- A greasy plenum behind the filters
- Damaged filters letting grease past
- Drips falling from the filters onto equipment
What grease filter exchange can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

About our grease filter exchange in Bradville
Across Bradville, our filter exchange suits restaurants, pubs, cafés, schools, care homes and other kitchens, from a single canopy to several. Visits can be timed around your service, so cooking is not interrupted. The work covers school and hospital kitchens, restaurants and pubs and wall canopies, and people most often call us about filters that come out of the sink still dirty and filters so greasy the air can barely pass.
For a smaller kitchen near Bradville, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
How the job changes from site to site
Baffle filters
A clogged baffle filter restricts airflow. A clean exchange set brings the airflow back.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Lighter kitchens can often go longer between changes. The interval is set to fit.
Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Keep every filter in place during service
There’s no waiting: the canopy is ready as soon as the clean set is fitted. 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.
Signs you need grease filter exchange in Bradville
Kitchens in Bradville, as everywhere, find filter washing slips down the list on busy weeks. It only takes a couple of missed weeks for filters to fill with grease.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Drips falling from the filters onto equipment
- Poor airflow through the filters
- Grease filters clogged with grease
Church and community hall kitchens, near Christ Church or anywhere around Bradville, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
What your quote should include
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Your questions about grease filter exchange in Bradville
Which council inspects kitchens in Bradville?
That’s Milton Keynes council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bradville. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you cover smaller places like Bradville?
Yes. Bradville is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
How much does a filter exchange service cost?
Filters, canopies and how often you need visits all affect the price. Tell us what you have and we will come back with a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
Can you clean our existing filters instead?
We can. Some kitchens prefer their own filters cleaned on a schedule, and others prefer a straight swap. We make sure the canopy is ready for service either way.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle and mesh filters are both covered. The first step is recording what you have and set up the service around them.
How regularly do grease filters need exchanging?
The right interval depends on the kitchen. If filters are dripping or clogging before the next change, it’s too long and we’ll adjust it.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
What affects the quote in Bradville
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
How it works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes less than an hour in most kitchens, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Tell us when your site near Bradville is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- First, we record the size, type and number of filters in each canopy.
- Together we set how often the filters should be changed.
- At each visit, the greasy filters are lifted out.
- We fit clean filters and check they sit snugly in the housing.
- If a filter is damaged or the plenum needs attention, we tell you.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Clear loose items from the work area
