Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Stockwell
Can you come to Stockwell after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Stockwell doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Does London parking affect a job in Stockwell?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit usually gets round them.
How long will the clean take?
Short systems are done in a few hours, but large systems may be spread over more than one visit. Your quote says how long to expect.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and a few pictures plus the address and your hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Stockwell?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll normally reply within one working day.
Which sectors do you work in?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Stockwell
Across Stockwell, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. You get a TR19 certificate and a photo report at the end. Typical jobs include ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and grease drips onto cooking equipment, on horizontal duct runs, canopies and hoods and vertical risers. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a system that’s clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Sections without access panels are recorded on the report, and new panels can be fitted so they’re cleaned next time.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. For a kitchen in Stockwell, that typically means a longer system to clean and more access panels to plan around.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, 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 it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. In a London area like Stockwell, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Why it’s worth doing now in Stockwell
There’s no law that names TR19, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 still applies. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, which in a kitchen includes the grease in the extract. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. Planning ahead in Stockwell lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

What affects the quote in Stockwell
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- What state the system is in
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- A few general shots of the system
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Stockwell?
In Stockwell, as anywhere, grease gathers where the air slows down: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
Commuter trade near Brixton station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.
What your quote should include
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether VAT is included
When it’s something else
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Fire dampers that will not close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How the job changes from site to site
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, each section is cleaned and photographed before and after.

A filter that’s missing or bent lets grease straight past. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that don’t.
