Grease Filter Exchange in Hatton
Grease filter exchange in Hatton from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.

Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Hatton
Whether your canopy has baffle or mesh filters, they load up with grease. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the fan has to work harder. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. The work covers baffle filters, island canopies and mesh filters, and people most often call us about a canopy running with filters missing and poor airflow through the filters.
London kitchens are often tucked into basements or the back of a building, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. For a kitchen in Hatton, that usually means a longer system to clean and more access panels to plan around.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Common questions in Hatton
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Hatton?
That’s London Fire Brigade. 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.
What do you need to know about parking in Hatton?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
Damaged filters don’t seat properly and let grease through. We flag any we find and explain what’s needed.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The report recommends when the next visit should be, based on what we found and how the system is used.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Do you cover Hatton?
Yes. We work in Hatton and the rest of Greater London, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Is there a cleaning option for the filters we have?
Yes, that is an option. The first step is looking at the filters you have, as damaged ones may be better replaced.
What the work involves, part by part
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are robust and widely used in commercial canopies. They don’t clean themselves as the collected grease builds up between the blades.
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
High-output kitchens clog filters quickly. They often need the shortest exchange interval.
Signs you need grease filter exchange in Hatton
Wherever you are, Hatton included, filter washing is the job that gets skipped when the kitchen is busy. It only takes a couple of missed weeks for a filter bank to clog.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- Poor airflow through the filters
Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of the Good Shepherd or anywhere around Hatton, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Why deal with it now?
In Hatton, as everywhere, a filter service isn’t a substitute for TR19 cleaning. They do help keep the system in better shape between cleans, and that shows when the next clean comes round. In Hatton, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.
Why us?
- A written report with pictures after each visit
- Full insurance on every job
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001
- Trading since 2009

What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Hatton.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- An exchange schedule is agreed to suit your cooking.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
Advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Grease filter exchange in Hatton: the local picture
Food Standards Agency records list about 113 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 47 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hatton. Clogged filters slow the airflow, and busy kitchens like these clog them fast. Fire safety in Hatton falls to London Fire Brigade. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. It’s Hounslow council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hatton. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
