Grease filter exchange across Stanwell Moor

Grease filter exchange in Stanwell Moor

The filters in the canopy are the first thing cooking vapour meets. Their job is to stop grease getting further into the system and they do it best when they’re clean. Our grease filter exchange service swaps dirty filters for clean ones on a schedule. Typical jobs include grease building up behind the canopy filters and grease dripping from the canopy, on mesh filters, wall canopies and island canopies.

Somewhere as small as Stanwell Moor, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

How the visit works

At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold. For a village or hamlet like Stanwell Moor, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. We count and measure the filters in every canopy.
  2. We agree a schedule that suits how much the kitchen cooks.
  3. On each visit, the dirty filters come out of the canopy.
  4. Clean, dry filters are fitted in their place, with no gaps left between them.
  5. We flag any damaged filters or anything wrong with the canopy.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Ask for a quote

Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

What happens if it’s left?

Washing filters in-house is an option for kitchens in Stanwell Moor, and that can work if it’s done thoroughly and on time. When it doesn’t happen reliably, an exchange makes it automatic. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Stanwell Moor rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.

Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

Why book with us

  • Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
  • Every visit written up, with photos
  • Every job surveyed first
  • In business since 2009

Aftercare tips

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Never leave gaps in the filter bank
  • Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
  • Tell us if the menu or opening hours change
  • Look out for drips from the canopy

Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Just keep the canopy clear for the next visit and let us know of any changes to opening hours.

Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. A maintenance plan that covers both keeps everything on track.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Stanwell Moor and across Surrey. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

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 photos.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Kitchen extracts in Stanwell Moor

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 53 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 8 takeaways and sandwich shops in Stanwell Moor and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they cook under a canopy, the grease filters are the first line of defence and clog quickly. Stanwell Moor is covered by Surrey 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. Environmental health officers from Spelthorne council inspect food businesses in Stanwell Moor. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Stanwell Moor, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Ashford Hospital is the nearest hospital to Stanwell Moor, about 2 miles south-east.

What a clean will not put right

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • A noisy or failed extract fan
  • Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
  • Grease deep in the extract system

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Mesh filters
  • Restaurants and pubs
  • Island canopies
  • School and hospital kitchens
  • Wall canopies
  • Baffle filters

Common problems we fix in Stanwell Moor

Washing filters by hand doesn’t always get them clean. Grease lodges deep in baffles and mesh and a sink wash rarely reaches it.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Filter washing that keeps being missed
  • A greasy plenum behind the filters
  • Filters that come out of the sink still dirty
  • Drips falling from the filters onto equipment

For kitchens close to Heathrow Terminal 5 Rail station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

What your quote should include

  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • What insurance they carry
  • What’s included in the scope, part by part

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Common questions in Stanwell Moor

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Stanwell Moor?

That’s Spelthorne council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Stanwell Moor. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Can you come to Stanwell Moor after we close?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Stanwell Moor does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Do you clean filters as well as exchanging them?

Yes, that is an option. The first step is looking at the filters you have, as damaged ones may be better replaced.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
