Kitchen extracts in Goring-by-Sea
Goring-by-Sea is within about 1 mile of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. Food Standards Agency records include about 17 bars, pubs and nightclubs within about 1.5 miles of central Goring-by-Sea. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. It’s Worthing council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Goring-by-Sea. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
A kitchen near Goring-By-Sea station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; The Acre is the nearest hospital to Goring-by-Sea, about 1.8 miles east.

About our grease filter exchange in Goring-by-Sea
We run grease filter exchange for all kinds of kitchens in Goring-by-Sea, whether there’s one canopy or many. We can come before or after service so nobody has to stop cooking. The work covers restaurants and pubs, island canopies and baffle filters, and the jobs we see most are damaged filters letting grease past and hand-washed filters that still look greasy.
In a smaller place like Goring-by-Sea, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

FAQs for Goring-by-Sea
Which fire authority looks after Goring-by-Sea?
West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Goring-by-Sea. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Which environmental health team covers Goring-by-Sea?
That is Worthing council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Goring-by-Sea. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can you give a price for filter changes?
It depends on the number and type of filters and how often they’re changed. We will give you a fixed quote, normally within one working day.
Do you cover Goring-by-Sea?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes Goring-by-Sea.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle and mesh filters are both covered. We check what’s in your canopies first and plan the exchange around them.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Watch for grease drips between visits
- Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
If the plenum behind the filters looks greasy, we say so. That might mean bringing a TR19® clean forward, and we can arrange it.
Saturated filters let more grease through. Getting onto a regular exchange now keeps grease out of the plenum and ductwork between full cleans.
What affects the cost of grease filter exchange
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- A single visit or a regular plan
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- 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
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Want a quote for grease filter exchange? Please call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before anything is booked.
When something else is needed
Grease filter exchange can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- A noisy or failed extract fan
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- An extract that was undersized from the start
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What the work covers
- Baffle filters
- School and hospital kitchens
- Wall canopies
- Island canopies
- Restaurants and pubs
- Mesh filters
What staff can safely do
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.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Do you need grease filter exchange in Goring-by-Sea?
Washing filters by hand does not always get them clean. Grease hides in the folds of a baffle or the layers of a mesh, and a quick rinse leaves it there.
Clients normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- A canopy that drips grease
- Staff short of time to wash filters
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
School kitchens, at schools like Goring-By-Sea CofE (Aided) Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed
- Proof of insurance
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- What paperwork you get at the end
Managing agents and facilities teams in Goring-by-Sea
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 can quote for the whole system.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

The process
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. Visits to a place like Goring-by-Sea are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We start by noting how many filters you have and what type they are.
- Together we set how often the filters should be changed.
- Each visit starts with the used filters being removed.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- We flag any damaged filters or anything wrong with the canopy.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
