About our grease filter exchange in Tuesley
We set up grease filter exchange for kitchens in Tuesley 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. The work covers school and hospital kitchens, island canopies and wall canopies, and people most often call us about grease left in baffles after washing and filters that leave gaps in the canopy.
For a kitchen in or near Tuesley, 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.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep the canopy clear for exchange visits
- Report a dripping canopy early
- Do not let the full clean slip because filters are changed
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
We tell you if we spot anything in the canopy that needs attention. It can be a sign that a full TR19® clean is due, and we can arrange it.
Filter exchange and TR19 cleaning work best together. Setting both up on a schedule means neither slips.
How the job changes from site to site
School, care home and staff kitchens
A longer exchange interval may suit lighter cooking. The interval is set to fit.
The plenum
Behind the filters sits the plenum, where air gathers before the duct. Grease that gets past the filters settles there.
What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a short visit, depending on how many filters the canopies hold, and we clear up before we go. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Tuesley and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- We exchange the dirty filters for a clean set.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- We tell you if the plenum or canopy needs a clean.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
Tuesley questions
Who inspects food businesses in Tuesley?
In Tuesley, it’s Waverley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Tuesley out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Tuesley, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will fit the work in.
Where do the greasy filters go?
We do. The dirty filters are taken away for cleaning while a clean set goes in.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Which grease filters does the service cover?
Baffle filters and mesh filters. Tell us what you have when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, or we will check on the first visit.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Do you work in Tuesley?
Yes. We work in Tuesley and the rest of Surrey, within our South East and London area. To book, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What grease filter exchange looks like in Tuesley
The Food Standards Agency lists about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Tuesley. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. The fire and rescue service for Tuesley is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Environmental health officers from Waverley council inspect food businesses in Tuesley. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Milford Hospital is the nearest hospital to Tuesley, about within half a mile south-west. A kitchen near Milford (Surrey) station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What happens if it’s left?
Changing filters on schedule costs far less disruption than a blocked extract. Few maintenance jobs are as easy and few are as easy to forget. A fault that closes a site in a village like Tuesley affects everyone who depends on it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

What we are called out for in Tuesley
Cooking vapour carries grease into the canopy. The filters catch much of it, and day by day they load up until the air can barely get through.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Gaps where filters have been removed
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Bent or damaged filters that do not sit properly
Where a hall near St John the Evangelist's Church, or anywhere in Tuesley, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
What your quote should include
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- If they look at the system before pricing
- What insurance they carry
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change will not reach
- A fan that’s failing or too weak for the system
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
