About our kitchen extract cleaning in Farnham Royal

The ducts are where most of the grease hides. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Any section we can’t reach is recorded on the report and extra access panels can be added. The work covers canopies and hoods, horizontal duct runs and plenums and filters, and people most often call us about an inspection that picked up a dirty extract and proof of cleaning requested by an insurer. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Farnham Royal covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.

We clean every reachable part of the system in Farnham Royal: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.

In a village or hamlet like Farnham Royal, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, 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 cost of kitchen extract cleaning

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • What state the system is in
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

What to send for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet

For kitchen extract cleaning in Farnham Royal, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.

What happens on the day

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Farnham Royal and turn up when the site is quiet.

  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. After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
  4. The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Clear the space around the work

Getting a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.

How the job changes from site to site

Grease filters

Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. School holidays are an easy time to do it.

Leave it or put it right?

Environmental health officers inspect food businesses, in Farnham Royal as everywhere else, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters won’t go unnoticed. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

When to call us in Farnham Royal

What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Frying, grilling and roasting send far more fat into the canopy than steaming or boiling, so two kitchens with the same hours can need very different intervals.

Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • An extract that no longer clears the smoke
  • Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
  • A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
  • Fat running down the canopy edge

Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Farnham Royal is Wexham Park Hospital, about 1.8 miles east.

Questions to ask before you book

  • When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
  • If they look at the system before pricing
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify

Questions to ask before you book

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
