- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Poor airflow at the canopy
Different parts, different methods
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. Cleans are done after close, overnight or before opening.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School kitchens can look lightly used but still need a TR19 clean at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. Holidays make it simple to schedule.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Hanwell
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 grease settles in every one of them. Our clean follows the air from canopy to discharge, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The work covers horizontal duct runs, plenums and filters and vertical risers, and common reasons people get in touch are rancid smells from grease in the duct and grease dripping from the canopy or filters. Most calls from Hanwell come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Kitchens in Hanwell, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 221 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 49 takeaways across Hanwell and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. London Fire Brigade covers Hanwell. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Night work suits London kitchens, and roads and loading bays tend to be quieter too.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mellitus or anywhere around Hanwell, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Ealing Hospital (about less than half a mile west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you run a café or takeaway near Hanwell station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.

Common questions in Hanwell
Can parking be tricky for a job in Hanwell?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Hanwell?
It’s London Fire Brigade, which covers Hanwell. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
What do I get after the clean?
A TR19 certificate, plus a full photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next clean is due.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No law names TR19 directly, but the responsible person still has a legal duty under the Fire Safety Order 2005. TR19 is the standard insurers and fire officers expect, and many policies require it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hanwell
An overdue clean in Hanwell is best dealt with now rather than after the next inspection. The job takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease. Choosing the date yourself beats having a fault choose it for you.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
Why book with us
- We diagnose before we treat
- Fixed quotes, typically within one working day
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- Every visit written up, with pictures
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
Every clean ends with a photo report. It shows the system before and after, part by part, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.
Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.
What affects the quote in Hanwell
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The times the site is available
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
For landlords and multi-site operators
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
What happens on the day
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Before any visit in Hanwell, we agree where the van can stop and how equipment reaches the system.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
