Kitchen extract cleaning across Newbury's

Kitchen extract cleaning in Newbury's, done properly

The canopy over the range is only the start of a kitchen extract system. Beyond the filters run the plenum, the ducts and risers, the fan and the point where air leaves the building, and each part collects grease. Our clean follows the air from canopy to discharge, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. If you have grease drips onto cooking equipment and an extract that no longer clears the smoke, we can help, from plenums and filters, extract fans and horizontal duct runs onwards. Kitchens in Newbury's book us for TR19 cleaning for three reasons: the insurer asked, the EHO asked, or the canopy is dripping. We handle the clean and the paperwork in one visit.

BESA sets minimum intervals by hours of cooking a day: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and yearly for light use, adjusted by what the grease readings show.

In a small place like Newbury's, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The number of sites or systems
  • The times the site is available
  • The scale of the work

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

Helping us quote

What to send for a quote:

  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

How the visit works

There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Newbury's run smoothly.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
  2. Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
  3. After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
  4. Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand

Getting a quote

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Advice

When something else is needed

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains
  • Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that is for a ductwork contractor)

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What the work covers

  • Discharge points
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Plenums and filters
  • Extract fans
  • Vertical risers
  • Canopies and hoods

Why it’s worth doing now in Newbury's

If your kitchen in Newbury's is past its cleaning date, it’s worth booking now. It takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system, and we work evenings, overnight and weekends so you do not lose a service. Waiting only adds grease and risk. A planned visit to Newbury's is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Different parts, different methods

Restaurant and pub kitchens

Losing a service is not an option for most restaurants and pubs. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. We plan the clean around meal times and work in a contained, tidy way, so residents and patients are not disturbed.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:

  • Give the canopy a daily wipe
  • Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
  • File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
  • Wash or exchange the filters often

After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the pictures. A TR19 certificate follows, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Newbury's

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs in Newbury's and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Fire safety in Newbury's falls to East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Environmental health officers from Wealden council inspect food businesses in Newbury's. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

Church and community hall kitchens, near Rehoboth Chapel or anywhere around Newbury's, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Newbury's (Wadhurst Castle is about 1.5 miles south-west), fitting access panels needs care. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Ticehurst House Hospital (about 2.9 miles south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Common questions in Newbury's

Can the work in Newbury's be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Newbury's needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Newbury's during the holidays?

Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Newbury's. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.

What do you do with what you remove?

It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.

How long does a kitchen extract clean take?

Allow a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. The survey tells us how long your system will need.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.

How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?

It depends on how many hours a day the kitchen cooks. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. We’ll recommend a date after measuring the grease.

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

The whole system: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we can’t reach is recorded on the report.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
