Kitchen extract cleaning for sites in Broad Street

Why it’s worth doing now in Broad Street

If there’s a fire and the extract hasn’t been cleaned, the paperwork becomes the problem. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A certificate in the file answers that question. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What you get with us

  • A written report with pictures after every visit
  • We are fully insured
  • One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
  • In business since 2009

Kitchen duct cleaning in Broad Street

Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That film is fuel, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. If you are dealing with rancid smells from grease in the duct and fat running down the canopy edge, we can help. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Broad Street normally mean the kitchen extract, and that’s our main job: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.

What can be cleaned depends on what can be reached. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.

Somewhere as small as Broad Street, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Broad Street?

Grease in the extract matters because it burns. Flames from a pan or grill can be pulled into the canopy by the fan, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. For a kitchen in Broad Street, keeping that fuel under control is part of the fire risk assessment.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Fat running down the canopy edge
  • A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
  • Rancid smells from grease in the duct
  • An inspection that picked up a dirty extract

Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Lamb House is about 4.1 miles north-east), access may need planning.

Our hiring checklist

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • The condition of the system
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • The number of sites or systems

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Asking for a quote

Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:

  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Broad Street questions

Which environmental health team covers Broad Street?

That’s Rother council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Broad Street. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Can you come to Broad Street after we close?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Broad Street keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.

What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?

The whole system: the canopy, the plenum behind the filters, the filters, horizontal ducts, vertical risers, the fan and the discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we can’t reach is recorded on the report.

What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.

What do I get after the clean?

Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next clean is due.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Broad Street: the local picture

At about 3 miles from the coast, Broad Street is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. It’s Rother council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Broad Street. 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. Broad Street is covered by 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.

Term dates shape school work: for a school like Icklesham Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Broad Street is Conquest Hospital, about 4.3 miles south-west.

Broad Street is about 5 miles north-east of Hastings, in East Sussex. From the centre of Broad Street to the outskirts, we cover kitchen extract cleaning for every kind of premises, from a single unit to a large public building. Across East Sussex, we cover 289 places, and Broad Street is one of them. Maidstone is in our area too, around 25 miles away.

Kitchen extract cleaning in TN36 is surveyed, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. We also cover Icklesham (1 mile east), Udimore (1 mile north), Cock Marling (2 miles north-east), Three Oaks (2 miles south-west) and Broadland Row (2 miles north-west).

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

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’re happy to quote for all of it.

When it’s something else

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:

  • A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
  • Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work

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

How it works

We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Broad Street knowing what to expect.

  1. We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
  2. Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
  3. With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
  4. The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
  5. We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Clear the space around the work

Ask for a quote

For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form 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. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
