Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Wentworth
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’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. Typical jobs include a system with no record of a TR19 clean and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit, on discharge points, vertical risers and canopies and hoods. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Wentworth covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
Somewhere as small as Wentworth, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Wentworth: your questions answered
Can school kitchens in Wentworth be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Wentworth, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
Do you work overnight in Wentworth?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?
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.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Many insurers ask for proof of regular cleaning to TR19, and many policies require it. An insurer may refuse or reduce a claim if there’s no evidence, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Do you cover Wentworth?
Yes. We work in Wentworth and across Surrey, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Wentworth: the local picture
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 19 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Wentworth and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. Kitchens in Wentworth get their food hygiene inspections from Runnymede council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Wentworth falls to Surrey 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.
Historic houses near Wentworth, such as Botleys Mansion about 3.1 miles south-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. A hospital like St. Peter's Hospital, about 3.3 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
Wentworth is about 3 miles south-west of Egham, in Surrey. From the centre of Wentworth to the outskirts, kitchen extract cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates.

What’s near Wentworth
Locally, jobs take us to businesses close to Riverside Walk and the streets around them. Wentworth’s nearest station is Longcross station, about 1 mile south. Well-known places in the area include St. Peter's Hospital (3.3 miles south-east) and Chobham Museum (3.7 miles south). Green spaces nearby include Gracious Pond and St Ann's Hill.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
When the clean is finished, grease readings are taken again at the same points, 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.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, which slows build-up further down the system.
Different parts, different methods
Grease filters
Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that do not.
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, and grease can collect there too. It’s cleaned as far as safe access allows, and any limits are recorded.
When something else is needed
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning will not do:
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The number of sites or systems
- The condition we find in the survey
- How big the system is
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The site address and the type of premises
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.

How it works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Wentworth.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- 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.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

When to call us in Wentworth
The type of cooking changes the amount of grease. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Christ Church CofE Aided Infant School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Before booking anyone

- Whether a survey comes first
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
