Kitchen extraction cleaning in Conyer
We cover Conyer for TR19 Grease cleaning of complete kitchen extract systems, from canopy to discharge. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports on every job.
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
What happens if it’s left?
A clogged extract doesn’t only raise the fire risk. Filters block, airflow drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier and the fan strains to keep up. Grease drips, smells and condensation are common next. If the system at a site near Conyer fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

Kitchen duct cleaning in Conyer
Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That film is fuel, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. We are often asked to deal with a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and an inspection that picked up a dirty extract, on extract fans, horizontal duct runs and canopies and hoods. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Conyer? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Conyer goes well beyond the canopy.
In a small place like Conyer, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Common questions in Conyer
Which council inspects kitchens in Conyer?
The local authority for Conyer is Swale council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Conyer?
Kent Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Conyer. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?
Every clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log with the fire risk assessment, ready for your insurer or an inspection.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19® itself is not 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.
Is Conyer in your area?
Yes. We cover Conyer and across Kent, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Conyer knowing what to expect.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Conyer?
It’s common for parts of a duct to have been missed for years. Most of the time it’s because there were never enough access panels, so those sections were never reached. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
A TR19® clean in Conyer doesn’t stop at the filters: the plenum, ductwork, fan and discharge are cleaned too.
What your quote should include
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether a survey comes first
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Conyer
Conyer lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. It’s Swale council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Conyer. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. The fire and rescue service for Conyer is Kent 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.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Conyer, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What affects the quote in Conyer

- What state the system is in
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The scale of the work
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

What kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- A fan motor that has burnt out
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
What the work covers
- Canopies and hoods
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Discharge points
- Extract fans
- Vertical risers
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
