How we price kitchen extract cleaning

Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • How big the system is
  • The times the site is available
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle

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

Asking for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

For kitchen extract cleaning in Beckton, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send pictures or your last report if you can. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Beckton

The ducts are where most of the grease hides. We reach horizontal runs and vertical risers through access panels, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Anything out of reach is noted in the report and extra access panels can be added. The work covers vertical risers, plenums and filters and canopies and hoods, and common reasons people get in touch are a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate and grease dripping from the canopy or filters. When a restaurant in Beckton asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is our main job: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.

Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Sections without access panels are recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted so they’re cleaned next time.

In a London area like Beckton, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.

We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Common problems we fix in Beckton

What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
  • Grease smells coming from the extract
  • Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
  • A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Michael and All Angels Church or elsewhere in Beckton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Before you book anyone

  • What records you’ll receive afterwards
  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered

Questions to ask before you book

Kitchen extract cleaning in Beckton: the local picture

The FSA’s data shows about 11 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 11 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses registered within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Beckton. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. In London, kitchens are usually cleaned overnight, when the kitchen is closed and loading is easier. Food hygiene inspections in Beckton are the job of Newham council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Albert Dock Seamen's Hospital is the nearest hospital to Beckton, about 1.3 miles west. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Gallions Primary School or anywhere near Beckton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

How the visit works

Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are 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. If your building in Beckton has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.

  1. We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
  2. We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
  3. Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
  4. The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
  5. Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Getting a quote

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Why deal with it now?

After a fire, one of the first questions is often when the extract was last cleaned. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. In a London building, a problem in a duct, damper or fan rarely stays in one unit.

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Part by part

Grease filters

A filter that’s missing or bent lets grease straight past. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that do not.

Extract fan and discharge

The discharge is where air leaves the building, and grease can collect there too. It’s cleaned as far as safe access allows, and any limits are recorded.

Aftercare tips

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
  • Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
  • Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
  • Book the next clean before the date on the report

Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after photos show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.

Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, which slows build-up further down the system.

Questions from Beckton

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Beckton?

In Beckton, it’s Newham council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Which fire service covers Beckton?

Beckton is in the area of London Fire Brigade. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.

What accreditations do you hold?

We are members of Vent Hygiene Elite, the scheme run by BESCA, and we clean to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?

TR19 isn’t written into law, but the responsible person still has a legal duty under the Fire Safety Order 2005. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19 as the standard, and many policies require it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?

We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
