Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Beddington
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Beddington, usually within one working day. The work covers discharge points, canopies and hoods and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19 and stale cooking odours from the system. Most calls from Beddington 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.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Beddington, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Beddington kitchens: local notes
There are about 245 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 148 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Beddington, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading isn’t affected. Beddington is covered by London Fire Brigade. 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.
Commuter trade near Waddon station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Beddington Park Primary School or anywhere near Beddington, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

What the work involves, part by part
Ductwork and risers
Bends and changes of direction trap more grease than straight runs. We test at points like these before and after cleaning, so the report shows the difference.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight, so residents and patients aren’t disturbed.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Beddington?
Hours of cooking are the biggest factor. Under BESA guidance, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means a clean at least every 3 months, moderate use every 6 months and light use every 12. Those are minimums, and grease readings can show a kitchen needs cleaning sooner.
Clients normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
Church and community hall kitchens, near Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin or anywhere around Beddington, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

How it works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Many London buildings have a managing agent, a security desk or a permit-to-work system, so tell us who to contact in Beddington.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Clear the space around the work

Beddington: your questions answered
Can school kitchens in Beddington be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 41 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Beddington. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Do you work overnight in Beddington?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Beddington needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
TR19® itself isn’t law. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19 is the benchmark used to show extract grease is under control.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What happens to the waste?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
Every clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log, ready for your insurer or an inspection.
Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the photos. A TR19 certificate follows, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Keep the fan on throughout service. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- An undersized canopy or fan
- A duct that is holed or coming apart
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
