Kitchen Extract Cleaning in Pedlinge
Professional kitchen extract cleaning in and around Pedlinge, booked around your opening hours and finished with a written report and pictures.
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Stale cooking odours from the system
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Pedlinge
Across Pedlinge, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. 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. If you have extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and poor airflow at the canopy, we can put it right, from plenums and filters, canopies and hoods and extract fans onwards. When a restaurant in Pedlinge asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is our main job: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and readings afterwards go into your report.
For a kitchen in or near Pedlinge, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Leave it or put it right?
Grease that is left only gets thicker. BESA guidance says the mean should not go above 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. The longer it’s left, the bigger the job becomes. In a place like Pedlinge, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A broken extract fan that will not run
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover

How we price kitchen extract cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.
What we’re called out for in Pedlinge
What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, so two kitchens with the same hours can need very different intervals.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
If you cook for passing trade around Sandling station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.
What to look for in a quote
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether a written report and pictures are included

How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Pedlinge knowing what to expect.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

When the kitchen is closed, at whatever time suits you. The equipment is switched off and left to cool, and we hand the kitchen back ready for the next service.
