Kitchen extract cleaning in Crockleford Heath: the local picture

Food Standards Agency records list about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 5 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Crockleford Heath, up to about a mile and a half out. Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. Essex County Fire and Rescue Service covers Crockleford Heath. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Kitchens in Crockleford Heath get their food hygiene inspections from Tendring council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

What the work involves, part by part

Ductwork and risers

Grease builds up most where the duct turns. We test at points like these before and after cleaning, so the report shows the difference.

Extract fan and discharge

Grease that reaches the fan coats the blades and the housing. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned as part of the TR19 clean.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Crockleford Heath

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

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.
