TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Burpham
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Burpham, typically within one working day. The work covers discharge points, vertical risers and canopies and hoods, and the jobs we see most are poor airflow at the canopy and grease drips onto cooking equipment. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Burpham? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
Around a smaller place like Burpham, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Burpham can normally be finished without a second trip.
- We survey the system, from your pictures or on site, canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Advice
What affects the quote in Burpham
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.

How the job changes from site to site
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.
Questions from Burpham
Will you come out to Burpham?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Burpham is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work at weekends in Burpham?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Burpham can fit around your hours. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?
Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and 12-monthly for light use. Measured grease levels set the real interval.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
TR19® itself isn’t law. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve dealt with extract grease.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Burpham?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
Kitchen extracts in Burpham
The Food Standards Agency lists about 9 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses in and around Burpham, up to about a mile and a half out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. The fire and rescue service for Burpham is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Environmental health officers from Guildford council inspect food businesses in Burpham. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like George Abbot School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Spirit or elsewhere in Burpham, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Local landmarks in Burpham
Around Burpham, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Burpham Foundation Primary School, Riverside Park and St Peter's Catholic School. Burpham’s nearest station is London Road (Guildford) station, about 1.4 miles south-west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Guildford Castle (2 miles south-west) and Surrey Infantry Museum (1.4 miles east). Not far away are Silent Pool and Pewley Down.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.
Keep the fan on throughout service. Switching it off early leaves vapour to settle on the canopy and plenum, and the next clean has more to do.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
When to call us in Burpham
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Clandon Park is about 1.7 miles east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
