The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Nutfield, let us know and we will plan around 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Nutfield
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. Typical jobs include an extract that no longer clears the smoke and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, on extract fans, plenums and filters and vertical risers. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Nutfield, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
In a village or hamlet like Nutfield, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Grease, kitchens and Nutfield
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 4 pubs, bars and clubs within about 1.5 miles of central Nutfield. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers Nutfield. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. It’s Tandridge council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Nutfield. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Nutfield Church CofE Primary School or anywhere near Nutfield, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. For kitchens close to Nutfield station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

When to call us in Nutfield
We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. Most of the time it’s because there were never enough access panels, so those sections were never reached. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
Where a hall near Church of St Peter and St Paul, or anywhere in Nutfield, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

What else we do in Nutfield
Different parts, different methods
Ductwork and risers
Vertical risers carry the air up through the building, and grease runs down their walls and pools at the base. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that cannot.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How big the system is
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
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 the price is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Nutfield, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Nutfield
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Nutfield?
The local authority for Nutfield is Tandridge council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you work in Nutfield outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Nutfield keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Grease-filled ducts can carry fire well beyond the kitchen. Many policies say the extract must be cleaned to TR19, and a claim may be reduced without proof, so keep every certificate.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
We clean every part the grease travels through. Canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge are all included, reached through access panels where necessary.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
