Highstreet Green grease filter exchange
Grease filter exchange for Highstreet Green, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Smoke and heat lingering under the hood
How we handle grease filter exchange in Highstreet Green
Think of filter exchange as routine care for the extract. It keeps airflow up and grease down between full cleans, and it saves your staff a greasy job. Full TR19 cleaning still comes at the right interval, with a certificate. If you have a greasy plenum behind the filters and bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly, we can help, from mesh filters, baffle filters and wall canopies onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Highstreet Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Why act early in Highstreet Green
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. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Highstreet Green is calmer for everyone.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes less than an hour in most kitchens. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Highstreet Green.
- We count and measure the filters in every canopy.
- We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
- At each visit, the greasy filters are lifted out.
- We fit clean filters and check they sit snugly in the housing.
- If a filter is damaged or the plenum needs attention, we tell you.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

What affects the quote in Highstreet Green
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- What state the system is in
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The site address and the type of premises
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Report a dripping canopy early
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed
Your next visit is scheduled before we leave. If the kitchen gets busier, the interval can be shortened to keep up.
Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. Setting both up on a schedule keeps everything on track.

Different parts, different methods
Baffle filters
A clogged baffle filter restricts airflow. A clean exchange set brings the airflow back.
Canopy filter housings
The trough or channel under the filters fills with grease. We point it out if it needs cleaning.
