About kitchen extract cleaning in KT6
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Send a few photos of the canopy and filters when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and you will have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in KT6, typically within one working day. Common call-outs are for years of baked-on grease in the ducts and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, on discharge points, canopies and hoods and vertical risers.
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
How we quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Kitchen extracts across KT6
Across KT6, from Surbiton, Chessington and Seething Wells 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.
From central London kitchens to coastal hotels and country pubs, London and the South East have every kind of site. Wherever the site is in KT6, the work is done to the same TR19® standard.
Surbiton: Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Tolworth Hospital (about 1 mile south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Commuter trade near Surbiton station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.
What we’re called out for in KT6
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Grease smells coming from the extract
What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Diarise the next clean as soon as you get the certificate
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the photos. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
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.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
What the work involves, part by part
Ductwork and risers
Horizontal runs collect grease as the air slows and cools. We open access panels along the route and clean each section, recording any that can’t be reached.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. We plan the clean around meal times and work in a contained, tidy way with as little disruption as possible.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in KT6
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
How long will the clean take?
That depends on the size of the system, the amount of grease and the number of access points. Most jobs take a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?
Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. It records what was cleaned, what wasn’t accessible and the recommended next clean date.
