Kitchen extract cleaning for sites in Earnley

How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Earnley

Few kitchens can stop cooking for a day so the extract can be cleaned. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, or during holidays where a site closes for them. Equipment is switched off and left to cool, the area is sheeted, and the kitchen is handed back ready to cook. The work covers horizontal duct runs, plenums and filters and canopies and hoods, and people most often call us about grease drips onto cooking equipment and a system with no record of a TR19 clean. Kitchens in Earnley 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.

Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.

In a small place like Earnley, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What affects the quote in Earnley

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • The condition of the system
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Whether several sites go on one quote

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

What we need to know

To speed up the quote, please include:

  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The site address and the type of premises

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 pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

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.

Restaurant and pub kitchens

Busy restaurant and pub kitchens often cook for long hours, frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. We clean after close or before opening.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

The process

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Earnley before we set off.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
  2. We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
  3. We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
  4. Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions

How to get a quote

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Earnley kitchens: local notes

At about 2 miles from the coast, Earnley is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. Food Standards Agency data counts about 16 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 8 takeaways in Earnley and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. Food hygiene inspections in Earnley are the job of Chichester council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Earnley Church or elsewhere in Earnley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. School kitchens, at schools like East Wittering Community Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
  • Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
  • Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
  • Book the next clean before the date on the report

Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after photos show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.

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.

When it’s something else

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains
  • Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
  • An undersized canopy or fan

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What the work covers

  • Plenums and filters
  • Extract fans
  • Canopies and hoods
  • Discharge points

  • Vertical risers

Earnley: your questions answered

Will you come out to Earnley?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Earnley included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you work overnight in Earnley?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Earnley needn’t be disturbed. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.

How long will the clean take?

Short systems are done in a few hours, while long runs and tall risers take longer and may need more than one visit. Your quote says how long to expect.

What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?

You receive a TR19 certificate and a photo report. Certificates are issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, and the report includes before and after pictures, grease readings and the recommended next clean date.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.

Which sectors do you work in?

Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
