People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Broyle Side normally mean the kitchen extract, and that’s our main job: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.

A clean in Broyle Side covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.

Work in a small place like Broyle Side starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Honest limits

Kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It does not solve:

  • Damaged duct sections that need replacing
  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct
  • Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Where we work

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

Between visits

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
  • Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
  • Switch the fan on before cooking starts
  • Refit filters properly after cleaning

After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the pictures. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Switching it off early leaves vapour to settle on the canopy and plenum, and the next clean has more to do.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

Why deal with it now?

After a fire, one of the first questions is often when the extract was last cleaned. Many policies require cleaning to TR19, and an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof. A current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Broyle Side rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.

You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

What we’re called out for in Broyle Side

What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.

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

  • An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
  • Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
  • Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
  • Stale cooking odours from the system

If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Lewes Victoria Hospital about 4 miles south-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Broyle Side

Can you come to Broyle Side after we close?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Broyle Side needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Do you work in villages like Broyle Side?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

Which parts of the extract do you clean?

A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where needed.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Broyle Side?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.

Where does the waste go?

We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.

What should I send you?

Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?

Grease-filled ducts can carry fire well beyond the kitchen. Many policies say the extract must be cleaned to TR19, and a claim may be reduced without proof, so keep every certificate.

Different parts, different methods

Grease filters

Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.

Extract fan and discharge

Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that cannot.

How it works

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the kitchen extract cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Broyle Side, let us know and we will plan around it.

  1. You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
  2. We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
  3. On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
  4. Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
  5. We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.

Getting ready 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
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand

Getting a quote

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
