Kitchen extraction cleaning in Burwood Park
Kitchen extract cleaning across Burwood Park and nearby, timed so the site keeps working and finished with a written report and photos.
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct

For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Burwood Park
Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. It cools inside the duct and settles as a sticky film that thickens month by month. That film is fuel, and cleaning the whole system is how you keep it under control. The work covers extract fans, canopies and hoods and discharge points, and common reasons people get in touch are rancid smells from grease in the duct and grease dripping from the canopy or filters. Need a TR19 duct cleaning contractor for Burwood Park? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.
In a village or hamlet like Burwood Park, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What we’re called out for in Burwood Park
How fast grease builds up depends mostly on how long the kitchen cooks each day. BESA guidance sets minimum cleaning intervals of every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours a day, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours, and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Those are minimums, and grease readings can show a kitchen needs cleaning sooner.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
Commuter trade near Walton-On-Thames station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.

What else we do in Burwood Park
Kitchen extract cleaning in Burwood Park: the local picture
The Food Standards Agency lists about 14 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Burwood Park. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Kitchens in Burwood Park get their food hygiene inspections from Elmbridge council. 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. Burwood Park sits within the area of Surrey 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.
For schools such as Cleves School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; No. 2 New Zealand General Hospital is the nearest hospital to Burwood Park, about 1.6 miles north.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How big the system is
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after photos show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Visits to a village like Burwood Park are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- 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.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Burwood Park
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Burwood Park?
That is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Burwood Park out of term?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Burwood Park, the Food Standards Agency lists about 8 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Usually, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Do we have to close the kitchen for the clean?
We clean while the kitchen is closed, so evenings, overnight, early mornings and weekends are all options. We need the equipment switched off and cooled first.
