How the job changes from site to site
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Keynor Estate
Every time food is cooked, warm vapour carries fat up into the extract. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That layer will burn, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. We are often asked to deal with a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer and a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction, on discharge points, vertical risers and horizontal duct runs. When a restaurant in Keynor Estate asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that’s exactly what we do: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Keynor Estate: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
In a small place like Keynor Estate, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Keynor Estate
You will get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- The times the site is available
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
- Parking and loading at the site
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- A canopy that’s too small or a system that was badly designed
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers

FAQs for Keynor Estate
Which fire service covers Keynor Estate?
That’s West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can school kitchens in Keynor Estate be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Keynor Estate. You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.
What about areas you cannot get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
We clean every part the grease travels through. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where needed.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
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.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. The report lists what was cleaned, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next clean is due.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
Out of hours: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. We need the equipment cool, and we leave the kitchen ready to cook.
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.
Keynor Estate kitchens: local notes
Keynor Estate is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 4 pubs and bars in Keynor Estate and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. In Keynor Estate, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Chichester council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Where a hall near St Mary Our Lady Sidlesham, or anywhere in Keynor Estate, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Keynor Estate is St Richard's Hospital, about 5.2 miles north. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Sidlesham Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving the clean until the next refit doesn’t make the grease go away. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, which is slower to clean. Staying on a regular cycle keeps each clean manageable. Somewhere as small as Keynor Estate, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

Related advice
Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
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.
Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Switching it off early leaves vapour to settle on the canopy and plenum, and the next clean has more to do.
