Grease filter exchange in Erriottwood, Kent

- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy

What happens if it’s left?
Changing filters on schedule costs far less disruption than a blocked extract. It’s one of the simplest parts of looking after the system, and one of the easiest to let slip. Planning a trip to Erriottwood ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

Grease filter exchange in Erriottwood, done properly
In Erriottwood, our filter exchange runs on a schedule set by how much the kitchen cooks. Busy kitchens need changes more often, lighter ones less. The interval is agreed before the first visit. If you are dealing with staff short of time to wash filters and poor airflow through the filters, we can help, from restaurants and pubs, baffle filters and island canopies onwards.
Somewhere as small as Erriottwood, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Erriottwood questions
Do you work overnight in Erriottwood?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Erriottwood doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Erriottwood during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Around Erriottwood, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Where do the greasy filters go?
They leave with us. That’s the point of an exchange: clean filters in, dirty ones out and nothing greasy left on site.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Is Erriottwood in your area?
Yes. Our technicians work in Erriottwood, within the South East and London area we cover.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep every filter in place during service
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
The next exchange is already in the diary. If cooking increases, we can change filters more often to match.
A kitchen that’s getting busier needs its filters changed more often. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up in the ducts.
Grease filter exchange around Erriottwood
Kent Fire and Rescue Service covers Erriottwood. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Erriottwood, about 40 miles from central London, is within our usual area. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site.
Belmont House and Gardens, about 3.4 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses near Erriottwood; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Erriottwood, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Lynsted and Norton Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

How the job changes from site to site
Canopy filter housings
We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit, because gaps let grease through.
Mesh filters
Mesh filters are still found in many canopies. We exchange them on the same basis as baffles.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- A fan that’s failing or too weak for the system
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change won’t reach
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Mesh filters
- School and hospital kitchens
- Baffle filters
- Restaurants and pubs
- Wall canopies
- Island canopies
What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes less than an hour in most kitchens. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Erriottwood and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
