Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Roundbush
You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The condition of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
How we handle grease filter exchange in Roundbush
Good filters only work when they fit properly. Gaps in the filter bank are a direct route into the plenum, so we check every one at each visit. Damaged filters are flagged so they can be replaced. We’re often asked to deal with damaged filters letting grease past and a canopy that drips grease, on wall canopies, restaurants and pubs and mesh filters.
Work in a small place like Roundbush starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What else we do in Roundbush
Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
What grease filter exchange cannot fix
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- Grease already built up in the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- A fan that’s failing or too weak for the system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Baffle filters
- Wall canopies
- Island canopies
- School and hospital kitchens
- Mesh filters
- Restaurants and pubs
Do you need grease filter exchange in Roundbush?
However long the kitchen cooks each day, the filters see every minute of it. A kitchen that cooks all day loads its filters quickly, so it needs more frequent changes.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A canopy running with filters missing
- Grease filters clogged with grease
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Cold Norton Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
What to look for in a quote
- If they look at the system before pricing
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether VAT is included
- When the next visit should be, and why
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Roundbush, let us know and we will plan around it.
- 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.
- We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Roundbush questions
Which council inspects kitchens in Roundbush?
In Roundbush, it’s Maldon council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do you cover smaller places like Roundbush?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Roundbush included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We normally quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
Can you clean our existing filters instead?
Yes, that is an option. The first step is looking at the filters you have because bent or damaged ones may need replacing.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
It does not. Some grease passes the filters as vapour and settles in the ducts and the whole system still needs its TR19 clean.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
Leave it or put it right?
Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Drips land on surfaces and equipment below, which an EHO may well notice. With notice, the visit to Roundbush can be fitted around your bookings and events.
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.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Grease filter exchange in Roundbush: the local picture
Roundbush lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. The FSA’s data shows about 3 pubs, bars and clubs registered within about 1.5 miles of central Roundbush. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Kitchens in Roundbush get their food hygiene inspections from Maldon council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Parish Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Roundbush, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
