When to call us in New Haw
However long the kitchen cooks each day, the filters see every minute of it. Heavy daily use means fast build-up so changes need to come round sooner.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Staff short of time to wash filters
Term dates shape school work: for a school like The Grange Community Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in New Haw
Each visit is quick and tidy. We lift out the dirty filters and fit a clean set, and we check they’re seated with no gaps. If something looks wrong, we tell you. If you’re dealing with smoke and heat lingering under the hood and a canopy running with filters missing, we can help, from mesh filters, restaurants and pubs and wall canopies onwards.
Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like New Haw gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What affects the cost of grease filter exchange
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The scale of the work
- Travel, parking and unloading
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Any previous report or certificate
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Kitchen extracts in New Haw
Look up New Haw on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 82 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 36 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of New Haw. Where they cook under a canopy, the grease filters are the first line of defence and clog quickly. The fire and rescue service for New Haw is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. In New Haw, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Runnymede council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Runnymede Hospital about 2.3 miles north-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near All Saints Church or elsewhere in New Haw, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What the work involves, part by part
Canopy filter housings
Every exchange includes a check of how the filters sit, because gaps let grease through.
Mesh filters
Layers of mesh catch grease droplets. They clog quickly in a busy kitchen, so they need changing often.
Questions from New Haw
Which fire service covers New Haw?
Fire safety enforcement in New Haw is handled by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Is New Haw within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, New Haw included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
How much does a filter exchange service cost?
Filters, canopies and how often you need visits all affect the price. Tell us what you have and we’ll come back with a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle and mesh filters are both covered. We check what’s in your canopies first and plan the exchange around them.
Do you take the used filters away?
We take them away to be cleaned, so your staff don’t have to wash them. Clean filters go straight in.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
Is there a cleaning option for the filters we have?
We can. Some kitchens prefer their own filters cleaned on a schedule, and others prefer a straight swap. Either way, the canopy is not left without filters during service.
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like New Haw.

Related advice
Why act early in New Haw
When filters block, extraction suffers. The kitchen gets hotter and smokier, and the fan works harder to pull air through. Keeping filters clean keeps the extract working properly. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Why book with us
- Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
- Full insurance on every job

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
