Kitchen extract cleaning in Roxeth, done properly
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and a claim can be refused or reduced without it. For a kitchen in Roxeth, our certificate and photo report give you that record for the maintenance log. Typical jobs include a system with no record of a TR19 clean and a kitchen taken over without any extract records, across extract fans, discharge points and plenums and filters. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Roxeth? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.
Most kitchens in Roxeth fall into one of BESA’s three bands: every 3 months for 12–16 hours, every 6 months for 6–12 hours and every 12 months for 2–6 hours, with grease readings setting the real interval.
In a London area like Roxeth, 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.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.
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.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Roxeth
Can you work in Roxeth outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Roxeth?
That’s Harrow council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Roxeth. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some photos and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Do you work in Roxeth?
Yes. Roxeth is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Roxeth?
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. They are minimums: measured grease levels set the real interval.
These are the problems we see most often:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Poor airflow at the canopy
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Christ Church, or anywhere in Roxeth, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
What your quote should include
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether a survey comes first
Why act early in Roxeth
Every week without a clean adds another layer. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 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. Planning ahead in Roxeth lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School, hospital and care home kitchens often have fixed hours and long holidays, so cleans can be booked when the kitchen is closed. The certificate and report suit estates and compliance files.
Ductwork and risers
Vertical risers carry the air up through the building, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. They’re cleaned through access points along their height.

- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
