Your questions about grease filter exchange in Hannington
Can you get to a site in Hannington?
Yes. Hannington is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work at weekends in Hannington?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Hannington needn’t be disturbed. Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Do you take the used filters away?
We do. The dirty filters are taken away for cleaning and the clean set stays in the canopy.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Grease filter exchange in Hannington, done properly
Each visit is quick and tidy. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in, and we check they’re seated with no gaps. Anything that needs attention is pointed out. If you have poor airflow through the filters and grease collecting in the filter channels, we can help, from wall canopies, mesh filters and baffle filters onwards.
In a small place like Hannington, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What affects the quote in Hannington
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The condition we find in the survey
- How many systems or sites are involved
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Your last certificate, test record or report
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
When it’s something else
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A canopy too small for the cooking beneath it
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change won’t reach
- Odours from the discharge that filters will not stop
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Hannington before we set off.
- We record the number, size and type of your filters.
- We set the interval with you.
- On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
- A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.
Preparing for the visit

Do you need grease filter exchange in Hannington?
The type of cooking matters. Frying, grilling and chargrilling produce far more grease than steaming or baking, so the right exchange interval varies.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- A greasy plenum behind the filters
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Hannington, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Report a dripping canopy early
- Keep every filter in place during service
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
- Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day and let us know of any changes to opening hours.
If filters are already dripping, they’re overdue. Changing them now reduces the fuel above the cooking, and it’s worth checking the plenum too.
How the job changes from site to site
Mesh filters
Mesh filters use layers of metal mesh to trap grease. In a busy kitchen, mesh soon blocks, so they need changing often.
Canopy filter housings
The trough or channel under the filters fills with grease. We point it out if it needs cleaning.
