Allhallows-on-Sea kitchen extract cleaning
Kitchen extract cleaning for Allhallows-on-Sea, with a survey first and a report with photos at the end. Call for a fixed quote.
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Grease smells coming from the extract
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
When the clean is finished, grease readings are taken again at the same points, so you can see the difference in numbers as well as pictures. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Allhallows-on-Sea
Few kitchens can stop cooking for a day so the extract can be cleaned. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, or between services where the kitchen has a gap. With the equipment off and cool and the area sheeted, we clean and hand the kitchen back ready for the next service. If you have grease dripping from the canopy or filters and a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction, we can help. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Allhallows-on-Sea, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Medway.
The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, so that’s where most of the work in Allhallows-on-Sea goes.
For a kitchen in or near Allhallows-on-Sea, 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.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Why act early in Allhallows-on-Sea
Grease that’s left only gets thicker. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere reaching 500 microns or more needs a spot clean right away. Heavy build-up takes longer to remove than regular cleans. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Visits to a village like Allhallows-on-Sea are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- You send pictures or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Advice
What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Some healthcare kitchens never fully close. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight with as little disruption as possible.
Grease filters
A filter that is missing or bent lets grease straight past. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that don’t.
What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Allhallows-on-Sea questions
Which fire authority looks after Allhallows-on-Sea?
That’s Kent Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can the work in Allhallows-on-Sea be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Allhallows-on-Sea needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
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 you’ve dealt with extract grease.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Grease, kitchens and Allhallows-on-Sea
Sea air reaches Allhallows-on-Sea, which sits within about 1 mile of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. There are about 3 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Allhallows-on-Sea, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. Allhallows-on-Sea sits within the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Allhallows-on-Sea, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Allhallows Primary Academy tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

When to call us in Allhallows-on-Sea
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. That is why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
A hospital like Chartwell Private Hospital, about 5.2 miles north, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
