Grease filter exchange in Hyde Park Estate

Washing filters in the kitchen sink is messy and easily missed on a busy week. With a filter exchange, we bring a clean set and take the dirty one away and the canopy is refilled right away. The work covers mesh filters, restaurants and pubs and school and hospital kitchens, and people most often call us about filter washing that keeps being missed and filters that leave gaps in the canopy.

Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. In Hyde Park Estate, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

How we price grease filter exchange

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • How big the system is
  • The condition of the system
  • Whether several sites go on one quote

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.

What we need to know

What to send for a quote:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

What grease filter exchange looks like in Hyde Park Estate

The FSA’s data shows about 162 pubs, bars and clubs and about 247 hotels and guest houses registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hyde Park Estate. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. In Hyde Park Estate, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Westminster council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Hyde Park Estate sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Hampden Gurney CofE Primary School or anywhere near Hyde Park Estate, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A kitchen near London Paddington station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Fortius Clinic (about 0.7 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

What grease filter exchange can’t fix

Not every problem is solved by grease filter exchange, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It doesn’t solve:

  • Grease behind the filters that a swap cannot remove
  • An extract that was undersized from the start
  • A fan that is failing or too weak for the system

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on in Hyde Park Estate

  • Baffle filters
  • Mesh filters

  • Restaurants and pubs
  • School and hospital kitchens

How the job changes from site to site

Canopy filter housings

The filter housing holds each filter at an angle in the canopy. If it’s bent or greasy, filters will not seat properly.

Busy restaurant and pub kitchens

The more a kitchen cooks, the more grease the filters see. Changing them on time protects the ducts behind.

What happens if it’s left?

Filters full of grease are fuel sitting right above the cooking. Flames from the range can be drawn up into the canopy, and from there into the duct. Keeping filters clean takes some of that fuel away. A booked night’s work in Hyde Park Estate costs you no trading time; an unplanned closure does.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

How it works

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes less than an hour in most kitchens. For a job in Hyde Park Estate, tell us about loading bays, permits, lifts and roof access when you book.

  1. First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
  2. Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
  3. We exchange the dirty filters for a clean set.
  4. We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
  5. We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

How to get a quote

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Between visits

So the system stays in good health:

  • Make sure no filter is left out
  • Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
  • Report a dripping canopy early
  • Book full TR19 cleans alongside filter changes

If the plenum behind the filters looks greasy, we say so. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due, and we can arrange it.

Saturated filters let more grease through. Getting onto a regular exchange now keeps grease out of the plenum and ductwork until the next TR19 clean.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hyde Park Estate and across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

Hyde Park Estate questions

Which council inspects kitchens in Hyde Park Estate?

Kitchens in Hyde Park Estate are inspected by Westminster council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.

Which fire authority looks after Hyde Park Estate?

It’s London Fire Brigade, which covers Hyde Park Estate. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.

How far ahead should we book?

For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

Do you work in Hyde Park Estate?

Yes. Hyde Park Estate is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.

Where does the waste go?

Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.

How regularly do grease filters need exchanging?

That depends on the cooking. Heavy cooking means more frequent changes than lighter ones. We agree the interval with you.

Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?

No. Clean filters help keep grease down, but the ducts and plenum still need cleaning at the right interval.
