How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Foscot
We have been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers horizontal duct runs, plenums and filters and extract fans, and the jobs we see most are years of baked-on grease in the ducts and grease drips onto cooking equipment. Need a TR19 duct cleaning contractor for Foscot? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
A clean in Foscot covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
For a kitchen in or near Foscot, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Foscot
Can the work in Foscot be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Foscot needn’t be disturbed. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Can you get to a site in Foscot?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Foscot?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before any work starts.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
We are members of Vent Hygiene Elite, the scheme run by BESCA, and we clean to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What happens on the day
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Foscot can be planned properly.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before work begins.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
Kitchen extract cleaning around Foscot
Foscot is covered by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Foscot, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from West Oxfordshire council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
A kitchen near Kingham station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Bledington Primary School or anywhere near Foscot, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- What state the system is in
- The number of sites or systems
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
For kitchen extract cleaning in Foscot, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Foscot?
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. Once it cools inside the ductwork, it condenses onto every surface it touches, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Moore Cottage Hospital is the nearest hospital to Foscot, about 5 miles west.
What your quote should include
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
Why it’s worth doing now in Foscot
Environmental health officers inspect food businesses, in Foscot as everywhere else, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters will not go unnoticed. A clean extract is one less thing to worry about on the day. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What you get with us
- We diagnose before we treat
- Trading since 2009
- A written report with pictures after every visit
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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. Leave those to us.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
