report
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Broadwater
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. That is why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Grease smells coming from the extract
A hospital like Worthing Hospital, about 0.9 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix
Not every problem is solved by kitchen extract cleaning, and we’ll tell you before we start. It doesn’t solve:
- A duct that is holed or coming apart
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
