About our kitchen extract cleaning in Little Bromley
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just phone 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 Little Bromley, normally within one working day. The work covers extract fans, canopies and hoods and vertical risers, and the jobs we see most are grease dripping from the canopy or filters and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer. When a restaurant in Little Bromley asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that’s our main job: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
For a kitchen in or near Little Bromley, 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.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the kitchen extract cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Little Bromley can be planned properly.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- A fan motor that has burnt out
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
What the work covers
- Discharge points
- Vertical risers
- Extract fans
- Horizontal duct runs
- Canopies and hoods
- Plenums and filters
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
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 ready when anyone asks to see it.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.

Part by part
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. We clean after close or before opening.
Grease filters
A filter that is missing or bent lets grease straight past. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that do not.
Little Bromley questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Little Bromley?
That is Tendring council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Little Bromley. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Is kitchen extract cleaning any different in a coastal place like Little Bromley?
It can, as Little Bromley is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where necessary.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Why it’s worth doing now in Little Bromley
Any food business in Little Bromley can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters will not go unnoticed. A clean extract is one less thing to worry about on the day. In a place like Little Bromley, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

- In business since 2009

Grease, kitchens and Little Bromley
Little Bromley lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. Little Bromley sits within the area of Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Kitchens in Little Bromley get their food hygiene inspections from Tendring council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Castle House is about 3 miles north-west), access may need planning. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Manningtree High School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Mary the Virgin's Church or elsewhere in Little Bromley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
