What affects the quote in Duns Tew
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- The condition we find in the survey
- The scale of the work
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
About our kitchen extract cleaning in Duns Tew
The part of the system nobody sees is often the dirtiest. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Anything out of reach is noted in the report, and new panels can be fitted. We are often asked to deal with a kitchen taken over without any extract records and stale cooking odours from the system, on vertical risers, horizontal duct runs and canopies and hoods. Most calls from Duns Tew come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
A clean in Duns Tew covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
For a kitchen in or near Duns Tew, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as 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.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Duns Tew?
A lot of duct grease gets there because the filters let it through. Damaged, missing or overloaded filters let grease straight past, and from there it travels on to the fan.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
For kitchens in and around Duns Tew, the clean covers everything from the canopy to the discharge.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Duns Tew run smoothly.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Move anything stored near the system

What staff can safely do
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A duct that is holed or coming apart
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Duns Tew
Fire safety in Duns Tew falls to Oxfordshire 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. Environmental health officers from Cherwell council inspect food businesses in Duns Tew. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary Magdalene or anywhere around Duns Tew, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

How the job changes from site to site
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.
