Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Eton Wick
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Gaps in the filter bank are a direct route into the plenum and every filter is checked when we swap them. We point out any that need replacing. If you have a canopy running with filters missing and grease dripping from the canopy, we can help, from baffle filters, island canopies and school and hospital kitchens onwards.
In a small place like Eton Wick, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
- Make sure no filter is left out
- Look out for drips from the canopy
Between visits, check that every filter is still in place. A missing filter leaves a gap for grease, so let us know if one goes missing or gets damaged.
Filter exchange and TR19 cleaning work best together. A maintenance plan that covers both means neither slips.
Do you need grease filter exchange in Eton Wick?
Every fry, grill and sauté sends grease-laden vapour upwards. The filters catch much of it so they gradually clog and airflow falls away.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- Damaged filters letting grease past
- Poor airflow through the filters
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Eton Wick CofE First School or anywhere near Eton Wick, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Eton Wick
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
How we price grease filter exchange
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- The scale of the work
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any previous report or certificate
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Somewhere as small as Eton Wick, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- 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.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- Anything we notice, such as bent filters or a dirty plenum, is pointed out.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Getting a quote
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line 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. We normally come back within one working day.
Related advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What the work involves, part by part
Canopy filter housings
The trough or channel under the filters fills with grease. If it needs attention, we’ll tell you.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Lighter kitchens can often go longer between changes. The interval is set to fit.
Your questions about grease filter exchange in Eton Wick
Can you get to a site in Eton Wick?
Yes, Eton Wick is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you come to Eton Wick after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Eton Wick can fit around your hours. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What happens to the dirty filters?
Yes. Used filters go with us to be cleaned and the clean set stays in the canopy.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
