Work in a small place like Roundbush Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Fixed quotes for canopy cleaning in Roundbush Green
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The condition of the system
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Travel, parking and unloading
- A single visit or a regular plan
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.
Grease, kitchens and Roundbush Green
In Roundbush Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Uttlesford council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. The fire and rescue service for Roundbush Green is Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Parish Church of St Mary or anywhere around Roundbush Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Roundbush Green (Barrington Hall is about 3.1 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Rodings Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Part by part
Island canopies
The underside of an island canopy is in full view so a clean, even finish matters. We degrease it thoroughly and photograph the result.
School and staff canteen kitchens
Canteens and school kitchens tend to run to a timetable, which makes a canopy clean easy to schedule. Holidays and weekends work well.
When it’s something else
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Electrical faults in the canopy
- A hood that doesn’t cover the cooking line
- Poor airflow from a fan that needs repair
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Baffle filters
- Canopy light fittings
- Wall canopies
- Grease gutters
- Plenum chambers
- Island canopies
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What happens on the day
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. In a small place like Roundbush Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
- Heavy deposits come off by hand, then the surfaces are degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after pictures and a next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Other services in Roundbush Green
Roundbush Green: your questions answered
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Roundbush Green in the summer holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Roundbush Green. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Roundbush Green?
Roundbush Green is in the area of Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
How long will it take to clean the canopy?
Size and build-up decide it. As a guide, it takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits.
Do we need to close the kitchen for a canopy clean?
Out-of-hours cleans are how we work, at night, early in the morning or at weekends. We leave it clean and ready for the next service.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Clean the baffle filters often
- Report new drips or smells from the canopy
- Keep every filter in place while cooking
- Use non-abrasive cloths on the hood
A before and after photo report follows the clean. The report lists what was cleaned and any part we couldn’t get to, so the record is honest and complete.
Do not let canopy gutters fill to the brim. Most canopy drips start with a full trough, so make emptying them part of the closing routine.
