Kitchen Extract Cleaning in Willesden Green
Kitchen extract cleaning for Willesden Green, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
When to call us in Willesden Green
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. Once it cools inside the ductwork, it condenses onto every surface it touches, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- Fat running down the canopy edge
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Andrew or anywhere around Willesden Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Willesden Green
Few kitchens can stop cooking for a day so the extract can be cleaned. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, or during holidays where a site closes for them. Equipment is switched off and left to cool, the area is sheeted, and the kitchen is handed back ready to cook. If you have missing paperwork after a change of operator and an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer, we can put it right, from vertical risers, discharge points and plenums and filters onwards. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a system that’s clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.
In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so work in Willesden Green is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Before the clean, we agree loading, parking and roof access with whoever manages the building.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

How the job changes from site to site
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.
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, and grease can collect there too. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Willesden Green
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Willesden Green and across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Why it’s worth doing now in Willesden Green
Leaving the clean until the next refit doesn’t make the grease go away. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. For a site in Willesden Green, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

- 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.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
What a clean won’t put right
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A fan motor that has burnt out
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
