How the job changes from site to site
Ductwork and risers
Grease builds up most where the duct turns. Those are among the points where we take readings before and after, so the report shows the difference.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Losing a service isn’t an option for most restaurants and pubs. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Redlands
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 Redlands give you that record for the maintenance log. We are often asked to deal with proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, on discharge points, canopies and hoods and extract fans. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Redlands? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Work in a small place like Redlands starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Other services in Redlands
For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Redlands and across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Common questions in Redlands
Do you work in villages like Redlands?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Redlands?
Kitchens in Redlands are inspected by Hart council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends and the kitchen is ready to cook when we leave.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Vertical risers
- Canopies and hoods
- Extract fans
- Horizontal duct runs
- Discharge points
- Plenums and filters
What we do, step by step
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. In a small place like Redlands, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- You send pictures or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Kitchen extracts in Redlands
Environmental health officers from Hart council inspect food businesses in Redlands. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Redlands is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Crondall Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of All Saints or anywhere around Redlands, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Fleet Community Hospital (about 3.6 miles north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will normally have a quote within one working day.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date isn’t missed.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
