Kitchen extract cleaning in Bayswater

Managing agents and facilities teams in Bayswater

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 can quote for the whole system.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Bayswater

Across Bayswater, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. At the finish there’s a TR19 certificate and a before and after photo report. If you have cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and stale cooking odours from the system, we can help, from vertical risers, plenums and filters and extract fans onwards. Most calls from Bayswater come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. We handle the clean and the paperwork in one visit.

We clean every reachable part of the system in Bayswater: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.

Kitchens in Bayswater, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

FAQs for Bayswater

Do you work at weekends in Bayswater?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Bayswater doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.

Do you clean school canteen extracts around Bayswater out of term?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 95 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Bayswater. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Do you cover Bayswater?

Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Bayswater included.

What about areas you can’t get to?

Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.

How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?

Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and 12-monthly for light use. Measured grease levels set the real interval.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.

Leave it or put it right?

There’s no law that names TR19, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 still applies. The responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which in a kitchen includes the grease in the extract. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. Leaving it on a busy London site only adds to the work.

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

Between visits

To keep the system working properly between visits:

  • Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
  • Refit filters properly after cleaning
  • Keep the baffle filters clean
  • Switch the fan on before cooking starts

A TR19 certificate notes the date, the location and the technician. File it with the fire risk assessment and the maintenance log, so it’s to hand when an insurer, fire officer or EHO asks.

Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Most London sites cannot stop for the day, so work in Bayswater is normally done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.

  1. We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
  2. Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
  3. Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
  4. We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
  5. We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Get a fixed quote

We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

How we price kitchen extract cleaning

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • What state the system is in
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing

A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.

What to send for a quote

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Bayswater

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 1,624 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 157 takeaways across Bayswater and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Most London extract cleaning happens at night, after the last service. Bayswater sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

School kitchens, at schools like Fox Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A kitchen near London Paddington station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. A hospital like St Mary Abbot's Hospital, about 0.8 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Bayswater is about 1 mile north-east of Kensington, in Greater London. Bayswater gets the same approach as every site we work on: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with pictures. 764 places in Greater London are on our list, large and small.

Kitchen extract cleaning in W2, W8 and W11 is surveyed, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Kitchen extract cleaning is available to premises on Dukes Lane, Salem Road and Aubrey Road and nearby roads. Main roads around Bayswater include the A4204 and A4206, which makes travel easy for evening and night visits. If your site is just outside Bayswater, we cover Westbourne (1 mile north), Westbourne Green (1 mile north), Little Venice (1 mile north-east), Paddington (1 mile north-east) and Paddington Green (1 mile north-east). We also work in nearby towns such as London (4 miles east), St Pancras (3 miles east), Shoreditch (5 miles east), Walthamstow (9 miles north-east), Hoxton (5 miles east) and Whitechapel (5 miles east).

Landmarks near Bayswater

Typical jobs here are in premises near Kensington Palace Green, Abdus Salam Library and Kensington School, among other places.

The nearest railway station is London Paddington station, about 0.9 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are St Mary Abbot's Hospital (0.8 miles south) and Montfichet's Tower (3.9 miles east). Not far away are Greville Place nature reserve and The Long Water.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

School kitchens can look lightly used but still need a TR19 clean at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. Holidays make it simple to schedule.

Extract fan and discharge

The discharge is where air leaves the building, and grease can collect there too. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.

When it’s something else

Kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:

  • A canopy that’s too small or a system that was badly designed
  • A fan motor that has burnt out
  • Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that is for a ductwork contractor)

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think before booking.
