Our kitchen extract cleaning service in GU20
A kitchen extract system is far more than the canopy you can see. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and grease settles in every one of them. Our clean follows the air from canopy to discharge, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re often asked to deal with grease smells coming from the extract and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer, across discharge points, horizontal duct runs and extract fans.
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time.
- You send pictures or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.

What’s near Windlesham
Around Windlesham, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Gordon's School, Church of St John the Baptist and The Sun pub and the streets around them. You will also find Windlesham Village Infant School (0.7 miles north-west) and Brentmoor Heath (1.9 miles south). Windlesham’s nearest station is Bagshot station, about 1.4 miles west of the centre. A little further out are Chobham Museum (2.6 miles south-east) and Heatherwood Hospital (3.3 miles north-west). Not far away are Gracious Pond and Virginia Water Lake.
Kitchen extracts across GU20
Kitchens across GU20 cook for very different hours, from all-day town-centre sites to part-time hall and school kitchens. The right interval comes from hours of use and grease readings.
Across London and the South East, we work evenings, overnight and weekends, so sites in GU20 can keep trading.
Windlesham: Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St John the Baptist or anywhere around Windlesham, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Windlesham Village Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the pictures. A TR19 certificate follows, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How easy every part is to reach
- The scale of the work
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. 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.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What happens if it’s left?
Grease that’s left only gets thicker. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. The longer it’s left, the bigger the job becomes.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning
A lot of duct grease gets there because the filters let it through. Damaged, missing or overloaded filters let grease straight past, and it doesn’t stop until it reaches the fan.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Stale cooking odours from the system
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
GU20: your questions answered
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
That comes down mainly to daily cooking hours. BESA’s minimums run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use. Your report gives a recommended next clean date.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We normally quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
