Grease filter exchange in Redlands
Baffle filters and mesh filters both fill with grease. Clogged filters choke the airflow and the fan has to work harder. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. If you have poor airflow through the filters and grease left in baffles after washing, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Redlands, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes well under an hour for most canopies. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Redlands.
- We look at the canopies and the condition of the filters.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Advice
Why deal with it now?
Clogged filters choke the extract. The kitchen gets hotter and smokier, and the fan works harder to pull air through. Keeping filters clean keeps the extract working properly. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Redlands is calmer for everyone.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Grease, kitchens and Redlands
At about 37 miles from central London, Redlands sits well inside the area we cover. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. The fire and rescue service for Redlands is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Where a hall near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Redlands, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Fleet Community Hospital (about 3.6 miles north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Crondall Primary School or anywhere near Redlands, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Your questions about grease filter exchange in Redlands
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Redlands?
Surrey Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Redlands. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Redlands?
Food hygiene inspections in Redlands are carried out by Hart council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Does a filter exchange replace TR19 cleaning?
It doesn’t. Filters do not catch everything, so grease still reaches the ductwork and the whole system still needs its TR19 clean.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
The cost depends on your filters and the schedule. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. Keep it in your maintenance log.
How often should grease filters be changed?
It depends on how much and what the kitchen cooks. Heavy cooking means more frequent changes than lighter ones. We set a schedule that suits your kitchen.
Do you handle baffle and mesh filters?
We exchange baffle and mesh filters. We record the sizes and number of filters at the start so the clean set always fits.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change will not reach
- A canopy too small for the cooking beneath it
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Clean the canopy surfaces regularly
- Don’t refit a filter that is bent
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
- Look out for drips from the canopy
Fresh filters improve airflow at the canopy right away. Always run the extract during cooking so the filters do their job.
Bent or missing filters let grease straight past. Sorting them now keeps grease where it can be caught.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Redlands
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
How the job changes from site to site
Baffle filters
Baffle filters use overlapping metal blades that force the air to change direction. Grease drops out as it does.
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
Heavy cooking means more grease reaching every part of the system. Changing them on time protects the ducts behind.
Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Redlands
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
