Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Brill
The ducts are where most of the grease hides. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Anything out of reach is noted in the report, and new panels can be fitted. Common call-outs are for an inspection that picked up a dirty extract and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer, across plenums and filters, discharge points and vertical risers. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a system that’s clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, which is why a TR19® clean in Brill goes well beyond the canopy.
Work in a small place like Brill 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem 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.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
What affects the quote in Brill
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- What state the system is in
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The site address and the type of premises
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
For kitchen extract cleaning in Brill, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
Part by part
Grease filters
We clean the grease filters as part of the job, and refitted so they sit properly in the housing. Damaged ones are noted on the report.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.
Brill kitchens: local notes
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs across Brill and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Brill sits within the area of Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Brill. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near United Reformed Church, or anywhere in Brill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Brill (Boarstall Tower is about 1.9 miles west), fitting access panels needs care. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Brill Church of England School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Brill is about 6 miles north-west of Thame, in Buckinghamshire. Brill gets the same approach as every site we work on: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with pictures. Our area takes in 263 places across Buckinghamshire, large and small. Oxford is in our area too, around 9 miles away.
Every address in HP18 is covered for kitchen extract cleaning, from the main roads to the quietest streets. If you need kitchen extract cleaning at premises on High Street, The Square and Brae Hill or anywhere close by, we can help. Nearby, we also carry out kitchen extract cleaning in Little London (1 mile south-west), Oakley (1 mile south-west), Piddington (2 miles north), Ludgershall (2 miles north) and Blackthorn (4 miles north-west). Larger places within reach include Aylesbury (10 miles east), Buckingham (13 miles north), Elmhurst (10 miles east), Southcourt (10 miles east), Princes Risborough (12 miles south-east) and Haydon Hill (9 miles east).
Local landmarks in Brill
Locally, jobs take us to businesses close to The Red Lion pub, among other places. For a walk, there’s Bernwood Meadows.
What else we do in Brill
For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
What happens if it’s left?
TR19® isn’t law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. It puts a duty on the responsible person to 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. It’s simpler to plan the work at Brill now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.

Questions from Brill
Do you cover smaller places like Brill?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Brill is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you work overnight in Brill?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Brill does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Grease in an extract is a known fire risk, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Each clean gives you a certificate and photo report to show them.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. Canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge are all included, reached through access panels where needed.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that is for a ductwork contractor)
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Horizontal duct runs
- Canopies and hoods
- Discharge points
- Extract fans
- Plenums and filters
- Vertical risers
The process
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Brill.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Getting a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
