TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Tadworth

Why act early in Tadworth
Leaving the clean until the next refit does not make the grease go away. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, and that takes more work to shift. Staying on a regular cycle keeps each clean manageable. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.
Why book with us
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- Every job surveyed first

Kitchen duct cleaning in Tadworth
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Tadworth, our certificate and photo report give you that record for the maintenance log. If you’re dealing with heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and grease smells coming from the extract, we can put it right. 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. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.
Around a smaller place like Tadworth, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How we price kitchen extract cleaning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The site address and the type of premises
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Tadworth, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.
For landlords and multi-site operators
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, so you can start cooking as normal.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. BESA guidance links the minimum interval to daily cooking hours, so a change in hours may mean a change in interval, and grease readings will show it.
Tadworth kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 23 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 6 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Tadworth. Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. The fire and rescue service for Tadworth is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. 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 Tadworth get their food hygiene inspections from Reigate and Banstead council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Good Shepherd or elsewhere in Tadworth, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. For schools such as Tadworth Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Headley Court about 2 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Part by part
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. We clean after close or before opening.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by kitchen extract cleaning, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It will not put right:
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Tadworth can usually be finished without a second trip.
- 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.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Advice
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Tadworth
Who inspects food businesses in Tadworth?
