Kitchen extract cleaning in Wexham Court

How it works

We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Wexham Court.

  1. You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
  2. We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
  3. On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
  4. We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
  5. Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Clear the space around the work

How to get a quote

Kitchen duct cleaning in Wexham Court

We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. We are often asked to deal with missing paperwork after a change of operator and an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer, on extract fans, plenums and filters and horizontal duct runs. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Wexham Court normally mean the kitchen extract, and that’s our main job: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.

A clean in Wexham Court covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.

Work in a small place like Wexham Court starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • Parking and loading at the site

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Helping us quote

Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it

Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Staff cleaning doesn’t 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.

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Questions from Wexham Court

Which council inspects kitchens in Wexham Court?

That is Slough council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Wexham Court. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Can a school canteen extract in Wexham Court be done out of term time?

Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 9 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Wexham Court. Just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.

What is TR19?

It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.

Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?

Because a dirty extract can spread a fire through a building. Many policies say the extract must be cleaned to TR19, and a claim may be reduced without proof, so keep every certificate.

What do you do with what you remove?

We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.

Does the law say I must clean to TR19?

The legal duty sits in the Fire Safety Order 2005 rather than in TR19 itself. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and many insurers ask for proof of it.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Wexham Court?

Grease filters are the first line of defence, and they’re often the weak point. Damaged, missing or overloaded filters let grease straight past, and from there it travels on to the fan.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
  • Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction

If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Wexham Park Hospital about within half a mile north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:

  • A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
  • Damaged duct sections that need replacing
  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work

  • Vertical risers
  • Extract fans
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Plenums and filters
  • Discharge points
  • Canopies and hoods

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.

Grease filters

Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that don’t.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:

  • Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
  • Never cook with filters missing or out of place
  • Keep grease collection points emptied

A TR19 certificate notes the date, the location and the technician. Keep it in the maintenance log with your fire risk assessment so it’s ready when anyone asks to see it.

Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, which slows build-up further down the system.
