About kitchen extract cleaning in RG25

The ducts are where most of the grease hides. We reach horizontal runs and vertical risers through access panels, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Any section we cannot reach is recorded on the report and extra access panels can be added. Common call-outs are for grease smells coming from the extract and an inspection that picked up a dirty extract, across vertical risers, canopies and hoods and extract fans.

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.

  1. We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
  2. We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
  3. On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
  4. Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
  5. We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.

Kitchen extract cleaning around RG25

In RG25, we work in places such as Overton, Viables and Hatch Warren and well beyond. Every place on our RG25 list (21 in all) is covered, and kitchens are cleaned around their opening hours, overnight and at weekends included.

Much of our work across London and the South East happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so sites in RG25 can keep trading.

Overton: If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Overton Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Overton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary or anywhere around Overton, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What the work involves, part by part

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Some healthcare kitchens never fully close. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight with as little disruption as possible.

Extract fan and discharge

The fan pulls the air through the whole system, and grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades. We isolate it, open it up and degrease it.

Multi-site and managed buildings

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in RG25 and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

When it’s something else

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • An undersized canopy or fan
  • A duct that’s holed or coming apart
  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct

What we’re called out for in RG25

Hours of cooking are the biggest factor. BESA guidance sets minimum cleaning intervals of every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours a day, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours, and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. They are minimums: measured grease levels set the real interval.

Common reasons sites call us are:

  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
  • A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
  • An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer

What affects the quote in RG25

There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • The number of sites or systems
  • The scale of the work
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle

What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote

A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

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 many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Common questions in RG25

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.

Does the law say I must clean to TR19?

The legal duty sits in the Fire Safety Order 2005 rather than in TR19 itself. In practice, TR19 is how kitchens show they’re managing grease, and many insurers ask for proof of it.

What’s TR19?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.

What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?

A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where needed.

When do you clean the extract?

We clean while the kitchen is closed, working evenings, overnight or at weekends to suit you. We need the equipment switched off and cooled first.

What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.

How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?

It takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. We will confirm the time when we quote.
