Kitchen extract cleaning in Brookwood, Surrey
TR19 grease cleaning of complete kitchen extract systems, from canopy to discharge for Brookwood, with a survey first and a report with pictures at the end. Ask us for a fixed quote.
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Brookwood can be planned properly.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- 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.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Get a fixed quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Brookwood
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Brookwood, normally within one working day. The work covers plenums and filters, vertical risers and discharge points, and people most often call us about grease smells coming from the extract and heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs. 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 Brookwood fall into one of BESA’s three bands: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and yearly for light use, adjusted by what the grease readings show.
In a village or hamlet like Brookwood, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Grease, kitchens and Brookwood
Food Standards Agency data counts about 17 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 11 takeaways in and around Brookwood, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Environmental health officers from Woking council inspect food businesses in Brookwood. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Brookwood falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
For kitchens close to Brookwood station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. Church and community hall kitchens, near Saint Saviour's Church or anywhere around Brookwood, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
Brookwood is about 3 miles west of Woking, in Surrey. We carry out kitchen extract cleaning for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Brookwood and the rest of Surrey. Across Surrey, we cover 395 places, and Brookwood is one of them.
All of GU24 is covered for kitchen extract cleaning, from the main roads to the quietest streets. That includes premises on Sheet's Heath Lane, Connaught Road and Heath Drive and the roads around them. Other places close to Brookwood include Sheet's Heath (1 mile north), Knaphill (1 mile north-east), Bisley (1 mile north), Lucas Green (2 miles north) and West End (2 miles north). We also work in nearby towns such as Guildford (5 miles south-east), Woking (3 miles east), Camberley (4 miles north-west), Farnham (9 miles south-west), Egham (9 miles north-east) and Walton-on-Thames (11 miles north-east).
Local landmarks in Brookwood
Around Brookwood, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Knowl Hill School, Nag's Head Inn and Brookwood Lye and the streets around them. Brookwood has its own railway station: Brookwood station. Nearby you’ll also find Brookwood Hospital (1.1 miles north-east) and The Peacocks (3.5 miles east). The countryside around Brookwood includes Brookwood Lye.
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
Every clean ends with a photo report. It shows the system before and after, part by part, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Multi-site and managed buildings
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 to a regular schedule.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The size of the system
- The times the site is available
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Brookwood, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send photos or your last report if you can. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.
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.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Brookwood: your questions answered
Who is the fire and rescue service for Brookwood?
Brookwood is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Brookwood during the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Brookwood. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
How long will the clean take?
It takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. The survey tells us how long your system will need.
Do you cover Brookwood?
Yes. Our technicians work in Brookwood, within the South East and London area we cover.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Brookwood?
Hours of cooking are the biggest factor. BESA guidance sets minimum cleaning intervals of every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours a day, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours, and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. They are minimums: measured grease levels set the real interval.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Brookwood is Brookwood Hospital, about 1.1 miles north-east.
Before booking anyone
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- Whether they recommend a next date

Extract fan and discharge
The fan pulls the air through the whole system, and grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades. We isolate it, open it up and degrease it.
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.
