When to call us in Sherfield English
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
Clients typically contact us after spotting something like this:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
Landford Manor, about 2.2 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Sherfield English; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Kitchen duct cleaning in Sherfield English
Every time food is cooked, warm vapour carries fat up into the extract. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That layer will burn, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. We are often asked to deal with a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate and grease smells coming from the extract, across discharge points, horizontal duct runs and vertical risers. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, in Sherfield English it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
In a village or hamlet like Sherfield English, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
When the clean is finished, grease readings are taken again at the same points, so you can see the difference in numbers as well as pictures. A TR19 certificate follows, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Sherfield English and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Sherfield English questions
Do you cover smaller places like Sherfield English?
Yes. Sherfield English is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Sherfield English be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Sherfield English keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
Every part the air passes through, as far as access allows. Where there aren’t enough access panels to reach a section, it’s recorded, and we can fit new ones.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
Strictly, the legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, not from TR19. TR19 is the industry benchmark for meeting that duty in a kitchen extract, and many insurers ask for proof of it.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
We are members of Vent Hygiene Elite, the scheme run by BESCA, and we clean to BESA TR19® Grease. We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 too, and we’re fully insured.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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 they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Sherfield English: the local picture

Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. The fire and rescue service for Sherfield English is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
