About our kitchen extract cleaning in Tye Green
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and a claim can be refused or reduced without it. For a kitchen in Tye Green, our certificate and photo report give you that record for the maintenance log. Common call-outs are for heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and grease smells coming from the extract, on canopies and hoods, plenums and filters and vertical risers. Kitchens in Tye Green book us for TR19 cleaning for three reasons: the insurer asked, the EHO asked, or the canopy is dripping. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
Most kitchens in Tye Green fall into one of BESA’s three bands: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and yearly for light use, with grease readings setting the real interval.
In a village or hamlet like Tye Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. 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 to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Tye Green: your questions answered
Can the work in Tye Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Tye Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Tye Green?
It’s Essex County Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Tye Green. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Is Tye Green in your area?
Yes. Tye Green is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Tye Green
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 4 pubs and bars within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Tye Green. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Environmental health officers from Braintree council inspect food businesses in Tye Green. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Tye Green falls to Essex County 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.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Cressing Primary School or anywhere near Tye Green, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Barnabas or elsewhere in Tye Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Tye Green.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- 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.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
How to get a quote
We don’t publish a 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, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. That’s part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Why deal with it now?
TR19® is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, which in a kitchen includes the grease in the extract. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

When something else is needed
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Discharge points
- Horizontal duct runs
- Canopies and hoods
- Vertical risers
- Plenums and filters
- Extract fans
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Tye Green?
We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. The usual reason is a lack of access panels, so nobody could get to them. That hidden grease keeps building where nobody looks.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
If you run a café or takeaway near Cressing station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether a survey comes first
Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge is where air leaves the building, and grease can collect there too. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight with as little disruption as possible.
