Kitchen extract cleaning for sites in Bewbush

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Bewbush

Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Send a few photos of the canopy and filters when you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and you will have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in Bewbush, usually within one working day. Typical jobs include heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19, on extract fans, horizontal duct runs and discharge points. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, in Bewbush it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.

Most kitchens in Bewbush fall into one of BESA’s three bands: every 3 months for 12–16 hours, every 6 months for 6–12 hours and every 12 months for 2–6 hours, adjusted by what the grease readings show.

Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Bewbush gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What a clean will not put right

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
  • A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
  • An undersized canopy or fan

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Canopies and hoods
  • Vertical risers
  • Plenums and filters
  • Extract fans
  • Discharge points
  • Horizontal duct runs

How the job changes from site to site

Restaurant and pub kitchens

High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, and measured readings show whether the minimum interval is enough.

Grease filters

Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that do not.

Keeping the system healthy

So the system stays in good health:

  • Keep the baffle filters clean
  • Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
  • Run the extract fan throughout cooking
  • File each certificate with the fire risk assessment

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

Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • 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

You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll talk you through it.

Asking for a quote

What to send for a quote:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Bewbush

The Food Standards Agency lists about 12 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 4 hotels and guest houses as registered food businesses across Bewbush and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service covers Bewbush. 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 Bewbush get their food hygiene inspections from Crawley council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

For kitchens close to Ifield station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. School kitchens, at schools like The Bewbush Academy for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hospital like Crawley Hospital, about 1.3 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Questions from Bewbush

Can the work in Bewbush be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Bewbush doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Bewbush?

Bewbush is in the area of West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?

No law names TR19 directly, but the responsible person still has a legal duty under the Fire Safety Order 2005. TR19 is the standard insurers and fire officers expect, and many policies require it.

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 hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 too, and we’re fully insured.

How much notice do you need?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

What is TR19?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.

What staff can safely do

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

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.

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the kitchen extract cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Bewbush when you book.

  1. We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
  2. Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
  3. Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
  4. Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
  5. We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

How to get a quote

Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
