How kitchen extract cleaning works in KT4

Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with photos of the canopy and filters, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in KT4, usually within one working day. The work covers discharge points, plenums and filters and vertical risers, and the jobs we see most are cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease.

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system.

  1. We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
  2. We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
  3. On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
  4. The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
  5. Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

What you will pay

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Getting a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Kitchen extracts across KT4

Across KT4, from North Cheam, Worcester Park and Stoneleigh outwards, kitchens range from town-centre restaurants and takeaways to pubs, hotels, schools and care homes. Each extract is cleaned to the same TR19® standard, canopy to discharge.

We work across London and the South East, and KT4 is part of that area. Every job is surveyed first and quoted at a fixed price, wherever it is in KT4.

Worcester Park: A kitchen near Worcester Park station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Church and community hall kitchens, near Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin or anywhere around Worcester Park, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What your team can do, and what needs us

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Why it fails

The type of cooking changes the amount of grease. Frying, grilling and roasting send far more fat into the canopy than steaming or boiling, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.

Clients usually contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Stale cooking odours from the system
  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history

Why deal with it now?

TR19® is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, which in a kitchen includes the grease in the extract. Cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve done it.

Questions to ask before you book

  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • If they look at the system before pricing

Part by part

Restaurant and pub kitchens

A pub or restaurant cannot afford to cancel a service for a clean. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. Holidays make it simple to schedule.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • The condition of the system
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

Helping us quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

If you need kitchen extract cleaning in KT4, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in KT4

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.

Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?

Because a dirty extract can spread a fire through a building. Many policies say the extract must be cleaned to TR19, and a claim may be reduced without proof, so keep every certificate.

Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?

All of it, from the canopy through to the discharge. Where there are not enough access panels to reach a section, it’s recorded, and we can fit new ones.

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 do to protect the area?

By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.

What is TR19?

A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.

Will the clean disrupt our service?

We clean while the kitchen is closed, so evenings, overnight, early mornings and weekends are all options. Equipment needs to be off and cool before work begins.
