Kitchen extract cleaning in Bovingdon Green
A kitchen extract system is far more than the canopy you can see. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and each part collects grease. Our clean follows the air from canopy to discharge, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. If you are dealing with an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19 and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, we can help, from extract fans, vertical risers and canopies and hoods onwards. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Bovingdon Green? We have been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.
A clean in Bovingdon Green covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What we’re called out for in Bovingdon Green
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. They are minimums: measured grease levels set the real interval.
What we are most often called out for:
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Marlow Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Bovingdon Green, about 1.4 miles east.

What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. In a small place like Bovingdon Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- 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
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.

A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.

How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What affects the quote in Bovingdon Green
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The condition of the system
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
- Fire dampers that will not close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Extract fans
- Discharge points
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Vertical risers
- Canopies and hoods
What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
Any section without access is marked on the report. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and new access panels can be fitted so the next clean covers it.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
