About our kitchen extract cleaning in Bodle Street Green
The part of the system nobody sees is often the dirtiest. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, removing thick grease by hand, then using degreasers, hot water or steam to suit the deposit. Any section we can’t reach is recorded on the report and extra access panels can be added. The work covers canopies and hoods, discharge points and plenums and filters, and people most often call us about ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and an extract that no longer clears the smoke. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Bodle Street Green covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
In a village or hamlet like Bodle Street Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Discharge points
- Canopies and hoods
- Vertical risers
- Extract fans
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
You will get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- The times the site is available
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- How easy every part is to reach
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. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Bodle Street Green: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Bodle Street Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Bodle Street Green doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which environmental health team covers Bodle Street Green?
That’s Wealden council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bodle Street Green. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you cover Bodle Street Green?
Yes. Bodle Street Green is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Strictly, the legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, not from TR19. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and many insurers ask for proof of it.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
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, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system, and we clear up before we go. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Bodle Street Green and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Different parts, different methods
Canopy and plenum
Grease meets the system first at the canopy and the plenum behind the filters. We clean both inside and out, including the filter housing.
Grease filters
Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.
Kitchen extracts in Bodle Street Green
East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service covers Bodle Street Green. 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. About 45 miles out from central London, Bodle Street Green is part of the South East area we work across. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Bodle Street Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. A hospital like Amberstone Hospital, about 3.6 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

What we are called out for in Bodle Street Green
A lot of duct grease gets there because the filters let it through. Filters that are bent, badly fitted, missing or left uncleaned let more fat into the plenum and duct, and it doesn’t stop until it reaches the fan.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Horselunges Manor is about 4.6 miles west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
Questions to ask before booking
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
