Kitchen extract cleaning in Queen's Park

How the job changes from site to site

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. School holidays are an easy time to do it.

Restaurant and pub kitchens

Losing a service isn’t an option for most restaurants and pubs. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.

How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Queen's Park

The canopy over the range is only the start of a kitchen extract system. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and each part collects grease. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. The work covers extract fans, discharge points and canopies and hoods, and the jobs we see most are a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer and fat running down the canopy edge. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Queen's Park? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.

What can be cleaned depends on what can be reached. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.

In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so extract cleaning in Queen's Park is normally done overnight, after the last service. Before the clean, we agree loading, parking and roof access with whoever manages the building.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
  • Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
  • File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit

The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, and equipment can be switched back on once we have gone.

Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.

Common questions in Queen's Park

Which environmental health team covers Queen's Park?

In Queen's Park, it’s Westminster council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Which fire service covers Queen's Park?

London Fire Brigade is the fire and rescue service for Queen's Park. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.

Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?

Grease in an extract is a known fire risk, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Each clean gives you a certificate and photo report to show them.

Does the law say I must clean to TR19?

TR19® itself isn’t law. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve dealt with extract grease.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.

Which parts of the extract do you clean?

Everything from canopy to discharge: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Any part without access is noted.

What types of premises do you cover?

All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?

We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

When something else is needed

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • A grease trap that needs emptying
  • Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
  • Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What the work covers

  • Canopies and hoods
  • Plenums and filters
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Extract fans
  • Vertical risers
  • Discharge points

How it works

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 it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Queen's Park is no exception.

  1. First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
  2. We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
  3. After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
  4. The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

Related advice

Why act early in Queen's Park

Grease build-up causes everyday problems too. Blocked filters and narrowed ducts slow the airflow, leaving the kitchen hot and smoky and the fan strains to keep up. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow. Every month a London system goes without attention adds to what has to be done later.

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Take a look at what affects the cost or our accreditations and certificates.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:

  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Site rules, permits and inductions

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.

Asking for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Any previous report or certificate

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Queen's Park kitchens: local notes

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 793 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 174 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Queen's Park. Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. In Queen's Park, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Westminster council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Queen's Park falls to London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

Commuter trade near Queens Park (London) station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Paddington General Hospital (about 0.8 miles south), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Luke's CofE Primary School or anywhere near Queen's Park, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
