TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Marley
Any kitchen we clean in Marley gets exactly the same specification as everywhere else we work. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. At the finish there’s a TR19 certificate and a before and after photo report. If you have a kitchen taken over without any extract records and a system with no record of a TR19 clean, we can help, from vertical risers, horizontal duct runs and plenums and filters onwards. When a restaurant in Marley asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is exactly what we do: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
For a kitchen in or near Marley, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
You get a photo report after every clean. Before and after pictures show each part of the system, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.
Keep the fan on throughout service. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The number of sites or systems
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Any permits to work or inductions
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Kitchen extracts in Marley
Sea air reaches Marley, which sits within about 3 miles of the coast. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. Kent Fire and Rescue Service covers Marley. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. In Marley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Dover council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Northbourne Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Marley (Walmer Castle is about 3.5 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care. Where a hall near Church of St Augustine, or anywhere in Marley, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Marley is about 3 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. From the centre of Marley to the outskirts, kitchen extract cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates. 922 places in Kent are on our list, large and small.

How the job changes from site to site
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. We clean after close or before opening.
Grease filters
A filter that is missing or bent lets grease straight past. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that do not.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Marley
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we clear up before we go. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Marley.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Clear the space around the work
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Marley
Does being near the coast affect kitchen extract cleaning in Marley?
It can. Marley is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Do you work in villages like Marley?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where necessary.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
Many policies require TR19 cleaning, and insurers often ask to see the certificate. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
Our work is to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, with certificates issued through the BESCA portal. Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
Allow as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. We will confirm the time when we quote.
