Grease, kitchens and Beenham Stocks
The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses across Beenham Stocks and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. It’s West Berkshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Beenham Stocks. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Beenham Stocks falls to Royal Berkshire 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.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Beenham Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Beenham Stocks, done properly
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Send a few photos of the canopy and filters when you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and you will have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in Beenham Stocks, typically within one working day. The work covers plenums and filters, canopies and hoods and vertical risers, and common reasons people get in touch are poor airflow at the canopy and fat running down the canopy edge. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Beenham Stocks, you get one team and one number for every site.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Work in a small place like Beenham Stocks starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Beenham Stocks
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
- Stale cooking odours from the system
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Beenham Stocks, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What your quote should include
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Whether a survey comes first
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
What a clean won’t put right
Kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It does not solve:
- An undersized canopy or fan
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Where we work
- Extract fans
- Horizontal duct runs
- Canopies and hoods

Common questions in Beenham Stocks
Do you cover smaller places like Beenham Stocks?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Beenham Stocks is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Beenham Stocks?
It’s Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Beenham Stocks. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
What accreditations do you hold?
Our work is to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, and certificates go through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. We’ve been trading since 2009.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
It takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.
What is TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Overnight, weekend and between-service cleans are all possible, so you don’t lose a service.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Beenham Stocks.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, so you can start cooking as normal.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
What happens if it’s left?
There’s no law that names TR19, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 still applies. The responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. Cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve done it. A fault that closes a site in a village like Beenham Stocks affects everyone who depends on it.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
