Jevington questions
Can you come to Jevington after we close?

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Jevington?
It’s East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Jevington. 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 do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
What happens to the dirty filters?
We take them away. That is how an exchange works: you always have a clean set fitted and nothing greasy left on site.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. File it with your fire safety records.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
The common types of grease filter: baffle and mesh. Mention how many canopies you have when you get in touch and we will confirm it on site.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
Grease filter exchange in Jevington
Cleaning filters by hand takes staff time and is easy to put off. An exchange service means clean filters arrive and greasy ones leave, so the canopy is never left without filters. Common call-outs are for damaged filters letting grease past and poor airflow through the filters, on baffle filters, mesh filters and restaurants and pubs.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Grease filter exchange around Jevington
At about 3 miles from the coast, Jevington is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. The fire and rescue service for Jevington is East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Kitchens in Jevington get their food hygiene inspections from Wealden council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of St Andrew or anywhere around Jevington, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Eastbourne District General Hospital (about 2.3 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Alfriston Clergy House, about 2.7 miles west, is one of the historic houses near Jevington; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
Jevington is about 3 miles west of Eastbourne, in East Sussex. Jevington gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where necessary and a written report with photos. Our East Sussex coverage runs to 289 places, and Jevington is one of them. For sites nearby, see our Brighton page (15 miles or so).

Near you in Jevington
Around Jevington, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near The Eight Bells Inn. The closest station to Jevington is Polegate station, about 2.3 miles north-east. Nearby you’ll also find Burlough Castle (2.6 miles north-west) and Eastbourne District General Hospital (2.3 miles east). Green spaces nearby include Combe Hill.
Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
- Don’t let the full clean slip because filters are changed
Fresh filters improve airflow at the canopy from the moment they’re fitted. Keep the extract running while you cook so the filters do their job.
Damaged filters leave gaps in the defence. Replacing them early protects the plenum and ductwork.
Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.

What affects the cost of grease filter exchange
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- How easy every part is to reach
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Where the site is and how we reach it
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- A few general shots of the system
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will normally have a quote within one working day.
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the grease filter exchange, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. For a village or hamlet like Jevington, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- We set the interval with you.
- The dirty set is lifted out.
- A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
- The dirty filters leave with us and the next visit is booked.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

How the job changes from site to site
School, care home and staff kitchens
Lighter kitchens can often go longer between changes. The interval is set to fit.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are a common choice for commercial canopies. They still need regular cleaning as the collected grease builds up between the blades.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Why deal with it now?
When filters block, extraction suffers. Heat and fumes hang in the kitchen while the fan strains. A regular exchange keeps the airflow where it should be. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
