Grease filter exchange in Mayford
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps and every filter is checked when we swap them. We point out any that need replacing. The work covers restaurants and pubs, mesh filters and island canopies, and common reasons people get in touch are smoke and heat lingering under the hood and drips falling from the filters onto equipment.
Somewhere as small as Mayford, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Somewhere like Mayford, 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.
- Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
- The dirty filters leave with us and the next visit is booked.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Grease filter exchange in Mayford: the local picture
Look up Mayford on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 13 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 5 takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Mayford. Each canopy among them has filters that load with grease and need swapping or cleaning. Mayford sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Kitchens in Mayford get their food hygiene inspections from Woking council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Commuter trade near Worplesdon station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands. A hospital like Woking Community Hospital, about 1.4 miles north, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Questions from Mayford
Which council inspects kitchens in Mayford?
The local authority for Mayford is Woking council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you work overnight in Mayford?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Mayford keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Can you give a price for filter changes?
We price it on the number of filters and the visit frequency. Send us details or photos and we will quote quickly.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not typically. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we are there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Do you need grease filter exchange in Mayford?
Every fry, grill and sauté sends grease-laden vapour upwards. The filters catch much of it so they gradually clog until the air can barely get through.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
- A canopy that drips grease
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Westfield Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
What your quote should include
- Whether they recommend a next date
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- What insurance they carry
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not let the full clean slip because filters are changed
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
Keep an eye out for filters that have been taken out. A missing filter leaves a gap for grease so tell us if you need a replacement.
A kitchen that is getting busier needs its filters changed more often. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up in the ducts.
