- What state the system is in
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The size of the system
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

About our grease filter exchange in Abingworth
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps, so we check every one at each visit. We point out any that need replacing. If you are dealing with grease left in baffles after washing and smoke and heat lingering under the hood, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Abingworth, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Why deal with it now?
Once filters are saturated, more grease gets past them. The ductwork then loads up faster, and grease may build up faster than the cleaning interval allows. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Look out for drips from the canopy
- Keep every filter in place during service
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
Fresh filters improve airflow at the canopy straight away. Keep the extract running while you cook so the filters do their job.
Damaged filters leave gaps in the defence. Replacing them early protects the plenum and ductwork.
Your questions about grease filter exchange in Abingworth
Do you work at weekends in Abingworth?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Abingworth keeps running as normal. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you get to a site in Abingworth?
Yes, Abingworth is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
How much does a filter exchange service cost?
It depends on the number and type of filters and how often they’re changed. We’ll send you a fixed quote once we know your canopies.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, always. The report is dated and includes photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
Do you handle baffle and mesh filters?
The common types of grease filter: baffle and mesh. Tell us what you have when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will confirm it on site.
Do you clean filters as well as exchanging them?
Yes, that’s an option. We’ll check your filters first because bent or damaged ones may need replacing.
Kitchen extracts in Abingworth
In Abingworth, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Horsham council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Abingworth, about 41 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Thakeham Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Historic houses near Abingworth, such as Parham House about 3.1 miles south-west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Where a hall near The Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Abingworth, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Related advice
What the work involves, part by part
The plenum
Clean filters reduce the grease reaching the plenum, but it’s still cleaned during a full TR19 clean.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Even kitchens with fixed meal times build up grease though normally at a gentler pace.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
