Kitchen extracts in Fifield
In Fifield, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from West Oxfordshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Fifield is covered by Oxfordshire 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.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Fifield is Moore Cottage Hospital, about 4.6 miles west.

Canopy cleaning in Fifield, done properly
The canopy is the part of the extract everyone in the kitchen sees. Being first in line, it collects grease on the inside surfaces, along the seams and in the troughs. Our canopy clean covers the shell inside and out, plus the plenum and the filter housing. Typical jobs include grease dripping from the canopy edge and overflowing grease troughs and gutters, across island canopies, baffle filters and canopy light fittings.
For a kitchen in or near Fifield, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Different parts, different methods
Grease troughs and gutters
Where a trough drains into a grease cup, that is emptied and cleaned too, and we will show staff where it is.
Pub and hotel kitchens
Pub and hotel kitchens can cook from breakfast to late evening. Long hours mean the canopy collects grease fast, so it may need cleaning between full TR19 cleans.
Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Faulty canopy lights or wiring (a job for an electrician)
- Bent or broken filters
- A fan that can’t pull enough air because it’s worn out
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

Fifield: your questions answered
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Fifield?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Fifield. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you get to a site in Fifield?
Yes. Fifield is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long is a canopy clean?
Allow a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Your quote will give a time.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.

What we are called out for in Fifield
Any canopy in Fifield that is used for cooking will gather grease in the end. It’s fuel, sitting directly over the burners, so a flare-up near a greasy hood can quickly become a fire.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Grease filters blocking between washes
- Grease channels that no longer drain
- Smoke hanging around the canopy during service
- Fat running down the front of the hood
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St John the Baptist, or anywhere in Fifield, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

How the visit works
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a few hours for most canopies. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Fifield knowing what to expect.
- We look at the canopy first, from pictures or on a visit.
- The range is turned off and allowed to cool before we cover it.
- Filters come out and the plenum behind them is scraped and degreased.
- The canopy is cleaned inside and out, including troughs and seams.
- Filters go back, the area is cleaned down and pictures are taken.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Advice
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Do not scrape the canopy with metal tools
- Keep the fan on through service
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Keep every filter in place while cooking
The kitchen is handed back clean, with the sheeting gone and the waste removed. Filters are back in place and seated properly, and the kitchen is ready to cook.
The best thing a kitchen can do for its canopy is keep the filters clean. Keep them on a regular cleaning or exchange cycle, and never cook with one missing. The plenum behind them stays cleaner.
What affects the cost of canopy cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.
