Kitchen extract cleaning near New Malden

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in New Malden and across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.

Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in New Malden

A kitchen extract system is far more than the canopy you can see. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and grease settles in every one of them. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. Typical jobs include a system with no record of a TR19 clean and an extract that no longer clears the smoke, across horizontal duct runs, extract fans and vertical risers. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from New Malden start: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.

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.

Kitchens in New Malden, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.

We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Kitchen extract cleaning in New Malden: the local picture

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 142 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 47 takeaways and sandwich shops across New Malden and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Kitchens in New Malden get their food hygiene inspections from Kingston-Upon-Thames council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. London jobs usually start after the last service, with loading and roof access agreed with the building first.

For schools such as Christ Church New Malden CofE Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. For kitchens close to New Malden station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

What affects the quote in New Malden

Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The number of sites or systems
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The condition we find in the survey

Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

We can often survey from photos. Try to include:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

If you need kitchen extract cleaning in New Malden, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.

Why it’s worth doing now in New Malden

An overdue clean in New Malden 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 work evenings, overnight and weekends so you don’t lose a service. Waiting only adds grease and risk. Planning ahead in New Malden lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Why us?

  • We diagnose before we treat
  • A written report with pictures after every visit
  • Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
  • Full insurance on every job

When to call us in New Malden

A lot of duct grease gets there because the filters let it through. Filters that are bent, badly fitted, missing or left uncleaned let more fat into the plenum and duct, and it doesn’t stop until it reaches the fan.

The symptoms we’re asked about most are:

  • Rancid smells from grease in the duct
  • Grease drips onto cooking equipment
  • A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
  • Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey

Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to New Malden is Kingston Hospital, about 1.2 miles north-west.

What to look for in a quote

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

How the job changes from site to site

Canopy and plenum

The plenum is out of sight behind the filters, so it’s easy to forget. With the filters out, the plenum is scraped and degreased.

Restaurant and pub kitchens

Losing a service isn’t an option for most restaurants and pubs. Overnight and weekend cleans keep the kitchen trading, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.

FAQs for New Malden

Which fire service covers New Malden?

That is London Fire Brigade. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in New Malden?

That is Kingston-Upon-Thames council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in New Malden. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?

Grease in an extract is a known fire risk, so many insurers want evidence it’s being cleaned to TR19. Each clean gives you a certificate and photo report to show them.

Do you work in New Malden?

Yes. We cover New Malden and the rest of Greater London, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Does the law say I must clean to TR19?

TR19® itself is not law. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19 is the benchmark used to show extract grease is under control.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

Is a quote from pictures possible?

Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

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.

Between visits

To keep the system working properly between visits:

  • Run the extract fan throughout cooking
  • Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
  • Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
  • Wash or exchange the filters often

Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after photos show each part of the system, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.

Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.

How the visit works

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Many London buildings have a managing agent, a security desk or a permit-to-work system, so tell us who to contact in New Malden.

  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. The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
  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

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
