Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Martyr's Green
Duct Doctor has been cleaning kitchen extract systems since 2009. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and are fully insured. If you’re dealing with a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit, we can put it right, from discharge points, canopies and hoods and vertical risers onwards. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Martyr's Green typically mean the kitchen extract, and that’s exactly what we do: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Martyr's Green goes well beyond the canopy.
For a kitchen in or near Martyr's Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. In a small place like Martyr's Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
How to prepare
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Martyr's Green
Is Martyr's Green within the area you cover?
Yes, Martyr's Green is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Martyr's Green?
Martyr's Green is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?
Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next clean is due.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before work begins.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve dealt with extract grease.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?
A small kitchen with a short duct can be done in a few hours, while long runs and tall risers take longer and may need more than one visit. We will tell you how long when we quote.
Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
What affects the quote in Martyr's Green
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Where the site is and how we reach it
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

Kitchen extracts in Martyr's Green
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Martyr's Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Food hygiene inspections in Martyr's Green are the job of Elmbridge council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Martyr's Green. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
A hospital like Woking Community Hospital, about 5.1 miles west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.
Grease filters
Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
Why deal with it now?
Any food business in Martyr's Green can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and they look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment, extraction included. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
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 any work starts.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Martyr's Green
It’s common for parts of a duct to have been missed for years. Most of the time it’s because there were never enough access panels, so nobody could get to them. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Martyr's Green (Byfleet Manor is about 2.2 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care.
