For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Long Ditton
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Long Ditton, typically within one working day. If you have a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease, we can put it right. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but in Long Ditton, as everywhere, the insurer wants the full system cleaned, not just the hood.
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.
London kitchens are often tucked into basements or the back of a building, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. For a kitchen in Long Ditton, that usually means a longer system to clean and more access panels to plan around.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Long Ditton
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The scale of the work
- The condition of the system
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Questions from Long Ditton
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Long Ditton?
In Long Ditton, it’s Kingston-Upon-Thames council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do you work overnight in Long Ditton?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Long Ditton keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
All of it, from the canopy through to the discharge. Sections with no access are listed on the report, and extra panels can be fitted.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?
You receive a TR19 certificate and a photo report. Certificates are issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, and the report includes before and after pictures, grease readings and the recommended next clean date.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few photos and any previous report.

What the work involves, part by part
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens often cook for long hours, frying and grilling, so their cleaning interval is often 3 or 6 months under BESA guidance. Cleans are done after close, overnight or before opening.
Grease filters
A filter that is missing or bent lets grease straight past. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that don’t.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Before any visit in Long Ditton, we agree where the van can stop and how equipment reaches the system.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Clear the space around the work
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
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.
