Kitchen extract cleaning across OX14: what to expect
Across OX14, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. At the finish there’s a TR19 certificate and a before and after photo report. Typical jobs include poor airflow at the canopy and a system with no record of a TR19 clean, on extract fans, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters.
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by photos or a visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

Where we work in OX14
Our kitchen extract cleaning work across OX14 takes in places such as Abingdon-on-Thames, Caldecott and Kennington and the villages in between. We cover every place we list for OX14, 16 in all, and kitchens are cleaned around their opening hours, overnight and at weekends included.
Across London and the South East, we work evenings, overnight and weekends, so sites in OX14 can keep trading.
Abingdon-on-Thames: Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Christ Church, or anywhere in Abingdon-on-Thames, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Historic houses near Abingdon-on-Thames, such as Clifton Hampden Manor about 3.5 miles south-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.
Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
- A single visit or a regular plan
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after photos show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
What the work involves, part by part
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge is where air leaves the building, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
Canopy and plenum
Whether it’s one hood or a long island canopy, every section is cleaned and recorded in the photo report before and after.
OX14 questions
Do we have to close the kitchen for the clean?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends, so you do not lose a service.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
Every part the air passes through, as far as access allows. Sections with no access are listed on the report, and extra panels can be fitted.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we usually come back within one working day. If photos are not enough, we’ll survey first.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
