In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Warbleton
Cooking sends fat-laden vapour into the canopy with every service. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That film is fuel, and cleaning the whole system is how you keep it under control. Typical jobs include a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate and an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer, on extract fans, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in Warbleton covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, so that’s where most of the work in Warbleton goes.
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. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Warbleton questions
Which council inspects kitchens in Warbleton?
That’s Wealden council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Warbleton. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you come to Warbleton after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Warbleton can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What do I get after the clean?
Every clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log so they’re to hand when an insurer asks.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we’ll survey first.
What accreditations do you hold?
Our work is to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, with certificates issued through the BESCA portal. We’ve been trading since 2009.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
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 is not missed.
Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.
Part by part
Ductwork and risers
Long flat runs of duct are where grease collects. We open access panels along the route and clean each section, recording any that cannot be reached.
Grease filters
Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Keeping them clean helps the rest of the system stay cleaner.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we clear up before we go. The timing of a visit to Warbleton is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Warbleton
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before work begins.
Asking for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.
Common problems we fix in Warbleton
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, and the layer grows a little with every meal cooked. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- Stale cooking odours from the system
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Horselunges Manor is about 4 miles south), access may need planning.
What to look for in a quote
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the figure could change on the day
