Kitchen extract cleaning in Lower Nazeing, done properly
The ducts are where most of the grease hides. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, removing thick grease by hand, then using degreasers, hot water or steam to suit the deposit. Any section we can’t reach is recorded on the report and extra access panels can be added. If you have years of baked-on grease in the ducts and an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer, we can put it right, from horizontal duct runs, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters onwards. Some call it canopy cleaning, others extract cleaning or duct cleaning, but in Lower Nazeing, as everywhere, the insurer wants the full system cleaned, not just the hood.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Lower Nazeing: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
For a smaller kitchen near Lower Nazeing, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What else we do in Lower Nazeing
The process
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Lower Nazeing can usually be finished without a second trip.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before we start.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

When to call us in Lower Nazeing
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. Once it cools inside the ductwork, it condenses onto every surface it touches, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
School kitchens, at schools like Nazeing Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
What your quote should include
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Proof of insurance
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Why it’s worth doing now in Lower Nazeing
If your kitchen in Lower Nazeing is past its cleaning date, it’s worth booking now. The job takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system, and we work evenings, overnight and weekends so you don’t lose a service. Waiting only adds grease and risk. A planned visit to Lower Nazeing fits your hours; an emergency doesn’t.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Lower Nazeing questions
Do you work in villages like Lower Nazeing?
Yes, Lower Nazeing is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which council inspects kitchens in Lower Nazeing?
Food hygiene inspections in Lower Nazeing are carried out by Epping Forest council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, so many insurers want evidence it’s being cleaned to TR19. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What accreditations do you hold?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
What do I get 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.
Kitchen extracts in Lower Nazeing

Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Kitchens in Lower Nazeing get their food hygiene inspections from Epping Forest council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
