Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
About our grease filter exchange in Stanton St John
A filter that doesn’t sit right lets grease straight past. Bent, damaged or missing filters leave gaps and every filter is checked when we swap them. We point out any that need replacing. The work covers mesh filters, baffle filters and island canopies, and the jobs we see most are gaps where filters have been removed and filters left unwashed on busy weeks.
For a kitchen in or near Stanton St John, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Different parts, different methods
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
When service is non-stop, filters get forgotten. An exchange service takes it off the rota.
School, care home and staff kitchens
A longer exchange interval may suit lighter cooking. We agree the schedule to match.
Questions from Stanton St John
Can you get to a site in Stanton St John?
Yes, Stanton St John is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which fire authority looks after Stanton St John?
That’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Which records should we keep?
Every certificate and report from each visit, kept together in your maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
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.
How the visit works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes well under an hour for most canopies, and we clear up before we go. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Stanton St John run smoothly.
- 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.
- The dirty filters leave with us and the next visit is booked.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Ask for a quote
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Let us know if your cooking hours increase
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Wipe the outside of the canopy as part of daily cleaning
Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Just keep the canopy clear for the next visit and tell us if service times change.
Filters that are left too long stop protecting the system. A regular cycle keeps the rest of the system cleaner until the next TR19 clean.
What happens if it’s left?
Washing filters in-house is an option for kitchens in Stanton St John, and that can work if it’s done thoroughly and on time. Where it slips, an exchange service takes the job off staff. In a place like Stanton St John, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

Kitchen extracts in Stanton St John
Kitchens in Stanton St John get their food hygiene inspections from South Oxfordshire council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Stanton St John sits within the area of Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Stanton St John is Churchill Hospital, about 2.7 miles south-west. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Stanton St John (Holywell Manor is about 4 miles south-west), fitting access panels needs care. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere in Stanton St John, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
