Kitchen extract cleaning near Dunk's Green

Kitchen extract cleaning in Dunk's Green, done properly

Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Send a few photos of the canopy and filters when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Dunk's Green, usually within one working day. If you’re dealing with grease dripping from the canopy or filters and an extract that no longer clears the smoke, we can put it right. When a restaurant in Dunk's Green asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is exactly what we do: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.

Most kitchens in Dunk's Green fall into one of BESA’s three bands: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and yearly for light use, adjusted by what the grease readings show.

In a small place like Dunk's Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.

We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Aftercare tips

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
  • Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
  • Refit filters properly after cleaning
  • Give the canopy a daily wipe

You get a photo report after every clean. It shows the system before and after, part by part, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.

Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.

Common questions in Dunk's Green

Can you come to Dunk's Green after we close?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Dunk's Green doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Do you clean school canteen extracts around Dunk's Green out of term?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Around Dunk's Green, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 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.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?

The minimum is set by BESA guidance on daily use, from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Heavy frying and grilling can mean shorter intervals, and readings will tell you.

Do you work in Dunk's Green?

Yes. We work in Dunk's Green and the rest of Kent, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Will I get a certificate after the clean?

Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. It records what was cleaned, what wasn’t accessible and the recommended next clean date.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

How far ahead should we book?

Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We normally quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

Why act early in Dunk's Green

A clogged extract does not only raise the fire risk. Blocked filters and narrowed ducts slow the airflow, leaving the kitchen hot and smoky and the fan strains to keep up. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Dunk's Green.

  1. You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
  2. Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
  3. On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
  4. We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
  5. We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • 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 photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.

How the job changes from site to site

Ductwork and risers

Vertical risers carry the air up through the building, and grease runs down their walls and pools at the base. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.

Extract fan and discharge

The discharge is where air leaves the building, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.

What a clean won’t put right

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • A duct that’s holed or coming apart
  • An undersized canopy or fan
  • A grease trap that needs emptying

If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
