Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Wormstone
Do you work at weekends in Wormstone?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Wormstone needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Wormstone?
Kitchens in Wormstone are inspected by Buckinghamshire council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
Every part the air passes through, as far as access allows. Sections with no access are listed on the report, and extra panels can be fitted.
What accreditations do you hold?
We are members of Vent Hygiene Elite, the scheme run by BESCA, and we clean to BESA TR19® Grease. We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 too, and we are fully insured.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Wormstone
A closed kitchen is not earning, so the timing of a clean matters. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, or during holidays where a site closes for them. With the equipment off and cool and the area sheeted, we clean and hand the kitchen back ready for the next service. If you have grease drips onto cooking equipment and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease, we can put it right. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
Most kitchens in Wormstone fall into one of BESA’s three bands: every 3 months for 12–16 hours, every 6 months for 6–12 hours and every 12 months for 2–6 hours, adjusted by what the grease readings show.
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.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Common problems we fix in Wormstone
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. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Fat running down the canopy edge
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Waddesdon Church of England School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Questions to ask before you book
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- What records you will receive afterwards
- How VAT is shown on the quote
Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.
What kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Wormstone: the local picture
Food Standards Agency data counts about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Wormstone. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Kitchens in Wormstone get their food hygiene inspections from Buckinghamshire council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Wormstone. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
A hospital like St John's Hospital, about 3.1 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Historic houses near Wormstone, such as Waddesdon Manor about 1 mile west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

What affects the quote in Wormstone
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How many systems or sites are involved
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Wormstone, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
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 isn’t missed.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Wormstone before we set off.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
