What kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix
Kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- A fan motor that has burnt out
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Fulking questions
Do you work in villages like Fulking?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you work in Fulking outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Fulking keeps running as normal. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Many policies require TR19 cleaning, and insurers often ask to see the certificate. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Fulking
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
What staff can safely do
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.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Why it’s worth doing now in Fulking
If there’s a fire and the extract hasn’t been cleaned, the paperwork becomes the problem. Many policies require cleaning to TR19, and an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof. A certificate in the file answers that question. Somewhere as small as Fulking, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Why Fulking businesses choose us
- We diagnose before we treat
- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- One number for every site across the South East and London

Kitchen extract cleaning in Fulking: the local picture
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 6 pubs and bars within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Fulking. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service covers Fulking. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Mid Sussex council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fulking. 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 run a church or community hall kitchen, near The Church of the Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Fulking, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Southlands Hospital (about 3.7 miles south), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Fulking
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. Once it cools inside the ductwork, it condenses onto every surface it touches, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Portslade Manor is about 3.3 miles south), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
