Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Newney Green
Whether your canopy has baffle or mesh filters, they load up with grease. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the fan has to work harder. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. Typical jobs include missing filters in the filter bank and blocked baffle filters, on restaurants and pubs, island canopies and wall canopies.
Work in a small place like Newney Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Book full TR19 cleans alongside filter changes
- Clear anything stored on or near the canopy
We tell you if we spot anything in the canopy that needs attention. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due, and we can arrange it.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. Getting onto a regular exchange now keeps grease out of the plenum and ductwork between full cleans.
What happens if it’s left?
Changing filters on schedule costs far less disruption than a blocked extract. Few maintenance jobs are as easy and few are as easy to forget. With notice, the visit to Newney Green can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Advice
When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what grease filter exchange won’t do:
- Grease behind the filters that a swap cannot remove
- An extract that was undersized from the start
- Grease deep in the extract system
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What grease filter exchange looks like in Newney Green
Food Standards Agency data counts about 4 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Newney Green. Swapping filters on a schedule keeps kitchens like these drawing air properly. Environmental health officers from Chelmsford council inspect food businesses in Newney Green. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Newney Green is covered by Essex County 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.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Michael and All Angels or elsewhere in Newney Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Chelmsford and Essex Hospital is the nearest hospital to Newney Green, about 3.2 miles south-east.

Part by part
Canopy filter housings
We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit, because gaps let grease through.
School, care home and staff kitchens
For kitchens closed in the holidays, visits can be timed around term or rota so the filters are clean when cooking picks up.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Newney Green
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Signs you need grease filter exchange in Newney Green
Cooking vapour carries grease into the canopy. Much of it is trapped by the filters, and day by day they load up and airflow falls away.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Staff short of time to wash filters
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Grease left in baffles after washing
- A canopy that drips grease
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Hylands School or anywhere near Newney Green, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Common questions in Newney Green
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Newney Green?
Food hygiene inspections in Newney Green are carried out by Chelmsford council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can you work in Newney Green outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Newney Green needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
It depends on the number and type of filters and how often they’re changed. We will give you a fixed quote once we know your canopies.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
It isn’t. The rest of the system still collects grease at the right interval.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with pictures, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
