How we price kitchen extract cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Travel, parking and unloading
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- A few general shots of the system
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is

About our kitchen extract cleaning in Burnham
Any kitchen we clean in Burnham gets exactly the same specification as everywhere else we work. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. You get a TR19 certificate and a photo report at the end. The work covers vertical risers, discharge points and extract fans, and the jobs we see most are rancid smells from grease in the duct and grease drips onto cooking equipment. Kitchens in Burnham book us for TR19 cleaning for three reasons: the insurer asked, the EHO asked, or the canopy is dripping. We handle the clean and the paperwork in one visit.
What can be cleaned depends on what can be reached. Sections without access panels are recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted so they’re cleaned next time.
Kitchens around a place like Burnham are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Kitchen extracts in Burnham
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 53 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 20 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Burnham. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Food hygiene inspections in Burnham are the job of Buckinghamshire council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Burnham is covered by Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
A hospital like Upton Hospital, about 3.3 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. A kitchen near Burnham station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
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.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- An undersized canopy or fan
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What the work covers
- Extract fans
- Canopies and hoods
- Horizontal duct runs
- Discharge points
- Plenums and filters
- Vertical risers
When to call us in Burnham
Hours of cooking are the biggest factor. Under BESA guidance, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means a clean at least every 3 months, moderate use every 6 months and light use every 12. They are minimums: measured grease levels set the real interval.
These are the problems we see most often:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Poor airflow at the canopy
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Peter's Church or elsewhere in Burnham, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Why act early in Burnham
An overdue clean in Burnham is best dealt with now rather than after the next inspection. The job takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease. Booking now means the visit to Burnham is planned around you, not forced by a breakdown.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

The process
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Burnham, so let us know how to reach it.
- 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.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.
Advice
Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge is where air leaves the building, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. It’s cleaned as far as safe access allows, and any limits are recorded.
Ductwork and risers
Vertical risers carry the air up through the building, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.
