What affects the quote in Turners Hill
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The condition we find in the survey
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Turners Hill
We have been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers vertical risers, extract fans and plenums and filters, and the jobs we see most are grease dripping from the canopy or filters and years of baked-on grease in the ducts. Most calls from Turners Hill come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Common problems we fix in Turners Hill
We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. Most of the time it’s because there were never enough access panels, so nobody could get to them. That hidden grease keeps building where nobody looks.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Turners Hill is Queen Victoria Hospital, about 4.3 miles north-east.
What your quote should include
- What paperwork you get at the end
- What insurance they carry
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Turners Hill can be planned properly.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before we start.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Advice
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, so you can start cooking as normal.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
Leave it or put it right?
TR19® is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. The responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. Cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve done it. With notice, the visit to Turners Hill can be fitted around your bookings and events.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Turners Hill kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 takeaways in and around Turners Hill, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Kitchens in Turners Hill get their food hygiene inspections from Mid Sussex council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Turners Hill is covered by West Sussex 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.
For schools such as Turners Hill CofE 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 Leonard or elsewhere in Turners Hill, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
