What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
About our grease filter exchange in Sarsden
Across Sarsden, our filter exchange suits restaurants, pubs, cafés, schools, care homes and other kitchens, whether there’s one canopy or many. Visits can be timed around your service, so cooking isn’t interrupted. If you have smoke and heat lingering under the hood and filters that leave gaps in the canopy, we can put it right, from school and hospital kitchens, island canopies and baffle filters onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Sarsden, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally 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 sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How it works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. In a small place like Sarsden, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- We set the interval with you.
- On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
- Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
Sarsden: your questions answered
Can you work in Sarsden outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Sarsden keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which fire service covers Sarsden?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Sarsden. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
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. File it with your fire safety records.
Do you handle baffle and mesh filters?
Baffle filters and mesh filters. Tell us what you have when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, or we’ll check on the first visit.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
The cost depends on your filters and the schedule. We will send you a fixed quote, usually within one working day.

Part by part
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
The more a kitchen cooks, the more grease the filters see. Changing them on time protects the ducts behind.
Baffle filters
Baffle filters are robust and widely used in commercial canopies. They still need regular cleaning as the collected grease builds up between the blades.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- Odours from the discharge that filters will not stop
- Grease already built up in the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Island canopies
- School and hospital kitchens

What happens if it’s left?
A filter exchange is a few minutes; a choked extract affects a whole service. Few maintenance jobs are as easy and few are as easy to forget. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Fixed quotes for grease filter exchange in Sarsden
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- The number of sites or systems
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The times the site is available
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.
Sarsden kitchens: local notes
The fire and rescue service for Sarsden is Oxfordshire 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. Food hygiene inspections in Sarsden are the job of West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
For schools such as Chipping Norton School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Sarsden (Chastleton House is about 4.3 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care. Where a hall near Church of St James, or anywhere in Sarsden, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
