How we price kitchen extract cleaning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The scale of the work
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- A few general shots of the system
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Bromley
The part of the system nobody sees is often the dirtiest. 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. If you’re dealing with fat running down the canopy edge and a kitchen taken over without any extract records, we can help, from extract fans, horizontal duct runs and canopies and hoods onwards. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Bromley typically mean the kitchen extract, and that’s exactly what we do: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
London kitchens tend to trade late and open early, so work in Bromley is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Parking, loading and access to the roof are agreed with the building before the night of the clean.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Kitchen extracts in Bromley
There are about 163 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 58 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Bromley, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Environmental health officers from Bromley council inspect food businesses in Bromley. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. London Fire Brigade covers Bromley. 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.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Peter and St Paul, or anywhere in Bromley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. For kitchens close to Bromley South station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Bromley is no exception.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
When to call us in Bromley
The reason for all this is fire. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, where burning grease can carry a fire along the ducts and into other parts of the building. That is why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
Bursars and site managers at schools such as St Mark's Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
FAQs for Bromley
Can parking be tricky for a job in Bromley?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Bromley makes the visit easier to plan. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.
Can school kitchens in Bromley be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 9 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Bromley. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Grease in an extract is a known fire risk, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
What do I get after the clean?
Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. It records what was cleaned, what wasn’t accessible and the recommended next clean date.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
Why deal with it now?
Putting it off simply moves the grease further down the duct. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, and that takes more work to shift. Staying on a regular cycle keeps each clean manageable. London sites work long hours, and the longer a job is left, the bigger it gets.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
