TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Goddard's Green
A kitchen extract system is far more than the canopy you can see. Beyond the filters run the plenum, the ducts and risers, the fan and the point where air leaves the building, and grease settles in every one of them. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. If you have heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and grease smells coming from the extract, we can help. Whether you call it kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning or kitchen duct cleaning, it’s the job we do every week across West Berkshire.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.
In a small place like Goddard's Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Goddard's Green 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.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Goddard's Green?
The type of cooking changes the amount of grease. Frying, grilling and roasting send far more fat into the canopy than steaming or boiling, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
Clients normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Garland Junior School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they recommend a next date
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether a written report and photos are included

Goddard's Green questions
Who inspects food businesses in Goddard's Green?
That is West Berkshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Goddard's Green. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can you come to Goddard's Green after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work in Goddard's Green?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Goddard's Green included.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we’ll survey first.

Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Goddard's Green and across West Berkshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Grease, kitchens and Goddard's Green
The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Goddard's Green. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Goddard's Green sits within the area of Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Environmental health officers from West Berkshire council inspect food businesses in Goddard's Green. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Stratfield Saye House, about 3.7 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses near Goddard's Green; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Battle Hospital about 4.9 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
When the clean is finished, grease readings are taken again at the same points, so you can see the difference in numbers as well as photos. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Switching it off early leaves vapour to settle on the canopy and plenum, and the next clean has more to do.
What the work involves, part by part
Grease filters
Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that don’t.
Ductwork and risers
Bends and changes of direction trap more grease than straight runs. We test at points like these before and after cleaning, so the report shows the difference.
