Myrke questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Myrke?
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Myrke. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Myrke in the summer holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. There are about 45 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Myrke. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Where does the waste go?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
How regularly do grease filters need exchanging?
That depends on the cooking. Kitchens that fry and grill all day need changes more often than lighter ones. We agree the interval with you.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
It doesn’t. Filters don’t catch everything, so grease still reaches the ductwork, so the full system still needs cleaning to TR19.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Grease filter exchange in Myrke, done properly
The filters in the canopy are the first thing cooking vapour meets. Their job is to stop grease getting further into the system, but only while they’re reasonably clean. Our grease filter exchange service swaps dirty filters for clean ones on a schedule. If you are dealing with filter washing that keeps being missed and smoke and heat lingering under the hood, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Myrke, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

How we price grease filter exchange
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is

When to call us in Myrke
Wherever you are, Myrke included, filter washing is the job that gets skipped when the kitchen is busy. A missed wash or two is all it takes for filters to fill with grease.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Filters that leave gaps in the canopy
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- A canopy that drips grease
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Laurence or anywhere around Myrke, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Before booking anyone

- What records you will receive afterwards
- Proof of insurance
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Why deal with it now?
Grease-loaded filters are a fire risk in their own right. A flare-up on the range can reach them, and from there into the duct. Keeping filters clean takes some of that fuel away. A planned visit to Myrke is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.

Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

What else we do in Myrke
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
- Watch for grease drips between visits
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
Keep an eye out for filters that have been taken out. Gaps let grease into the plenum, so let us know if one goes missing or gets damaged.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner between full cleans.
How it works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes well under an hour for most canopies. Somewhere as small as Myrke, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We count and measure the filters in every canopy.
- Together we set how often the filters should be changed.
- On each visit, the dirty filters come out of the canopy.
- Clean, dry filters are fitted in their place, with no gaps left between them.
- We flag any damaged filters or anything wrong with the canopy.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.
