How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Goodmayes
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Goodmayes, our certificate and photo report give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. If you are dealing with an inspection that picked up a dirty extract and a system with no record of a TR19 clean, we can help, from horizontal duct runs, vertical risers and extract fans onwards. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Goodmayes, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Greater London.
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.
London kitchens tend to trade late and open early, so work in Goodmayes is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Before the clean, we agree loading, parking and roof access with whoever manages the building.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How it 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 anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. Most London sites cannot stop for the day, so work in Goodmayes is typically done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.
- You send pictures or we visit, and the system is surveyed from 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.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
How to get a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
What a clean won’t put right
Kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It does not solve:
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Horizontal duct runs
- Extract fans
- Vertical risers
- Canopies and hoods
- Plenums and filters
- Discharge points
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The scale of the work
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- What state the system is in
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Grease, kitchens and Goodmayes
Food Standards Agency records include about 16 pubs and bars within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Goodmayes. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. London Fire Brigade covers Goodmayes. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Most London extract cleaning happens at night, after the last service.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Goodmayes Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Commuter trade near Goodmayes station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.

Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy catches the vapour, and the plenum behind the filters is where it first condenses. We clean both inside and out, with the filter housing cleaned too.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Goodmayes questions
Can you work in Goodmayes outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Goodmayes out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. The FSA’s register shows about 55 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Goodmayes. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Is Goodmayes in your area?
Yes. We work in Goodmayes and across Greater London, within our South East and London area. To book, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
Strictly, the legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, not from TR19. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and an insurer may refuse or reduce a claim without it.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
We clean every part the grease travels through. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where needed.
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
Any section without access is marked on the report. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, which slows build-up further down the system.

Other services in Goodmayes
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Goodmayes?
A kitchen in Goodmayes builds up grease in the same places as any other: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Poor airflow at the canopy
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Goodmayes is Goodmayes Hospital, about 0.9 miles north.
