About our kitchen extract cleaning in Hatfield Peverel
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 each part collects grease. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. If you have proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history, we can help, from plenums and filters, discharge points and extract fans onwards. Some call it canopy cleaning, others extract cleaning or duct cleaning, but a proper TR19® clean in Hatfield Peverel covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, which is why a TR19® clean in Hatfield Peverel goes well beyond the canopy.
Around a smaller place like Hatfield Peverel, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Honest limits

- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link

Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
Grease that reaches the fan coats the blades and the housing. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned as part of the TR19 clean.
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 do not.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Hatfield Peverel
Do you work at weekends in Hatfield Peverel?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Hatfield Peverel needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Hatfield Peverel?
Essex County Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Hatfield Peverel. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Do you work in Hatfield Peverel?
Yes. We cover Hatfield Peverel and across Essex, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
How long will the clean take?
It takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. We will confirm the time when we quote.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Grease-filled ducts can carry fire well beyond the kitchen. Many insurers require TR19 cleaning, and may refuse or reduce a claim without proof, so keep every certificate.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
What affects the quote in Hatfield Peverel
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- What state the system is in
- How many systems or sites are involved
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Any previous report or certificate
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Leave it or put it right?
There’s no law that names TR19, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 still applies. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. Cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve done it. When a site near Hatfield Peverel shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. In a smaller place like Hatfield Peverel, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- 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.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part 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
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
