Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hammill Park
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with photos of the canopy and filters, and you will have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in Hammill Park, normally within one working day. The work covers canopies and hoods, vertical risers and extract fans, and people most often call us about heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Hammill Park, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork, wherever you are in Kent.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.
Somewhere as small as Hammill Park, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. For a village or hamlet like Hammill Park, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We survey the system, from your pictures or on site, canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Move anything stored near the system
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
Advice
When to call us in Hammill Park
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.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hammill Park (Goodnestone Park is about 2.6 miles west), fitting access panels needs care.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
How the job changes from site to site
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease runs down their walls and pools at the base. They’re cleaned through access points along their height.
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. We clean what can be reached and note anything that cannot.
What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Grease, kitchens and Hammill Park
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 pubs and bars within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hammill Park. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Food hygiene inspections in Hammill Park are the job of Dover council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Hammill Park sits within the area of Kent 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.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere in Hammill Park, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. School kitchens, at schools like Eastry Church of England Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Questions from Hammill Park
Can you get to a site in Hammill Park?
Yes. Hammill Park is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you work at weekends in Hammill Park?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Hammill Park doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19 isn’t written into law, but the responsible person still has a legal duty under the Fire Safety Order 2005. TR19 is the standard insurers and fire officers expect, and many policies require it.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?
Length of duct, grease levels and access all affect it. As a guide, it takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the pictures. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, which slows build-up further down the system.
