Multi-site and managed buildings

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Tottenham Green, done properly

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. The certificate and photo report from each clean in Tottenham Green give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. We’re often asked to deal with proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, on extract fans, vertical risers and plenums and filters. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Tottenham Green start: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.

Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Tottenham Green goes well beyond the canopy.

Kitchens in Tottenham Green, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Tottenham Green kitchens: local notes

The FSA’s data shows about 35 pubs and bars registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Tottenham Green. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Food hygiene inspections in Tottenham Green are the job of Haringey council’s environmental health team. 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. London jobs usually start after the last service, with loading and roof access agreed with the building first.

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as North Middlesex University Hospital (about 1.9 miles north), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of Holy Trinity, or anywhere in Tottenham Green, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

Questions from Tottenham Green

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Tottenham Green?

In Tottenham Green, it’s Haringey council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Tottenham Green?

Fire safety enforcement in Tottenham Green is handled by London Fire Brigade. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.

How much notice do you need?

It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

Is a quote from pictures possible?

Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we usually come back within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we’ll survey first.

Do you work in Tottenham Green?

Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, Tottenham Green included.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.

How it works

Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the kitchen extract cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. In a London area like Tottenham Green, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.

  1. We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
  2. Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
  3. With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
  4. Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
  5. We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.

How to prepare

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Clear the space around the work

Leave it or put it right?

A clogged extract does not only raise the fire risk. Blocked filters and narrowed ducts slow the airflow, leaving the kitchen hot and smoky, while the fan works harder to move less air. Grease drips, smells and condensation are common next. Choosing the date yourself beats having a fault choose it for you.

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 we start.

What the work involves, part by part

Ductwork and risers

Grease builds up most where the duct turns. Those are among the points where we take readings before and after, so the report shows the difference.

Extract fan and discharge

The fan pulls the air through the whole system, and grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned as part of the TR19 clean.

Common problems we fix in Tottenham Green

In Tottenham Green, as anywhere, grease gathers where the air slows down: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. The cooler the duct, the more grease drops out of the air.

The symptoms we’re asked about most are:

  • Grease drips onto cooking equipment
  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
  • An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
  • An extract that no longer clears the smoke

For schools such as Earlsmead Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
  • What hours they’ll be on site
  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
