Managing agents and facilities teams in Stubbings

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Windsor and Maidenhead. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Stubbings

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. We are often asked to deal with poor airflow through the filters and hand-washed filters that still look greasy, across baffle filters, wall canopies and mesh filters.

Somewhere as small as Stubbings, 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.

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, with full insurance on top.

What happens if it’s left?

Clogged filters choke the extract. Heat and fumes hang in the kitchen while the fan strains. Keeping filters clean keeps the extract working properly. A fault that closes a site in a village like Stubbings affects everyone who depends on it.

We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Questions from Stubbings

Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Stubbings during the holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 17 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Stubbings. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.

Do you work overnight in Stubbings?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Stubbings can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Do you clean filters as well as exchanging them?

We offer filter cleaning as well as exchange. We’ll talk you through which suits your kitchen when you get in touch.

Does the report say when we need you again?

Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.

Can you give a price for filter changes?

Every kitchen is different, so we quote once we know your filters and schedule. You get a fixed price before the service starts.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.

Do you provide a certificate or report?

Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a written, dated record with photos of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.

Where do the greasy filters go?

We do. The dirty filters are taken away for cleaning and the clean set stays in the canopy.

How it works

There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes well under an hour for most canopies. Somewhere as small as Stubbings, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
  2. An exchange schedule is agreed to suit your cooking.
  3. The dirty set is lifted out.
  4. A clean set is fitted and checked for gaps.
  5. We take the greasy set away and confirm the next date.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions

When to call us in Stubbings

Wherever you are, Stubbings included, filter washing is the job that gets skipped when the kitchen is busy. A missed wash or two is all it takes for a filter bank to clog.

Clients normally contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A canopy that drips grease
  • Damaged filters letting grease past
  • A canopy running with filters missing
  • Filter washing that keeps being missed

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St. James the Less or elsewhere in Stubbings, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

What to look for in a quote

  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • What records you’ll receive afterwards
  • What hours they’ll be on site

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

When it’s something else

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • A fan that’s failing or too weak for the system
  • A canopy that doesn’t capture the vapour properly
  • Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change will not reach

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Parts of the system we cover

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

Stubbings kitchens: local notes

The Food Standards Agency lists about 5 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Stubbings. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. In Stubbings, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Windsor and Maidenhead council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Stubbings. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mark's Hospital (about 1.4 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Burchetts Green CofE Infants' School or anywhere near Stubbings, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

How we price grease filter exchange

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • How big the system is
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

What to send for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
