Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Kingston Bagpuize
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. We’re often asked to deal with years of baked-on grease in the ducts and a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history, across discharge points, vertical risers and plenums and filters. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, it’s the job we do every week across Oxfordshire.
The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, so that’s where most of the work in Kingston Bagpuize goes.
For a smaller kitchen near Kingston Bagpuize, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
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. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, and equipment can be switched back on once we have gone.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe is not a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
Kingston Bagpuize kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Kingston Bagpuize. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Kingston Bagpuize. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Environmental health officers from Vale of White Horse council inspect food businesses in Kingston Bagpuize. 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.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Longworth House is about 1.4 miles north-west), access may need planning. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St John the Baptist or anywhere around Kingston Bagpuize, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Abingdon Community Hospital about 5.1 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

FAQs for Kingston Bagpuize
Will you come out to Kingston Bagpuize?

Which council inspects kitchens in Kingston Bagpuize?
The local authority for Kingston Bagpuize is Vale of White Horse council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 sit alongside that, and we’re fully insured.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
Allow anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. The survey tells us how long your system will need.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
It depends on how many hours a day the kitchen cooks. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. We will recommend a date after measuring the grease.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.

What happens on the day

On site, the work takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. In a place like Kingston Bagpuize, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Advice
Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
