Kitchen extract cleaning in Ryeish Green, done properly
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers extract fans, discharge points and horizontal duct runs, and the jobs we see most are ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and fat running down the canopy edge. Need a TR19 duct cleaning contractor for Ryeish Green? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member.
A clean in Ryeish Green covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
For a kitchen in or near Ryeish Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. 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.

Common questions in Ryeish Green
Can the work in Ryeish Green be done at night or at weekends?
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’ll book within them.
Can school kitchens in Ryeish Green be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Around Ryeish Green, the Food Standards Agency lists about 4 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before work begins.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
You get both a certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log, ready for your insurer or an inspection.
Do you cover Ryeish Green?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Ryeish Green.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
That comes down mainly to daily cooking hours. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. We’ll recommend a date after measuring the grease.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?
Length of duct, grease levels and access all affect it. As a guide, it takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.
Ryeish Green kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 12 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Ryeish Green. Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Ryeish Green. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Kitchens in Ryeish Green get their food hygiene inspections from Wokingham council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Stratfield Saye House, about 4 miles south, is one of the historic houses near Ryeish Green; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Michael and All Angels or elsewhere in Ryeish Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Ryeish Green is Royal Berkshire Hospital, about 3.3 miles north.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ryeish Green
Leaving the clean until the next refit doesn’t make the grease go away. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. It’s simpler to plan the work at Ryeish Green now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- A few general shots of the system
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Need a price for kitchen extract cleaning? Please call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before anything is booked.
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.
What the work covers
- Vertical risers
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Canopies and hoods
- Discharge points
- Extract fans
Between visits
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.
Keep the fan on throughout service. Switching it off early leaves vapour to settle on the canopy and plenum, and the next clean has more to do.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What we do, step by step
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Somewhere like Ryeish Green, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.

Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
The fan pulls the air through the whole system, and grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned as part of the TR19 clean.
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
