Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Lisson Grove
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with photos of the canopy and filters, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Lisson Grove, normally within one working day. The work covers vertical risers, extract fans and plenums and filters, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19 and rancid smells from grease in the duct. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Lisson Grove? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.
In a London area like Lisson Grove, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What affects the quote in Lisson Grove
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your last certificate, test record or report
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. Holidays make it simple to schedule.
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Lisson Grove
Which environmental health team covers Lisson Grove?
Kitchens in Lisson Grove are inspected by Westminster council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can the work in Lisson Grove be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Lisson Grove keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Each clean gives you a certificate and photo report to show them.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before work begins.
When something else is needed
Kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
What the work covers
- Extract fans
- Horizontal duct runs
- Discharge points
- Vertical risers
- Canopies and hoods
- Plenums and filters
Keeping the system healthy
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Lisson Grove.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
