Our kitchen extract cleaning service in GU27
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. The work covers vertical risers, discharge points and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and missing paperwork after a change of operator.
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

Kitchen extract cleaning around GU27
Kitchens across GU27 cook for very different hours, from all-day town-centre sites to part-time hall and school kitchens. The right interval comes from hours of use and grease readings.
Across England, including GU27, the responsible person has a legal duty to assess and reduce fire risk, and each certificate and photo report is a record you can keep in your log book.
Haslemere: School kitchens, at schools like Shottermill Infant School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a café or takeaway near Haslemere station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after pictures show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
Managing agents and facilities teams in GU27
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- What state the system is in
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
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, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
What we’re called out for in GU27
A kitchen in GU27 builds up grease in the same places as any other: in long flat runs, at bends and changes of direction, and in the fan housing. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
