Grease filter exchange in Goose Green

Grease filters are the first line of defence in a kitchen extract. Their job is to stop grease getting further into the system, but only while they’re reasonably clean. With grease filter exchange, clean filters replace greasy ones at regular intervals. If you have drips falling from the filters onto equipment and hand-washed filters that still look greasy, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Goose Green, 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.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.

When your team notices a problem 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.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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

Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Kitchen extracts in Goose Green

It’s Horsham council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Goose Green. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. About 40 miles out from central London, Goose Green is part of the South East area we work across.

What we do, step by step

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 first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes less than an hour in most kitchens. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Goose Green.

  1. We look at the canopies and the condition of the filters.
  2. We note any filters that are bent, damaged or missing.
  3. Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
  4. The filters are checked for fit before we go.
  5. Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.

How to prepare

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Goose Green

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:

  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • What state the system is in
  • The size of the system
  • Parking and loading at the site

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Asking for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Do you need grease filter exchange in Goose Green?

Hand-washed filters often come back still greasy. Grease lodges deep in baffles and mesh, and a quick rinse leaves it there.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Filters that leave gaps in the canopy
  • A canopy running with filters missing
  • Grease dripping from the canopy
  • Grease collecting in the filter channels

Where a hall near The Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Goose Green, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Questions to ask before booking

Goose Green: your questions answered

Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Goose Green?

West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Goose Green. 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.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Goose Green?

Kitchens in Goose Green are inspected by Horsham council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.

How often should grease filters be changed?

That depends on the cooking. Kitchens that fry and grill all day need changes more often than kitchens that cook less. We set a schedule that suits your kitchen.

How long does the visit take?

That depends on the amount of work, but for a typical site it takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. We will confirm it with the quote.

Which accreditations do you hold?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

How far ahead should we book?

Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We normally quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. We always survey first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.

What a clean won’t put right

We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:

  • A canopy that needs a proper clean
  • Grease already built up in the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
  • A canopy that doesn’t capture the vapour properly

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Where we work

  • Wall canopies
  • Island canopies
  • Baffle filters
  • Mesh filters
  • Restaurants and pubs
  • School and hospital kitchens

Between visits

So the system stays in good health:

  • Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
  • Keep every filter in place during service
  • Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use

The canopy looks cleaner and the air moves better from the moment they’re fitted. Always run the extract during cooking so they catch grease as intended.

Bent or missing filters let grease straight past. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
