Kitchen Extract Cleaning in Aylesham

Different parts, different methods

Extract fan and discharge

Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.

Canopy and plenum

Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Aylesham: the local picture

Food Standards Agency data counts about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 5 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Aylesham, up to about a mile and a half out. Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. Environmental health officers from Dover council inspect food businesses in Aylesham. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Aylesham is covered by Kent Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Aylesham is St Martins Hospital, about 5.2 miles north-west. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Peter, or anywhere in Aylesham, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

For landlords and multi-site operators

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
