Kitchen extract cleaning in Hoe Gate
Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. It cools inside the duct and settles as a sticky film that thickens month by month. That film is fuel, and cleaning the whole system is how you keep it under control. If you’re dealing with cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and years of baked-on grease in the ducts, we can help, from discharge points, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters onwards. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Hoe Gate: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
Somewhere as small as Hoe Gate, 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.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are 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.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Part by part
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, each section is cleaned and photographed before and after.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. Cleans are done after close, overnight or before opening.
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
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.
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.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Hoe Gate before we set off.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before work begins.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Common problems we fix in Hoe Gate
What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Frying, grilling and roasting send far more fat into the canopy than steaming or boiling, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
Where a hall near Church of the Holy Trinity, or anywhere in Hoe Gate, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
