Grease filter exchange in Heyshott Green, done properly

Each visit is quick and tidy. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in and make sure there are no gaps between them. If something looks wrong, we tell you. The work covers baffle filters, island canopies and mesh filters, and people most often call us about a greasy plenum behind the filters and damaged filters letting grease past.

In a village or hamlet like Heyshott Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Why it’s worth doing now in Heyshott Green

Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Left, it ends up on equipment, food areas and staff, which an EHO may well notice. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Heyshott Green is calmer for everyone.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Heyshott Green

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.

Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Heyshott Green

You will get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:

  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • How big the system is
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The condition we find in the survey

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

Aftercare tips

Once we have finished, these simple steps help:

  • Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
  • Never cook with the extract switched off
  • Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
  • Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed

Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day and tell us if service times change.

Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner between full cleans.

Heyshott Green kitchens: local notes

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 4 pubs, bars and clubs in Heyshott Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. The fire and rescue service for Heyshott Green is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. 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. Environmental health officers from Chichester council inspect food businesses in Heyshott Green. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Where a hall near The Parish Church of St James, or anywhere in Heyshott Green, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. For schools such as Midhurst Rother College, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

When it’s something else

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what grease filter exchange will not do:

  • A fan that is failing or too weak for the system
  • A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
  • Grease deep in the extract system

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Baffle filters
  • School and hospital kitchens
  • Restaurants and pubs
  • Wall canopies
  • Mesh filters
  • Island canopies

What we do, step by step

We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes well under an hour for most canopies. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Heyshott Green run smoothly.

  1. We look at the canopies and the condition of the filters.
  2. Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
  3. Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
  4. The filters are checked for fit before we go.
  5. We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.

How to prepare

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Advice

What we are called out for in Heyshott Green

Sometimes a filter is taken out and never put back. Every gap in the filter bank lets grease straight into the plenum and on into the ductwork.

The symptoms we are asked about most include:

  • Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
  • Staff short of time to wash filters
  • Smoke and heat lingering under the hood
  • Grease dripping from the canopy

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Cowdray House is about 1.9 miles north), access may need planning.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • Whether VAT is included

Questions to ask before you book

Questions from Heyshott Green

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Heyshott Green?

In Heyshott Green, it’s Chichester council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.

Can you come to Heyshott Green after we close?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Heyshott Green needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Who is the responsible person?

The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

How long does the visit take?

It depends on the size of the system, but for many sites it takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

What if some of our filters are damaged?

Each filter is looked at when we exchange. We tell you about any that are damaged, because gaps let grease into the plenum.

What does TR19 mean?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
