Our kitchen extract cleaning service in KT20
A closed kitchen isn’t earning, so the timing of a clean matters. 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. The work covers horizontal duct runs, discharge points and vertical risers, and common reasons people get in touch are a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction and a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history.
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Pricing in KT20
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Where we work in KT20
In KT20, a busy kitchen in a place such as Tadworth, Great Burgh and Kingswood and a quiet village kitchen need very different cleaning intervals. The right interval comes from hours of use and grease readings.
Across England, including KT20, the responsible person has a legal duty to assess and reduce fire risk, and each certificate and photo report is a record you can keep in your log book.
Tadworth: If you cook for passing trade around Tadworth station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer. School kitchens, at schools like Tadworth Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the pictures. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. 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.
Part by part
Ductwork and risers
Long flat runs of duct are where grease collects. We open access panels along the route and clean each section, recording any that cannot be reached.
Extract fan and discharge
Attenuators, where fitted, can soak up grease and need attention. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.
When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The scale of the work
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning
A kitchen in KT20 builds up grease in the same places as any other: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
FAQs for KT20
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
Strictly, the legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, not from TR19. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and many insurers ask for proof of it.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before we start.
