Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Grease filter exchange in Bowlhead Green
We set up grease filter exchange for kitchens in Bowlhead Green on a schedule that suits their cooking. The heavier the cooking, the more often filters need changing, lighter ones less. The interval is agreed before the first visit. The work covers school and hospital kitchens, baffle filters and restaurants and pubs, and common reasons people get in touch are a greasy plenum behind the filters and drips falling from the filters onto equipment.
For a kitchen in or near Bowlhead Green, 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 to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What else we do in Bowlhead Green
Bowlhead Green: your questions answered
Which fire authority looks after Bowlhead Green?
Fire safety enforcement in Bowlhead Green is handled by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you cover smaller places like Bowlhead Green?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.
How long will you be on site?
It depends on the size of the system, but for many sites it takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. We will confirm it with the quote.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What is 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 isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
It depends on the number and type of filters and how often they’re changed. We’ll give you a fixed quote, normally within one working day.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A noisy or failed extract fan
- Grease behind the filters that a swap cannot remove
- A canopy that does not capture the vapour properly
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- Mesh filters
- Restaurants and pubs
- Island canopies
- Baffle filters
- Wall canopies
- School and hospital kitchens
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Don’t refit a filter that is bent
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
Once the clean filters are in, the kitchen can cook straight away. We take the greasy filters with us to be cleaned.
Dripping filters are a clear sign they’re full. A clean set straight away cuts the grease in the canopy and the plenum may need a clean as well.
Why deal with it now?
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. Planning a trip to Bowlhead Green ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes well under an hour for most canopies. Somewhere like Bowlhead Green, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We look at the canopies and the condition of the filters.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
