Greater London · Kitchen extract cleaning
Kitchen extract cleaning in Pinner Green, Greater London
Kitchen extract cleaning for Pinner Green, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
How the job changes from site to site
Canopy and plenum
Grease meets the system first at the canopy and the plenum behind the filters. Both are scraped and degreased inside and out, with the filter housing cleaned too.
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. We clean what can be reached and note anything that cannot.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Pinner Green
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. The certificate and photo report from each clean in Pinner Green give you that record for the maintenance log. The work covers extract fans, horizontal duct runs and canopies and hoods, and the jobs we see most are proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and a kitchen taken over without any extract records. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Pinner Green, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Greater London.
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 readings afterwards go into your report.
In a London area like Pinner Green, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
Every clean ends with a photo report. It shows the system before and after, part by part, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Wipe the canopy down regularly and empty grease troughs or collection points. A daily wipe is not a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
What happens on the day
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. In Pinner Green, as across London, we normally work overnight or at weekends and hand the site back ready to open.
- 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.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving the clean until the next refit doesn’t make the grease go away. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, and that takes more work to shift. Staying on a regular cycle keeps each clean manageable. Choosing the date yourself beats having a fault choose it for you.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
- The times the site is available
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Common problems we fix in Pinner Green
How fast grease builds up depends mostly on how long the kitchen cooks each day. Under BESA guidance, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means a clean at least every 3 months, moderate use every 6 months and light use every 12. Those are minimums, and grease readings can show a kitchen needs cleaning sooner.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Pinner Green is Northwood and Pinner Cottage Hospital, about 0.9 miles north-west.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Pinner Green
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Kitchen extracts in Pinner Green
Look up Pinner Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 152 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 63 takeaways and sandwich shops in Pinner Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. London jobs typically start after the last service, with loading and roof access agreed with the building first. Fire safety in Pinner Green falls to London Fire Brigade. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Pinner Green (Headstone Manor is about 1.7 miles east), fitting access panels needs care. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Christian Science Church or elsewhere in Pinner Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Pinner Green: your questions answered
Can you come to Pinner Green after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Pinner Green?
In Pinner Green, it’s Harrow council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
What about areas you cannot get to?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
All of it, from the canopy through to the discharge. Where there are not enough access panels to reach a section, it’s recorded, and we can fit new ones.
Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 sit alongside that, and we are fully insured.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
