Kitchen extract cleaning in Fifield: the local picture
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Fifield. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Kitchens in Fifield get their food hygiene inspections from West Oxfordshire council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Moore Cottage Hospital (about 4.6 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere in Fifield, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Fifield
The canopy over the range is only the start of a kitchen extract system. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and each part collects grease. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. If you’re dealing with a system with no record of a TR19 clean and stale cooking odours from the system, we can help, from plenums and filters, extract fans and horizontal duct runs onwards. Whether you call it kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning or kitchen duct cleaning, it’s the job we do every week across Oxfordshire.
A clean in Fifield covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Fifield knowing what to expect.
- We survey the system, from your pictures or on site, canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Move anything stored near the system
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Advice
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
A TR19 certificate notes the date, the location and the technician. Keep it in the maintenance log with your fire risk assessment, so it’s to hand when an insurer, fire officer or EHO asks.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
Why act early in Fifield
Putting it off simply moves the grease further down the duct. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, which is slower to clean. Staying on a regular cycle keeps each clean manageable. A planned visit to Fifield is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.
Why book with us
- A written report with pictures after every visit
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Full insurance on every job
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover

How we price kitchen extract cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- How big the system is
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The times the site is available
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any previous report or certificate
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Then call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Fifield: your questions answered
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Fifield?
Kitchens in Fifield are inspected by West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Do you work in villages like Fifield?
Yes, Fifield is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, our work sits within an independently audited scheme. We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 too, and we’re fully insured.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19 is the benchmark used to show extract grease is under control.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote and we will typically reply within one working day.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Often, yes. With good pictures, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we cannot see enough, we arrange a survey.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Fifield
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Fifield and across Oxfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
- Fire dampers that will not close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.
