How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Boreham Street
We have been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and are fully insured. If you have cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and grease drips onto cooking equipment, we can put it right. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
Most kitchens in Boreham Street 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, with grease readings setting the real interval.
In a small place like Boreham Street, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Boreham Street and across East Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A duct that is holed or coming apart
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the job changes from site to site
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that cannot.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Some healthcare kitchens never fully close. We plan the clean around meal times and work in a contained, tidy way, so residents and patients aren’t disturbed.
Why deal with it now?
Environmental health officers inspect food businesses, in Boreham Street as everywhere else, and they look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment, extraction included. A clean extract is one less thing to worry about on the day. In a small place like Boreham Street, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

Boreham Street questions
Can you work in Boreham Street outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Boreham Street keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Which fire service covers Boreham Street?
That’s East 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.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
The legal duty sits in the Fire Safety Order 2005 rather than in TR19 itself. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and many insurers ask for proof of it.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we will usually reply within one working day.
How long will the clean take?
A small kitchen with a short duct can be done in a few hours, but large systems may be spread over more than one visit. We will tell you how long when we quote.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Common problems we fix in Boreham Street
In Boreham Street, as anywhere, grease gathers where the air slows down: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. The cooler the duct, the more grease drops out of the air.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
Whether the kitchen is in Boreham Street itself or nearby, a TR19® clean covers the whole system, canopy to discharge.

How it works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Boreham Street before we set off.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before work begins.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. 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.
Advice
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Boreham Street
Fire safety in Boreham Street falls to East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Kitchens in Boreham Street get their food hygiene inspections from Wealden council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Amberstone Hospital about 4 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
