About our grease filter exchange in Aaron's Hill
Cleaning filters by hand takes staff time and is easy to put off. An exchange service means clean filters arrive and greasy ones leave and the canopy is refilled right away. The work covers mesh filters, restaurants and pubs and school and hospital kitchens, and the jobs we see most are grease collecting in the filter channels and hand-washed filters that still look greasy.
For a smaller kitchen near Aaron's Hill, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
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.

Aaron's Hill: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Aaron's Hill?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Aaron's Hill is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Aaron's Hill?
It’s Surrey Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Aaron's Hill. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Which records should we keep?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
How often should grease filters be changed?
The right interval depends on the kitchen. If filters are dripping or clogging before the next change, it’s too long and we will adjust it.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Does a filter exchange disrupt service?
An exchange doesn’t take long, and can be booked outside service times. The clean set goes in as soon as the dirty one comes out.
Leave it or put it right?
Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Left, it ends up on equipment, food areas and staff and that is the kind of thing inspectors look for. It’s better to plan the work at a site near Aaron's Hill than wait for a failure.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

When to call us in Aaron's Hill
Filters get bent and damaged with handling. Damaged filters don’t sit flush, leaving gaps for grease to slip through.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Blocked baffle filters
- Damaged filters letting grease past
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Staff short of time to wash filters
Commuter trade near Godalming station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.
What your quote should include
- Whether a survey comes first
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether they recommend a next date

Advice
What affects the quote in Aaron's Hill
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
- Parking and loading at the site
- Any permits to work or inductions
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report a dripping canopy early
- Make sure no filter is left out
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
If the plenum behind the filters looks greasy, we say so. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due and we can book that in.
Damaged filters leave gaps in the defence. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
