Kitchen extract cleaning in Marsh Green, Isle of Wight
Kitchen extract cleaning for Marsh Green, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Marsh Green
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Marsh Green, our certificate and photo report give you that record for the maintenance log. The work covers canopies and hoods, vertical risers and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a system with no record of a TR19 clean and years of baked-on grease in the ducts. Need a TR19 duct cleaning contractor for Marsh Green? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.
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 Marsh Green goes.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What a clean will not put right
Not every problem is solved by kitchen extract cleaning, and we will tell you before any work starts. It does not solve:
- A broken extract fan that will not run
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that is for a ductwork contractor)
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Plenums and filters
- Discharge points
- Canopies and hoods
- Extract fans
- Vertical risers
- Horizontal duct runs
Different parts, different methods
Canopy and plenum
Whether it’s one hood or a long island canopy, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School kitchens can look lightly used but still need a TR19 clean at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. Holidays make it simple to schedule.
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, so you can see the difference in numbers as well as photos. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
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.
Leave it or put it right?
Grease build-up causes everyday problems too. Blocked filters and narrowed ducts slow the airflow, leaving the kitchen hot and smoky and the fan strains to keep up. Grease drips, smells and condensation are common next. It’s simpler to plan the work at Marsh Green now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Kitchen extracts in Marsh Green
The coast is only about 1 mile from Marsh Green. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. Look up Marsh Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Marsh Green. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Marsh Green sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
School kitchens, at schools like Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St. Mary's Church or elsewhere in Marsh Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Whitecroft Hospital about 5 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Marsh Green and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Questions from Marsh Green
Who is the fire and rescue service for Marsh Green?
Fire safety enforcement in Marsh Green is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can sea air affect kitchen extract cleaning in Marsh Green?
It can. Being within about 1 mile of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Marsh Green than inland. A fan housing that’s rusting near the coast can fail sooner, so it’s worth catching early.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
A TR19 certificate, plus a full photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next clean is due.
What is TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
We clean to BESA TR19® Grease as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, and certificates go through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Because a dirty extract can spread a fire through a building. Many policies say the extract must be cleaned to TR19, and a claim may be reduced without proof, so keep every certificate.
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. Your report gives a recommended next clean date.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
