How kitchen extract cleaning works in CR90

Duct Doctor has been cleaning kitchen extract systems since 2009. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and are fully insured. We are often asked to deal with poor airflow at the canopy and rancid smells from grease in the duct, across vertical risers, extract fans and discharge points.

We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time.

  1. We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
  2. Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
  3. With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
  4. Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
  5. Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.

What you’ll pay

No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Ask for a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.

Around Broad Green

Typical jobs here are in premises near Elmwood Infant School, The Half Moon pub and The Archbishop Lanfranc School and the streets around them. You’ll also find Harris Invictus Academy Croydon (0.5 miles south), Waddon Ponds (1.3 miles south-west) and Church of St Saviour (under half a mile north-east). The closest station to Broad Green is West Croydon station, about 0.6 miles south. Nearby you’ll also find Centrale Croydon (0.8 miles south) and Croydon University Hospital (within half a mile north-west). For a walk, there’s Duppas Hill and Biggin Wood.

Kitchen extract cleaning around CR90

From Broad Green and Old Town to its smaller places, CR90 has kitchens of every size. Each extract is cleaned to the same TR19® standard, canopy to discharge.

CR90 is within the area we cover, which takes in London and the South East. Every job is surveyed first and quoted at a fixed price, wherever it is in CR90.

Broad Green: Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Saviour, or anywhere in Broad Green, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Commuter trade near West Croydon station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.

For landlords and multi-site operators

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

Why deal with it now?

Any food business in CR90 can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and they look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment, extraction included. A clean extract is one less thing to worry about on the day.

What your quote should include

  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate

Part by part

Grease filters

We clean the grease filters as part of the job, and refitted so they sit properly in the housing. Damaged ones are noted on the report.

Canopy and plenum

Grease meets the system first at the canopy and the plenum behind the filters. We clean both inside and out, including the filter housing.

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in CR90

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • How big the system is
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits

What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • A few general shots of the system
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Any previous report or certificate

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

FAQs for CR90

How do you protect the area?

We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

How much notice do you need?

It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?

We clean every part the grease travels through. Canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge are all included, reached through access panels where needed.

What happens to the waste?

It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.

How long does a kitchen extract clean take?

Length of duct, grease levels and access all affect it. Most jobs take one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.

What accreditations do you hold?

Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 sit alongside that, and we are fully insured.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
