How we price kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The postcode and the type of business
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Kitchen duct cleaning in Tokyngton
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you are dealing with grease dripping from the canopy or filters and a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history, we can put it right. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a system that is clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
A clean in Tokyngton covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
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. In Tokyngton, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Tokyngton
Food Standards Agency data counts about 246 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 251 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Tokyngton, up to about a mile and a half out. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading is not affected. Tokyngton is covered by London Fire Brigade. 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.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Michael the Archangel, or anywhere in Tokyngton, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Elsley Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Tokyngton questions
Which fire authority looks after Tokyngton?
That is London Fire Brigade. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can you come to Tokyngton after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Tokyngton?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve dealt with extract grease.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
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.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Tokyngton?
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. Once it cools inside the ductwork, it condenses onto every surface it touches, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
A hospital like Neasden Hospital, about 0.7 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
What to look for in a quote
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether VAT is included
- Proof of insurance
Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Wash or exchange the filters often
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date isn’t missed.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. A filter that’s clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
Why it’s worth doing now in Tokyngton
After a fire, one of the first questions is often when the extract was last cleaned. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A certificate in the file answers that question. A building in Tokyngton may have flats or offices above and alongside, and a fault in the system can affect them too.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

How it works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system, and we clear up before we go. If your building in Tokyngton has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Ask for a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
