About our kitchen extract cleaning in Fairseat
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with photos of the canopy and filters, and you’ll have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in Fairseat, normally within one working day. The work covers horizontal duct runs, discharge points and plenums and filters, and the jobs we see most are a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate and grease dripping from the canopy or filters. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Fairseat covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
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.
In a village or hamlet like Fairseat, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- A broken extract fan that will not run
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
The report gives a recommended date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date is not missed.
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.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Fairseat and across Kent. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
FAQs for Fairseat
Is Fairseat within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Fairseat during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 7 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Fairseat, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
The minimum is set by BESA guidance on daily use, from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Kitchens that fry or grill a lot may need cleaning sooner, which grease thickness testing will show.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
You get both a certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log, ready for your insurer or an inspection.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Normally, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we typically come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, our work sits within an independently audited scheme. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Somewhere as small as Fairseat, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Kitchen extracts in Fairseat
There are about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Fairseat, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Fairseat sits within the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. In Fairseat, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Tonbridge and Malling council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
School kitchens, at schools like Wrotham School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Holy Innocents or elsewhere in Fairseat, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Fairseat (Old Soar Manor is about 4.5 miles south), fitting access panels needs care.

Landmarks near Fairseat
Typical jobs here are in premises near Trosley Country Park and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Borough Green & Wrotham station, roughly 2.6 miles south of the centre. A little further out are Ightham Court (2.9 miles south-west) and Coldrum Long Barrow (2 miles east).
How the job changes from site to site
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.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.
