Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Cannon Hill

We’ve been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. Typical jobs include cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate, on vertical risers, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Cannon Hill normally mean the kitchen extract, and that is exactly what we do: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.

Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Cannon Hill goes well beyond the canopy.

Kitchens in Cannon Hill, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Aftercare tips

Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Give the canopy a daily wipe
  • Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
  • Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
  • Run the extract fan throughout cooking

You get a photo report after every clean. It shows the system before and after, part by part, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.

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.

Kitchen extracts in Cannon Hill

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 212 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 52 sandwich bars and takeaways in Cannon Hill and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. Cannon Hill sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Cannon Hill, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Merton council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Bursars and site managers at schools such as Hillcross Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Commuter trade near South Merton station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands. A hospital like St. Anthony's Hospital, about 1.5 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Cannon Hill

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.

What the work involves, part by part

Ductwork and risers

Bends and changes of direction trap more grease than straight runs. We test at points like these before and after cleaning, so the report shows the difference.

Extract fan and discharge

At the end of the system is the discharge, and grease can collect there too. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Cannon Hill

Is parking a problem for work in Cannon Hill?

We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. If the building has a loading slot system, we will book into it.

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Cannon Hill?

Cannon Hill is in the area of London Fire Brigade. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.

Do you work in Cannon Hill?

Yes. Our technicians work in Cannon Hill, within the South East and London area we cover.

What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?

Everything from canopy to discharge: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we cannot reach is recorded on the report.

Will the clean disrupt our service?

Cleans are timed to avoid service. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends, so you don’t lose a service.

What should I send you?

Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?

We clean to BESA TR19® Grease as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, with certificates issued through the BESCA portal. We have been trading since 2009.

When it’s something else

We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:

  • A broken extract fan that won’t run
  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains
  • A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed

If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work

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

What happens on the day

There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Cannon Hill.

  1. We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
  2. We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
  3. Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
  4. The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
  5. Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

How to get a quote

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

How we price kitchen extract cleaning

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Whether several sites go on one quote

A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.

What to send for a quote

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

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What staff can safely do

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
