Managing agents and facilities teams in Manor Park
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.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Manor Park
A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and record grease readings at set points. If you have parts of the system left out of past cleans and missing TR19 certificates or history, we can help, from post-clean checks, insurer audits and wet film thickness tests onwards.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Manor Park, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Manor Park?
Grease builds up as cooking vapour cools inside the extract. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Missing access panels found on survey
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Sir John Heron Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed

What else we do in Manor Park
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. In Manor Park, as across London, we normally work overnight or at weekends and hand the site back ready to open.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
How to get a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos 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 typically come back within one working day.

TR19 inspection around Manor Park
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 25 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 16 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Manor Park. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Night work suits London kitchens, and roads and loading bays tend to be quieter too. In Manor Park, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Newham council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Manor Park is Barking Community Hospital, about 2 miles south-east. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Mary's Church or elsewhere in Manor Park, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

How we price TR19 inspection
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The scale of the work
- The number of sites or systems
- The times the site is available
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.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

Restaurants, pubs and hotels
BESA’s minimum for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day is a clean every 3 months, with testing showing whether more is needed.

Common questions in Manor Park
Can you work in Manor Park outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Manor Park needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Manor Park?
Fire safety enforcement in Manor Park is handled by London Fire Brigade. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
How often should grease be tested?
Enough to be sure grease stays within the TR19® Grease figures between cleans. If readings rise, the interval should shorten.
How much time does an inspection need?
An inspection takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Large or multiple systems take longer, so give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll plan it.
Will you produce a report for our insurer?
Yes. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and inspection, and our audit gives a clear record of the system’s condition, with recommendations where something needs doing.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Manor Park?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote and we will normally reply within one working day.
What happens on a pre-clean survey?
It’s a look at the whole extract before it’s cleaned, with readings and photos. The survey can be done from pictures and details or on site, whichever suits the system.
Honest limits
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Access surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Post-clean checks
- Insurer audits
- Deposit thickness tests
- Pre-clean surveys
Why deal with it now?
Sites in Manor Park that have never measured grease can’t tell whether their cleaning interval suits the kitchen. Testing gives you the evidence to set it properly. London sites work long hours, and the longer a job is left, the bigger it gets.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What you get with us
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
- A written report with pictures after each visit
- Trading since 2009
