Clean-looking filters don’t mean a clean plenum. So we measure behind the filters, not just in front.
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
Inspections are done when the kitchen is closed or quiet so the kitchen keeps cooking.
TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Rose Hill
If you’ve taken over a kitchen in Rose Hill and don’t know when the extract was last cleaned, an inspection is the place to start. You get readings, photos and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. If you have checking the result of a recent clean and sites with gaps in their extract records, we can help, from deposit thickness tests, access surveys and post-clean checks onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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 can diagnose it and quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
After post-clean verification, file the results with the cleaning certificate. Together they show the system was cleaned and checked.
Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.
Leave it or put it right?
If a kitchen in Rose Hill has been cleaned on the same calendar for years, there’s no way to know if that interval is right without measuring. Measured readings let a competent person set the interval. With notice, the visit to Rose Hill can be fitted around your bookings and events.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Rose Hill kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 9 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 5 hotels and B&Bs across Rose Hill and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Fire safety in Rose Hill falls to Royal Berkshire 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. Kitchens in Rose Hill get their food hygiene inspections from Buckinghamshire council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Cliveden is about 1 mile north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Rose Hill, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Bursars and site managers at schools such as St Peter's Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Rose Hill questions
Can the work in Rose Hill be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Rose Hill needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you cover smaller places like Rose Hill?
Yes, Rose Hill is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How long does grease testing take?
Testing takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. Sites with several canopies take longer, and you can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form to book it in.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Do we have to follow TR19 by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification and the industry benchmark, not legislation. The law is the Fire Safety Order 2005, under which the responsible person must manage fire risk, and TR19® is what insurers and fire officers look to.
What is post-clean verification?
A post-clean check records grease readings and photos after the work, whoever did the clean.
