TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Neithrop
We have been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and are fully insured. The work covers discharge points, extract fans and vertical risers, and the jobs we see most are an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19 and poor airflow at the canopy. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, in Neithrop it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
In a smaller place like Neithrop, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Neithrop
Food Standards Agency records include about 21 pubs and bars and about 9 hotels and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Neithrop. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Food hygiene inspections in Neithrop are the job of Cherwell council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Neithrop falls to Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Horton General Hospital is the nearest hospital to Neithrop, about 1.2 miles east. Broughton Castle, about 1.8 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Neithrop; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. For schools such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What the work involves, part by part
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.
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. We clean what can be reached and note anything that can’t.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.

How the visit works
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. The visit itself takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. For a place like Neithrop, we load the van from the survey notes so the work can be done in one visit where possible.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
An overdue clean in Neithrop is best dealt with now rather than after the next inspection. The job takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Common questions in Neithrop
Which fire authority looks after Neithrop?
Neithrop is in the area of Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Which environmental health team covers Neithrop?
Kitchens in Neithrop are inspected by Cherwell council’s environmental health officers. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Many insurers ask for proof of regular cleaning to TR19, and many policies require it. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?
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 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 you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?
Everything from canopy to discharge: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we cannot reach is recorded on the report.
What do I get after the clean?
A TR19 certificate and a photo report. The certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, and the report shows before and after pictures, readings, any areas not reached and the next clean date.

Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
You get a photo report after every clean. Before and after pictures show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
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.
