Kitchen extract cleaning in Eynsford, done properly
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Eynsford, our certificate and photo report give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. If you have extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and grease drips onto cooking equipment, we can put it right. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Eynsford typically mean the kitchen extract, and that’s exactly what we do: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.
What can be cleaned depends on what can be reached. Sections without access panels are recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted so they’re cleaned next time.
Work in a small place like Eynsford starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

How the job changes from site to site
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens often cook for long hours, frying and grilling, so their cleaning interval is often 3 or 6 months under BESA guidance. Cleans are done after close, overnight or before opening.
Canopy and plenum
The plenum is out of sight behind the filters, so it’s easy to forget. We take the filters out and clean the plenum and housing thoroughly.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. For a village or hamlet like Eynsford, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Ask for a quote
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Eynsford
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Eynsford kitchens: local notes
Look up Eynsford on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens in and around Eynsford, up to about a mile and a half out. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Eynsford sits within the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Kitchens in Eynsford get their food hygiene inspections from Sevenoaks council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
A hospital like Darenth Park Hospital, about 5.1 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. School kitchens, at schools like The Anthony Roper Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What state the system is in
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The scale of the work
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The postcode and the type of business
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Eynsford, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send photos or your last report if you can. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.
When to call us in Eynsford
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. Flames from a pan or grill can be pulled into the canopy by the fan, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. That’s why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
A kitchen near Eynsford station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

Common questions in Eynsford
Do you work in villages like Eynsford?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Eynsford?
It’s Kent Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Eynsford. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
When do you clean the extract?
Out of hours: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. The equipment is switched off and left to cool, and we hand the kitchen back ready for the next service.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?

What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
How long will the clean take?
It takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. We will confirm the time when we quote.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
Why act early in Eynsford
A clogged extract does not 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. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What you get with us
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- In business since 2009
- Each visit written up, with pictures
- One number for every site across the South East and London

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
