Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Hampton Wick
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps and every filter is checked when we swap them. Damaged filters are flagged so they can be replaced. If you have weak extraction at the canopy and grease dripping from the canopy, we can help, from baffle filters, school and hospital kitchens and mesh filters onwards.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Hampton Wick, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What a clean won’t put right
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Grease deep in the extract system
- Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters
- Grease behind the filters that a swap can’t remove
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What grease filter exchange looks like in Hampton Wick
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 50 pubs and bars and about 6 hotels and guest houses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hampton Wick. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. In Hampton Wick, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Kingston-Upon-Thames council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. London Fire Brigade covers Hampton Wick. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Church and community hall kitchens, near All Saints Church or anywhere around Hampton Wick, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Bursars and site managers at schools such as St John the Baptist Church of England Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What happens if it’s left?
Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Drips land on surfaces and equipment below and that’s the kind of thing inspectors look for. A busy site in Hampton Wick builds up dirt and wear quickly, so putting it off makes the eventual job larger.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

- We note any filters that are bent, damaged or missing.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.

Advice
Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Hampton Wick
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How big the system is
- Travel, parking and unloading
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
