Kitchen extraction cleaning in Goring
TR19 grease cleaning of complete kitchen extract systems, from canopy to discharge for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Goring. BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease.
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
When to call us in Goring
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. Flames from a pan or grill can be pulled into the canopy by the fan, where burning grease can carry a fire along the ducts and into other parts of the building. That is why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
What we are most often called out for:
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Thomas of Canterbury or elsewhere in Goring, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Goring
Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you have proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and missing paperwork after a change of operator, we can put it right. Need a TR19 duct cleaning contractor for Goring? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, so that’s where most of the work in Goring goes.
Around a smaller place like Goring, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Keep the baffle filters clean
The certificate records when the clean was done, where and by whom. File it with the fire risk assessment and the maintenance log, so it’s to hand when an insurer, fire officer or EHO asks.
Wipe the canopy down regularly and empty grease troughs or collection points. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Goring
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. A site near Goring typically has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Before we arrive
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Advice
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The times the site is available
- The size of the system
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- A few general shots of the system
- Any previous report or certificate
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: 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, and that 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.
Grease, kitchens and Goring
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Goring. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Environmental health officers from South Oxfordshire council inspect food businesses in Goring. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Goring is covered by Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Goring Church of England Aided Primary School or anywhere near Goring, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Basildon Park is about 1.8 miles south), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
