About our kitchen extract cleaning in Stanhope
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Stanhope, our certificate and photo report give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. The work covers horizontal duct runs, discharge points and extract fans, and people most often call us about an extract that no longer clears the smoke and fat running down the canopy edge. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Stanhope? We’ve been cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, so that’s where most of the work in Stanhope goes.
In a smaller place like Stanhope, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, 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.

How the visit works
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system.

- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Before we arrive

Why act early in Stanhope
Environmental health officers inspect food businesses, in Stanhope as everywhere else, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters won’t go unnoticed. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster. A planned visit to Stanhope fits your hours; an emergency doesn’t.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Why us?
- Photo reports with every job
- Fixed quotes, typically within one working day
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Member of BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date isn’t missed.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Different parts, different methods
Ductwork and risers
Bends and changes of direction trap more grease than straight runs. Those are among the points where we take readings before and after, so the report shows the difference.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Losing a service is not an option for most restaurants and pubs. Overnight and weekend cleans keep the kitchen trading, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Stanhope
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
When to call us in Stanhope
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine 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. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Stale cooking odours from the system
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St. Francis or elsewhere in Stanhope, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
What your quote should include
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- What insurance they carry
FAQs for Stanhope
Which environmental health team covers Stanhope?
In Stanhope, it’s Ashford council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Stanhope?
That’s Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
How do you 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.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, our work sits within an independently audited scheme. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Often, yes. With good pictures, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Stanhope kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 15 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Stanhope. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Stanhope sits within the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. It’s Ashford council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Stanhope. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Godinton House is about 2.1 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as William Harvey Hospital (about 2.7 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
