TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Churchill
Professional kitchen extract cleaning in and around Churchill, timed so the site keeps working and signed off in writing with pictures.
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date is not missed.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Churchill
Every time food is cooked, warm vapour carries fat up into the extract. It cools inside the duct and settles as a sticky film that thickens month by month. That film is fuel, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. If you are dealing with grease drips onto cooking equipment and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer, we can put it right, from vertical risers, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters onwards. Whether you call it kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning or kitchen duct cleaning, in Churchill it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
For a kitchen in or near Churchill, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Kitchen extracts in Churchill
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 pubs and bars within about 1.5 miles of central Churchill. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Churchill is Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. 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 Churchill, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from West Oxfordshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Kingham Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Churchill, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Chastleton House is about 3.8 miles north-west), access may need planning.

FAQs for Churchill
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Churchill during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Churchill. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Can the work in Churchill be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19 isn’t written into law, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 does require the responsible person to manage fire risk. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19 as the standard, and many policies require it.
How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?
It depends on how many hours a day the kitchen cooks. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. Your report gives a recommended next clean date.
Do you work in Churchill?
Yes. We work in Churchill and across Oxfordshire, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
We are 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 do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
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. Leave those to us.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Churchill
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Churchill and across Oxfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
Why act early in Churchill
Grease that’s left only gets thicker. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere reaching 500 microns or more needs a spot clean right away. The longer it’s left, the bigger the job becomes. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.
Why us?

What a clean won’t put right
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- A broken extract fan that will not run
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Plenums and filters
- Canopies and hoods
- Discharge points
- Horizontal duct runs
- Vertical risers
- Extract fans
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Churchill.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. 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.
