Grease filter exchange in Slough Green, done properly
Whether your canopy has baffle or mesh filters, they load up with grease. Once they’re clogged, airflow drops and the fan has to work harder. A steady cycle of clean filters keeps extraction strong. The work covers island canopies, mesh filters and restaurants and pubs, and common reasons people get in touch are missing filters in the filter bank and blocked baffle filters.
For a kitchen in or near Slough Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Grease, kitchens and Slough Green
There are about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Slough Green, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Clogged filters slow the airflow, and busy kitchens like these clog them fast. Food hygiene inspections in Slough Green are the job of Mid Sussex council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. The fire and rescue service for Slough Green is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Tyes Place, about 1.3 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Slough Green; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

What else we do in Slough Green
Slough Green: your questions answered
Do you work in villages like Slough Green?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Slough Green included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work in Slough Green outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Slough Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we are there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
No. Filter exchange works between full cleans, not instead of them. A TR19® clean deals with the whole system and comes with a certificate and photo report.
Signs you need grease filter exchange in Slough Green
Sometimes a filter is taken out and never put back. Every gap in the filter bank lets grease straight into the plenum where it settles out of sight.
Look out for any of the following:
- Drips falling from the filters onto equipment
- Bent or damaged filters that don’t sit properly
- Grease building up behind the canopy filters
- Filter washing that keeps being missed
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Slough Green is The Dene Hospital, about 3.7 miles south.
Before you book anyone
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
- Always run the extract while cooking
- Mention it if the kitchen gets busier
- Look out for drips from the canopy
Once the clean filters are in, the kitchen can cook right away. The dirty set leaves with us for cleaning.
A kitchen that’s getting busier needs its filters changed more often. Changing the interval early stops grease building up unseen in the ducts.
Why act early in Slough Green
Dripping canopies and greasy smells often start with the filters. Left, it ends up on equipment, food areas and staff and that’s the kind of thing inspectors look for. In a place like Slough Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What the work involves, 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.
Canopy filter housings
We check that filters sit snugly in the housing at each visit since a gap is a route for grease.
What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes less than an hour in most kitchens. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Slough Green and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We count and measure the filters in every canopy.
- A change schedule is agreed to match the kitchen’s cooking hours.
- At each visit, the greasy filters are lifted out.
- Clean, dry filters are fitted in their place, with no gaps left between them.
- If a filter is damaged or the plenum needs attention, we tell you.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Clear loose items from the work area
