Kitchen extract cleaning in Pachesham Park
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and a claim can be refused or reduced without it. The certificate and photo report from each clean in Pachesham Park give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. If you have poor airflow at the canopy and a system with no record of a TR19 clean, we can put it right, from plenums and filters, extract fans and discharge points onwards. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, in Pachesham Park it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.
For a kitchen in or near Pachesham Park, 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Grease, kitchens and Pachesham Park
The FSA’s data shows about 9 pubs and bars registered within about 1.5 miles of central Pachesham Park. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Pachesham Park is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Elmbridge council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Pachesham Park. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
The Homewood, about 3 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses near Pachesham Park; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

When to call us in Pachesham Park
The reason for all this is fire. Flames from a pan or grill can be pulled into the canopy by the fan, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. For a kitchen in Pachesham Park, keeping that fuel under control is part of the fire risk assessment.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Therfield School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- What insurance they carry
Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, and equipment can be switched back on once we have gone.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. A filter that’s clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, which slows build-up further down the system.
Questions from Pachesham Park
Which fire service covers Pachesham Park?
Surrey Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Pachesham Park. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Who inspects food businesses in Pachesham Park?
Food hygiene inspections in Pachesham Park are carried out by Elmbridge council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
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.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Many insurers ask for proof of regular cleaning to TR19, and many policies require it. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
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.
How the job changes from site to site
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. It’s cleaned as far as safe access allows, and any limits are recorded.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy catches the vapour, and the plenum behind the filters is where it first condenses. Both are scraped and degreased inside and out, with the filter housing cleaned too.
How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Pachesham Park can be planned properly.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Why act early in Pachesham Park
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. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow. With notice, the visit to Pachesham Park can be fitted around your bookings and events.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. 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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
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, next to our reports.
