Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Outwood
A closed kitchen isn’t earning, so the timing of a clean matters. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, or between services where the kitchen has a gap. With the equipment off and cool and the area sheeted, we clean and hand the kitchen back ready for the next service. We are often asked to deal with grease dripping from the canopy or filters and years of baked-on grease in the ducts, on extract fans, discharge points and canopies and hoods. Some call it canopy cleaning, others extract cleaning or duct cleaning, but a proper TR19® clean in Outwood covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Outwood: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
In a village or hamlet like Outwood, 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.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Leave it or put it right?
An overdue clean in Outwood is best dealt with now rather than after the next inspection. It takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease. It’s simpler to plan the work at Outwood now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.
Why us?
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Every visit written up, with photos
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- Every job surveyed first

How it works
The visit has three parts: 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 pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Outwood can be planned properly.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Related advice
What we’re called out for in Outwood
A kitchen in Outwood builds up grease in the same places as any other: in long flat runs, at bends and changes of direction, and in the fan housing. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere in Outwood, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What your quote should include
- When the next visit should be, and why
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
Kitchen extract cleaning in Outwood: the local picture
The fire and rescue service for Outwood is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. We cover Outwood, about 21 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as East Surrey Hospital (about 2.9 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Oakwood School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Outwood is about 3 miles east of Horley, in Surrey. Whatever kind of site you run in Outwood, we can take on kitchen extract cleaning. Visits can be booked for evenings, overnight or weekends so the site keeps running. 395 places in Surrey are on our list, from busy centres to quieter spots.

Different parts, different methods
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Institutional kitchens tend to cook to set hours, so cleans can be booked when the kitchen is closed. The certificate and report suit estates and compliance files.
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that cannot.
What affects the quote in Outwood
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The postcode and the type of business
- A few general shots of the system
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Looking after it afterwards
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
You leave with a date for the next clean, based on your cooking hours and the grease we measured. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date is not missed.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. BESA guidance links the minimum interval to daily cooking hours, so a change in hours may mean a change in interval, and grease readings will show it.
Questions from Outwood
