Kitchen extraction cleaning in Stonebridge Green
Kitchen extract cleaning in Stonebridge Green from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
How the visit works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. The timing of a visit to Stonebridge Green is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

About our kitchen extract cleaning in Stonebridge Green
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Send a few photos of the canopy and filters when you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Stonebridge Green, normally within one working day. Typical jobs include grease smells coming from the extract and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease, across plenums and filters, discharge points and extract fans. When a restaurant in Stonebridge Green asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is our main job: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
For a kitchen in or near Stonebridge Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

How we price kitchen extract cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Why deal with it now?
Putting it off simply moves the grease further down the duct. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. A planned visit to Stonebridge Green is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.
Where we work
- Horizontal duct runs
- Discharge points
- Vertical risers
- Plenums and filters
- Extract fans
- Canopies and hoods
Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, and grease can collect there too. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
A pub or restaurant cannot afford to cancel a service for a clean. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Stonebridge Green: the local picture
Kitchens in Stonebridge Green get their food hygiene inspections from Ashford council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. About 41 miles out from central London, Stonebridge Green is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Godinton House is about 5 miles south-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. For schools such as Egerton Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St James or elsewhere in Stonebridge Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Stonebridge Green is about 7 miles north-west of Ashford, in Kent. Stonebridge Green gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where necessary and a written report with photos. 922 places in Kent are on our list, large and small. We also work in Maidstone, around 10 miles away.

Stonebridge Green: your questions answered
Is Stonebridge Green within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you work at weekends in Stonebridge Green?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
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.
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.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?
Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Measured grease levels set the real interval.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
TR19® itself is not law. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19 is the benchmark used to show extract grease is under control.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Kent. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
