Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Cramhurst

Each visit is quick and tidy. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in and make sure there are no gaps between them. Anything that needs attention is pointed out. Common call-outs are for grease building up behind the canopy filters and a canopy that drips grease, across restaurants and pubs, baffle filters and school and hospital kitchens.

For a kitchen in or near Cramhurst, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What happens if it’s left?

For any kitchen in Cramhurst, filters cannot stand in for a full TR19 clean. But clean filters do help the system between cleans, and that shows when the next clean comes round. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Cramhurst 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 we start.

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes less than an hour in most kitchens. In a small place like Cramhurst, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.

  1. We count and measure the filters in every canopy.
  2. We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
  3. At every visit, the greasy filters are lifted out.
  4. Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
  5. We flag any damaged filters or anything wrong with the canopy.

Before we arrive

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Getting a quote

Some systems can be priced from pictures; 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.

Cramhurst kitchens: local notes

The Food Standards Agency lists about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Cramhurst. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Kitchens in Cramhurst get their food hygiene inspections from Waverley council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Cramhurst sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.

A hospital like Milford Hospital, about 1.3 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Loseley Park is about 4.4 miles north-east), access may need planning.

How we price grease filter exchange

We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Where the site is and how we reach it

The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.

What your team can do, and what needs us

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Signs you need grease filter exchange in Cramhurst

What a kitchen cooks affects how fast filters clog. Frying, grilling and chargrilling produce far more grease than steaming or baking, so the right exchange interval varies.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • Bent or damaged filters that do not sit properly
  • A canopy that drips grease
  • Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
  • A canopy running with filters missing

Church and community hall kitchens, near St John the Evangelist's Church or anywhere around Cramhurst, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Cramhurst questions

Can the work in Cramhurst be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Cramhurst doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Cramhurst?

Cramhurst is in the area of 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 work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Can damaged filters stay in the canopy?

A bent filter leaves a gap for grease. We point them out on the visit so they can be replaced.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.

What types of premises do you cover?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

What do you do with what you remove?

It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.

Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?

No, the two work together. A TR19® clean deals with the whole system, with a certificate and photo report.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Cramhurst

For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

Different parts, different methods

Mesh filters

Layers of mesh catch grease droplets. In a busy kitchen, mesh soon blocks, so they need changing often.

Baffle filters

Baffle filters use overlapping metal blades that force the air to change direction. Grease drops out as it does.
