FAQs for Beckley
Do you work at weekends in Beckley?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Beckley keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Beckley?
That’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can you clean our existing filters instead?
Yes, filter cleaning is available. We’ll check your filters first, as damaged ones may be better replaced.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Can damaged filters stay in the canopy?
We check every filter at each visit. Any that are bent or damaged are flagged, because gaps let grease into the plenum.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle and mesh filters are both covered. We check what’s in your canopies first and plan the exchange around them.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
About our grease filter exchange in Beckley
A clean set of filters is a simple, regular dose of prevention. Between full cleans, it keeps the airflow healthy, and it saves your staff a greasy job. The full TR19 clean then gives the system its clean bill of health. If you’re dealing with a greasy plenum behind the filters and bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly, we can put it right.
In a small place like Beckley, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

The process
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes less than an hour in most kitchens. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Beckley knowing what to expect.
- We record the number, size and type of your filters.
- We set the interval with you.
- On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
- A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.
How to prepare
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about parking and loading

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Related advice
Do you need grease filter exchange in Beckley?
Washing filters by hand does not always get them clean. Grease lodges deep in baffles and mesh, and a quick rinse leaves it there.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- A canopy running with filters missing
- Staff short of time to wash filters
Holywell Manor, about 3.9 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Beckley; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

What the work involves, part by part
School, care home and staff kitchens
Kitchens that cook for set mealtimes still load their filters, though often more slowly.
Canopy filter housings
The trough or channel under the filters fills with grease. If it needs attention, we’ll tell you.
What a clean won’t put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Odours from the discharge that filters won’t stop
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- An extract that was undersized from the start
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on in Beckley
- Mesh filters
- Restaurants and pubs

Aftercare tips
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Look out for drips from the canopy
- Make sure no filter is left out
- Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
There’s no waiting: the canopy is ready as soon as the clean set is fitted. The dirty set leaves with us for cleaning.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. Getting onto a regular exchange now keeps grease out of the plenum and ductwork until the next TR19 clean.
Beckley kitchens: local notes
Fire safety in Beckley falls to 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. Kitchens in Beckley get their food hygiene inspections from South Oxfordshire 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.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Beckley Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Beckley is Churchill Hospital, about 2.7 miles south-west.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
