How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes less than an hour in most kitchens.

- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
- Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
- 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.

- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Advice
About our grease filter exchange in Brent Pelham
We run grease filter exchange for all kinds of kitchens in Brent Pelham, whether there’s one canopy or many. Visits can be timed around your service so nobody has to stop cooking. The work covers restaurants and pubs, baffle filters and mesh filters, and people most often call us about a canopy running with filters missing and filters left unwashed on busy weeks.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Looking after it afterwards
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
- Look out for drips from the canopy
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
We tell you if we spot anything in the canopy that needs attention. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due, and we can arrange it.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner between full cleans.
Questions from Brent Pelham
Is Brent Pelham within the area you cover?
Yes, Brent Pelham is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Brent Pelham?
Hertfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Brent Pelham. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
Is filter exchange enough instead of a full extract clean?
No. Filters do not catch everything, so grease still reaches the ductwork and the whole system still needs its TR19 clean.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Anything that proves the system is maintained: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. A single log for each site works best.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What grease filter exchange cannot fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change will not reach
- Odours from the discharge that filters won’t stop
- A noisy or failed extract fan
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer.

What the work involves, part by part
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
In a busy kitchen, filter washing is easy to skip. An exchange service takes it off the rota.
Baffle filters
When baffles fill with grease, less air gets through. Swapping them for a clean set restores it.
Leave it or put it right?
When filters block, extraction suffers. Heat and fumes hang in the kitchen while the fan strains. Keeping filters clean keeps the extract working properly. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Brent Pelham is calmer for everyone.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hertfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
