How we handle grease filter exchange in Great Kingshill
Cleaning filters by hand takes staff time and is easy to put off. With a filter exchange, we bring a clean set and take the dirty one away and the canopy is refilled straight away. Common call-outs are for hand-washed filters that still look greasy and grease dripping from the canopy, on school and hospital kitchens, wall canopies and baffle filters.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Why it’s worth doing now in Great Kingshill
Grease dripping from the canopy is a sign the filters cannot hold any more. Left, it ends up on equipment, food areas and staff, which an EHO may well notice. If the system at a site near Great Kingshill fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

What we’re called out for in Great Kingshill
Missing filters are more common than you’d think. A missing filter leaves an open route into the system and on into the ductwork.
Look out for any of the following:
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
- Filter washing that keeps being missed
Where a hall near Church of the Good Shepherd, or anywhere in Great Kingshill, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Your questions about grease filter exchange in Great Kingshill
Do you cover smaller places like Great Kingshill?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Great Kingshill included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you come to Great Kingshill after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Great Kingshill can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
It isn’t. The rest of the system still collects grease at the right interval.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
How the visit works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Great Kingshill before we set off.

When it’s something else
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
- A canopy that does not capture the vapour properly
- Odours from the discharge that filters won’t stop
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on in Great Kingshill
- Baffle filters
- Wall canopies
- School and hospital kitchens
- Island canopies
- Mesh filters
- Restaurants and pubs
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Do not refit a filter that’s bent
- Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
- Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed
- Always run the extract while cooking
We tell you if we spot anything in the canopy that needs attention. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due and we can book that in.
Bent or missing filters let grease straight past. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
What affects the quote in Great Kingshill
You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
