About our grease filter exchange in Shipton Green
Each visit is quick and tidy. We lift out the dirty filters and fit a clean set, and we check they’re seated with no gaps. Anything that needs attention is pointed out. If you have a greasy plenum behind the filters and filters that come out of the sink still dirty, we can put it right, from island canopies, wall canopies and mesh filters onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Shipton Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Think of the report as the 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.

How we price grease filter exchange
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The times the site is available
- The scale of the work
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Problems your staff have spotted
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.
What happens on the day
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Shipton Green, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We record the number, size and type of your filters.
- We set the interval with you.
- The dirty set is lifted out.
- A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
- We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Related advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
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 pictures.
What happens if it’s left?
In Shipton Green, as everywhere, a filter service isn’t a substitute for TR19 cleaning. But clean filters do help the system between cleans, and that shows when the next clean comes round. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Do you need grease filter exchange in Shipton Green?
Repeated removal and washing takes its toll on filters. Damaged filters do not sit flush and grease passes round them.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Missing filters in the filter bank
- Bent or damaged filters that do not sit properly
- Filters so greasy the air can barely pass
- Filters left unwashed on busy weeks
A hospital like St Richard's Hospital, about 5.2 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A canopy that does not capture the vapour properly
- A heavily greased plenum or canopy, which needs cleaning to TR19
- A noisy or failed extract fan

Questions from Shipton Green
Is grease filter exchange any different in a coastal place like Shipton Green?
It can, as Shipton Green is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at each visit.
Will you come out to Shipton Green?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Shipton Green is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which records should we keep?
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.
Do we need to close the kitchen while filters are changed?
Most changes take a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies, so the impact is small. We’ll fit it around your service wherever we can.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
Pricing depends on the kitchen, so we quote once we know your filters and schedule. We give you a fixed quote before the first visit.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
How regularly do grease filters need exchanging?
It varies from kitchen to kitchen. The schedule is based on how heavily you cook and can change if your kitchen gets busier.
Kitchen extracts in Shipton Green
Shipton Green lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Shipton Green. Each canopy among them has filters that load with grease and need swapping or cleaning. Environmental health officers from Chichester council inspect food businesses in Shipton Green. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Nicholas' Church or elsewhere in Shipton Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. For schools such as Birdham CE Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
When your team notices a problem 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 send you a fixed quote.
