Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Milton Regis

Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That layer will burn, and cleaning the whole system is how you keep it under control. If you’re dealing with grease dripping from the canopy or filters and an inspection that picked up a dirty extract, we can help. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Milton Regis, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Kent.

We clean every reachable part of the system in Milton Regis: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.

For a kitchen in or near Milton Regis, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Looking after it afterwards

So the system stays in good health:

  • Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
  • File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
  • Give the canopy a daily wipe

The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.

Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.

What we do, step by step

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, which takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Milton Regis.

  1. You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
  2. We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
  3. On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
  4. We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
  5. Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Move anything stored near the system

How to get a quote

Questions from Milton Regis

Who inspects food businesses in Milton Regis?

The local authority for Milton Regis is Swale council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Do you cover smaller places like Milton Regis?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?

We clean every part the grease travels through. Canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge are all included, reached through access panels where needed.

What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.

What happens to the waste?

It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.

What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?

Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and 12-monthly for light use. Grease readings can show a shorter interval is needed.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Milton Regis

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.

What staff can safely do

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.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Why deal with it now?

TR19® isn’t law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. The responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. If the system at a site near Milton Regis fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Each visit written up, with photos
  • We diagnose before we treat
  • One number for every site across the South East and London
  • Trading since 2009

When to call us in Milton Regis

The type of cooking changes the amount of grease. Frying, grilling and roasting send far more fat into the canopy than steaming or boiling, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.

What we’re most often called out for:

  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
  • Grease smells coming from the extract
  • Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Sunny Bank Primary School or anywhere near Milton Regis, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
