Common questions in Keeres Green
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Keeres Green during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Keeres Green. Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Keeres Green?
Keeres Green is in the area of Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. 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 offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
What about areas you can’t get to?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
Kitchen duct cleaning in Keeres Green
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. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you’re dealing with a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction and heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs, we can help, from plenums and filters, canopies and hoods and discharge points onwards. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Keeres Green, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork.
What can be cleaned depends on what can be reached. Sections without access panels are recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted so they’re cleaned next time.
For a kitchen in or near Keeres Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
What the work covers
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Canopies and hoods
- Vertical risers
- Discharge points
- Extract fans
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- What state the system is in
- The number of sites or systems
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Keeres Green knowing what to expect.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Related advice
What we’re called out for in Keeres Green
The reason for all this is fire. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, where burning grease can carry a fire along the ducts and into other parts of the building. That’s why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Rodings Primary School or anywhere near Keeres Green, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date is not missed.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. A filter that’s clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
