Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that cannot.
Ductwork and risers
Vertical risers carry the air up through the building, and grease runs down their walls and pools at the base. They’re cleaned through access points along their height.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Badgers Mount, done properly
Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. We are often asked to deal with an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer and missing paperwork after a change of operator, on extract fans, discharge points and horizontal duct runs. Kitchens in Badgers Mount book us for TR19 cleaning for three reasons: the insurer asked, the EHO asked, or the canopy is dripping. We handle the clean and the paperwork in one visit.
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 Badgers Mount goes.
Somewhere as small as Badgers Mount, 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, whatever the size of the place.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Badgers Mount
Can you work in Badgers Mount outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Badgers Mount keeps running as normal. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Badgers Mount?
Badgers Mount is in the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Usually, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we typically come back within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we will survey first.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The site address and the type of premises
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Why deal with it now?
Any food business in Badgers Mount can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters won’t go unnoticed. A clean extract is one less thing to worry about on the day. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
You get a photo report after every clean. It shows the system before and after, part by part, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
Kitchen extracts in Badgers Mount
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 4 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Badgers Mount and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Fire safety in Badgers Mount falls to Kent Fire and Rescue Service. 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. Kitchens in Badgers Mount get their food hygiene inspections from Sevenoaks council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
