Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Egham Hythe
Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. 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 have grease drips onto cooking equipment and a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history, we can put it right, from extract fans, canopies and hoods and discharge points onwards. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Egham Hythe start: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Egham Hythe: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
In a smaller place like Egham Hythe, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later 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.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What the work involves, part by part
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease runs down their walls and pools at the base. They’re cleaned through access points along their height.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, and measured readings show whether the minimum interval is enough.
When to call us in Egham Hythe
How fast grease builds up depends mostly on how long the kitchen cooks each day. BESA guidance sets minimum cleaning intervals of every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours a day, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours, and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Those are minimums, and grease readings can show a kitchen needs cleaning sooner.
Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Ashford Hospital (about 2.7 miles north-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
What to look for in a quote
- Proof of insurance
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep the baffle filters clean
You leave with a date for the next clean, based on your cooking hours and the grease we measured. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date isn’t missed.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
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. That is our job.
Grease, kitchens and Egham Hythe
Food Standards Agency records list about 133 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 31 takeaways in Egham Hythe 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. Egham Hythe is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. It’s Runnymede council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Egham Hythe. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Thorpe Lea Primary School or anywhere near Egham Hythe, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Paul's Church or elsewhere in Egham Hythe, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

When something else is needed

- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
