Kitchen duct cleaning in Wyke
The part of the system nobody sees is often the dirtiest. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Any section we cannot reach is recorded on the report and extra access panels can be added. If you are dealing with grease dripping from the canopy or filters and rancid smells from grease in the duct, we can put it right, from discharge points, extract fans and plenums and filters onwards. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Wyke, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. 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.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Wyke kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 6 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 5 sandwich bars and takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Wyke. Wherever food is cooked under a canopy, the extract above it gathers grease and needs cleaning on a schedule. Food hygiene inspections in Wyke are the job of Guildford council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Wyke is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
For schools such as Wyke Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you cook for passing trade around Ash station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

Work in GU12 and GU3 follows the same survey, fixed quote and written report as everywhere else we cover. You’ll find streets such as Guildford Road, Wyke Lane and Wyke Avenue, all of which we cover for kitchen extract cleaning. Close by, we work in Normandy (1 mile east), Flexford (1 mile south-east), Christmas Pie (2 miles south-east), Willey Green (2 miles east) and Wanborough (2 miles south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Guildford (5 miles east), Woking (7 miles north-east), Camberley (6 miles north), Farnham (5 miles south-west), Egham (14 miles north-east) and Walton-on-Thames (15 miles north-east).
Around Wyke
Around Wyke, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near The Dover Arms and Ash Manor School, among other places. The nearest railway station is Ash station, about 0.6 miles south-west of the centre. A little further out are Ash Museum (0.8 miles west) and Guildford Hospital (3.9 miles east). The countryside around Wyke includes Ash Ranges and Hog's Back.
Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Wyke and turn up when the site is quiet.
- 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.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Getting a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

What the work involves, part by part
Ductwork and risers
Vertical risers carry the air up through the building, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. They’re cleaned through access points along their height.
Grease filters
Baffle filters are cleaned as part of every TR19 clean, and put back so they seat correctly. Damaged ones are noted on the report.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
You get a photo report after every clean. It shows the system before and after, part by part, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Wyke?
Grease filters are the first line of defence, and they’re often the weak point. Filters that are bent, badly fitted, missing or left uncleaned let more fat into the plenum and duct, and from there it travels on to the fan.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Stale cooking odours from the system
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere in Wyke, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a survey comes first
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the price is fixed

Wyke: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers Wyke?
That is Guildford council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Wyke. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Can a school canteen extract in Wyke be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 4 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Wyke. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
Do you cover Wyke?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Wyke included.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?
That comes down mainly to daily cooking hours. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. We’ll recommend a date after measuring the grease.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What affects the quote in Wyke
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Wyke, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send pictures or your last report if you can. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.
