Pyrford Green: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Pyrford Green?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Pyrford Green included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who inspects food businesses in Pyrford Green?
Kitchens in Pyrford Green are inspected by Woking council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
Length of duct, grease levels and access all affect it. Most jobs take one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What is TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we typically come back within one working day. If photos aren’t enough, we will survey first.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Pyrford Green
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers extract fans, discharge points and canopies and hoods, and the jobs we see most are a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate and an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer. Most calls from Pyrford Green come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Pyrford Green: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
In a village or hamlet like Pyrford Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Leave it or put it right?
If there’s a fire and the extract hasn’t been cleaned, the paperwork becomes the problem. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. A fault that closes a site in a village like Pyrford Green affects everyone who depends on it.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Pyrford Green
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
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’re happy to quote for all of it.
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Pyrford Green
Look up Pyrford Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 14 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 3 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Pyrford Green. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. In Pyrford Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Woking council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Fire safety in Pyrford Green falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
A hospital like Woking Community Hospital, about 2.6 miles west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Pyrford Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Pyrford Green, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

When it’s something else
Kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Canopies and hoods
- Discharge points
- Extract fans
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Vertical risers
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Pyrford Green.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Related advice
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Pyrford Green?
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, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
Byfleet Manor, about 1.7 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses near Pyrford Green; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
