Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle grease filter exchange in Golden Cross
A filter service works alongside TR19® cleaning, not instead of it. Clean filters reduce the grease reaching the ducts, but some grease still passes through as vapour. So the canopy, plenum and ducts still need their full TR19 clean. If you have weak extraction at the canopy and grease building up behind the canopy filters, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Golden Cross starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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, next to our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

What else we do in Golden Cross
How it works
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Golden Cross knowing what to expect.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- We note any filters that are bent, damaged or missing.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
- We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

FAQs for Golden Cross
Do you cover smaller places like Golden Cross?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you work overnight in Golden Cross?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Golden Cross doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you take the used filters away?
Yes. The dirty filters are taken away for cleaning while a clean set goes in.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a dated report with pictures, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
We price it on the number of filters and the visit frequency. Send us details or pictures and we’ll quote quickly.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so the site can carry on as normal.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
We work with both baffle and mesh filters. We check what’s in your canopies first and set up the service around them.
How the job changes from site to site
The plenum
A greasy plenum is a sign filters have been left too long or that the next TR19 clean is due.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters use overlapping metal blades that force the air to change direction. Grease drops out as it does.
Why act early in Golden Cross
Once filters are saturated, more grease gets past them. That makes the next full clean a bigger job and grease readings can rise between cleans. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What affects the quote in Golden Cross
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- A single visit or a regular plan
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The postcode and the type of business
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Grease, kitchens and Golden Cross
It’s Wealden council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Golden Cross. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service covers Golden Cross. 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.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Golden Cross is Amberstone Hospital, about 1.9 miles west. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Horselunges Manor is about 3.1 miles west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

What a clean will not put right
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A canopy that needs a proper clean
