How we handle grease filter exchange in Lamberhurst Quarter
A filter that does not sit right lets grease straight past. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps, so we check every one at each visit. We point out any that need replacing. Common call-outs are for filter washing that keeps being missed and a canopy that drips grease, on island canopies, baffle filters and wall canopies.
For a kitchen in or near Lamberhurst Quarter, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
- Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
The next exchange is already in the diary. If the kitchen gets busier, the interval can be shortened to match.
Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. A maintenance plan that covers both means neither slips.

How the visit works
We’re 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 a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. Somewhere like Lamberhurst Quarter, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Different parts, different methods
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
In a busy kitchen, filter washing is easy to skip. An exchange service takes it off the rota.
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.
What affects the cost of grease filter exchange
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- What state the system is in
- The times the site is available
- How big the system is
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
