Services
British Cleaning Solutions delivers TR19®-compliant kitchen duct cleaning for commercial kitchens across the UK, ensuring safe, efficient, and fully compliant extraction systems.
We partner with businesses of all sizes nationwide to deliver specialised cleaning solutions tailored to their unique requirements.
Kitchen Duct Cleaning
Our kitchen duct cleaning service thoroughly removes grease, carbon, and deposits from all internal duct surfaces within your kitchen extraction system, ensuring safe and efficient airflow throughout the kitchen environment. By cleaning the full duct run from canopy connection points through to the fan and discharge, we significantly reduce fire risks, maintain proper ventilation performance, and support a safe working kitchen.
All works are delivered in accordance with BESA’s TR19® Grease standard, meeting both fire safety and insurance requirements. Following completion, we provide detailed reports with photographic evidence and a compliance certificate, ensuring your kitchen remains safe, fully compliant, and ready for inspections and audits at any time.
Kitchen extract systems are constantly exposed to grease, smoke, heat, and airborne cooking contaminants during daily operation. Over time, grease deposits accumulate throughout the canopy, ductwork, filters, fans, and extraction system, creating serious hygiene, airflow, and fire safety risks within commercial kitchen environments.
If grease buildup is not professionally removed, it can lead to:
● Increased fire risks within the extract system
● Reduced airflow and extraction performance
● Excess heat and smoke within kitchen areas
● Unpleasant odours and poor ventilation
● Increased strain on extract equipment
● Hygiene and compliance concerns
● Potential insurance and fire safety issues
Professional kitchen extract cleaning helps maintain safe, efficient, and compliant extraction systems throughout commercial kitchens, restaurants, hospitality venues, and food production environments.
read about
Kitchen duct cleaning focuses on fire safety, compliance, and maintaining proper airflow. Grease build-up inside kitchen extract ductwork presents one of the highest fire risks in commercial kitchens, so our process is designed to fully remove deposits and meet TR19® Grease standards.
01
We inspect the kitchen duct system from canopy connection points through to the fan and discharge, confirming existing access and identifying where additional hatches may be required for full cleaning and compliance.
02
Cooking equipment, surfaces, and surrounding areas are sheeted and protected to prevent grease, residue, or cleaning agents from affecting the kitchen environment.
03
Grease deposits are removed using mechanical scraping, rotary brushing, wet vacuuming, and specialist degreasing agents. The full duct run is cleaned, including key connection points and internal duct surfaces.
04
Where duct routes are tight or inaccessible, we use specialist access tools or install new compliant hatches to ensure the entire system is cleaned to standard.
05
A full TR19® Grease report is issued, including before-and-after photos, grease thickness measurements, findings, and certification to confirm compliance for insurance and audit requirements.

Preventing
Commercial kitchen extract systems are continuously exposed to grease, smoke, heat, and airborne cooking contaminants during daily operation. Over time, grease deposits can accumulate throughout the ductwork system, restricting airflow, reducing extraction efficiency, and increasing fire risks within the kitchen environment.
Without regular professional cleaning, this can lead to:
● Excess grease buildup throughout the extract system
● Reduced airflow and extraction performance
● Increased fire risks within ductwork
● Excess heat and smoke within kitchen areas
● Unpleasant odours and poor ventilation
Our kitchen duct cleaning service removes grease and contamination from the internal extract system, helping maintain safe, hygienic, and efficient kitchen extraction performance.
For restaurants, hotels, schools, healthcare facilities, and hospitality venues, maintaining clean kitchen extract ductwork is essential for fire safety, compliance, and day-to-day kitchen operations.
