TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in New Hinksey
Any kitchen we clean in New Hinksey gets exactly the same specification as everywhere else we work. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. You get a TR19 certificate and a photo report at the end. Typical jobs include a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs, across canopies and hoods, discharge points and plenums and filters. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.
Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like New Hinksey gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What a clean will not put right
Not every problem is solved by kitchen extract cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- A canopy that’s too small or a system that was badly designed
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

- Vertical risers
- Discharge points

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in New Hinksey?
How fast grease builds up depends mostly on how long the kitchen cooks each day. Under BESA guidance, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means a clean at least every 3 months, moderate use every 6 months and light use every 12. They are minimums: measured grease levels set the real interval.
Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Fat running down the canopy edge
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St John the Evangelist or elsewhere in New Hinksey, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach

What else we do in New Hinksey
Leave it or put it right?
If your kitchen in New Hinksey is past its cleaning date, it’s worth booking now. It takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we work evenings, overnight and weekends so you don’t lose a service. Waiting only adds grease and risk. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Why us?
- One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
- Survey first, then a fixed quote
- Full insurance on every job
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
You leave with a date for the next clean, based on your cooking hours and the grease we measured. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date is not missed.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Different parts, different methods
Grease filters
A filter that’s missing or bent lets grease straight past. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that do not.
Extract fan and discharge
Grease that reaches the fan coats the blades and the housing. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned as part of the TR19 clean.

In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

How it works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like New Hinksey, so let us know how to reach it.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
