Managing agents and facilities teams in Faygate
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Faygate, done properly
Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That film is fuel, and cleaning the whole system is how you keep it under control. If you have proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19, we can help. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Faygate? We have been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Somewhere as small as Faygate, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A broken extract fan that will not run
- Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- A grease trap that needs emptying

What we work on in Faygate
- Horizontal duct runs
- Vertical risers
- Canopies and hoods
- Discharge points
- Extract fans
- Plenums and filters
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving the clean until the next refit does not make the grease go away. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Faygate
Can you work in Faygate outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Faygate keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you cover smaller places like Faygate?
Yes, Faygate is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
Everything from canopy to discharge: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we can’t reach is recorded on the report.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
What about areas you cannot get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
That comes down mainly to daily cooking hours. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. Your report gives a recommended next clean date.
Faygate kitchens: local notes
About 29 miles out from central London, Faygate is part of the South East area we work across. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. Faygate is covered by West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Commuter trade near Faygate station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands. A hospital like Crawley Hospital, about 3.2 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Where a hall near St Francis' Church, or anywhere in Faygate, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, and equipment can be switched back on once we have gone.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
The process
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Faygate.
- We survey the system, from your pictures or on site, canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Ask for a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Advice
What affects the quote in Faygate
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Parking and loading at the site
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
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
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
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, you get a fixed price before we start.
Part by part
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. They’re cleaned through access points along their height.
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.
