Horndon on the Hill grease filter exchange

Grease filter exchange in Horndon on the Hill: the local picture

At about 3 miles from the coast, Horndon on the Hill is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 10 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 11 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Horndon on the Hill. Where they cook under a canopy, the grease filters are the first line of defence and clog quickly. Kitchens in Horndon on the Hill get their food hygiene inspections from Thurrock council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

Term dates shape school work: for a school like Horndon-On-the-Hill CofE Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Horndon on the Hill, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
