TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Hatchford
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. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. Typical jobs include heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and a system with no record of a TR19 clean, on extract fans, vertical risers and horizontal duct runs. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Hatchford? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Work in a small place like Hatchford starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Hatchford
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Hatchford?
Surrey Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Hatchford. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Which environmental health team covers Hatchford?
That’s Elmbridge council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hatchford. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Hatchford
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 pubs, bars and clubs within about 1.5 miles of central Hatchford. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. The fire and rescue service for Hatchford is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Food hygiene inspections in Hatchford are the job of Elmbridge council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Woking Community Hospital about 5.3 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Bursars and site managers at schools such as St Matthew's CofE Aided Infant School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What affects the quote in Hatchford
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The scale of the work
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Hatchford can be planned properly.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Part by part
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Losing a service isn’t an option for most restaurants and pubs. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.

What else we do in Hatchford
What we are called out for in Hatchford
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hatchford (Byfleet Manor is about 2.1 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care.
