Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Radnage
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. Regular exchange keeps the air moving. If you have grease building up behind the canopy filters and a canopy running with filters missing, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Questions from Radnage
Will you come out to Radnage?
Yes. Radnage is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which fire service covers Radnage?
It’s Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Radnage. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
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.
Do you clean filters as well as exchanging them?
Yes, that’s an option. The first step is looking at the filters you have because bent or damaged ones may need replacing.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle filters and mesh filters. Mention how many canopies you have when you get in touch and we’ll confirm it on site.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change won’t reach
- Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters
- Grease behind the filters that a swap cannot remove
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Island canopies
- Restaurants and pubs
- School and hospital kitchens
- Mesh filters
- Baffle filters
- Wall canopies
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Clear anything stored on or near the canopy
- Make sure no filter is left out
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
The next exchange is already in the diary. If the kitchen gets busier, the interval can be shortened to keep up.
Bent or missing filters let grease straight past. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
What else we do in Radnage
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Radnage kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in and around Radnage, up to about a mile and a half out. Each canopy among them has filters that load with grease and need swapping or cleaning. Food hygiene inspections in Radnage are the job of Buckinghamshire council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Radnage falls to Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
For schools such as Radnage Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Radnage, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Wycombe Hospital about 5.5 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

What we do, step by step
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. The timing of a visit to Radnage is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First, we record the size, type and number of filters in each canopy.
- We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
- At each visit, the greasy filters are lifted out.
- Clean filters go straight back in, seated properly with no gaps.
- We flag any damaged filters or anything wrong with the canopy.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What the work involves, part by part
Mesh filters
Grease lodges deep in the layers of a mesh filter, which makes hand-washing hard work.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Lighter kitchens can often go longer between changes. The interval is set to fit.
