Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Tackley
We set up grease filter exchange for kitchens in Tackley on a schedule that suits their cooking. The heavier the cooking, the more often filters need changing while a lighter kitchen can go longer. We agree the interval with you at the start. If you’re dealing with filters left unwashed on busy weeks and smoke and heat lingering under the hood, we can help, from island canopies, baffle filters and mesh filters onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Tackley, 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 to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

How we price grease filter exchange
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Parking and loading at the site
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.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Tackley.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- We note any filters that are bent, damaged or missing.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Get a fixed quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Grease-loaded filters are a fire risk in their own right. Flames from the range can be drawn up into the canopy, and from there into the duct. Clean filters mean less fuel in the canopy. A planned visit to Tackley is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Kitchen extracts in Tackley
Food hygiene inspections in Tackley are the job of West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Tackley is about 58 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included.
School kitchens, at schools like Tackley Church of England Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a café or takeaway near Tackley station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits. Where a hall near Church of St Nicholas, or anywhere in Tackley, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

How the job changes from site to site
Baffle filters
A clogged baffle filter restricts airflow. Swapping them for a clean set restores it.
The plenum
The plenum is the space behind the filters. Grease that gets past the filters settles there.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Tackley questions
Do you work in villages like Tackley?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Tackley is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Tackley be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Tackley doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
How much does a filter exchange service cost?
It depends on the number and type of filters and how often they’re changed. We will give you a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
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.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep filter exchange and TR19 cleaning on the same plan
- Look out for drips from the canopy
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
- Keep every filter in place during service
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. Setting both up on a schedule keeps everything on track.
