Kitchen extract cleaning across RG7: what to expect

The part of the system nobody sees is often the dirtiest. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Anything out of reach is noted in the report, and new panels can be fitted. We are often asked to deal with an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer and an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19, across vertical risers, canopies and hoods and discharge points.

There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
  2. We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
  3. After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
  4. Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.

Kitchen extracts across RG7

Across RG7, from Wokingham, Tadley and Burghfield Common 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.

In England, the Fire Safety Order puts the duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and each certificate and photo report is a record you can keep in your log book.

Burghfield Common: Bursars and site managers at schools such as Garland Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Burghfield Common, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Why act early?

Grease build-up causes everyday problems too. Filters block, airflow drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier and the fan strains to keep up. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
  • When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
  • What’s included in the scope, part by part
  • What insurance they carry

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in RG7

The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • The times the site is available

A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.

Helping us quote

Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

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.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Between visits

Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Report grease drips, smells or fan noise straight away
  • Give the canopy a daily wipe
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
  • Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log

When the clean is finished, grease readings are taken again at the same points, so you can see the difference in numbers as well as pictures. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.

Questions from RG7

When do you clean the extract?

We clean while the kitchen is closed, so evenings, overnight, early mornings and weekends are all options. We need the equipment switched off and cooled first.

Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?

As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, our work sits within an independently audited scheme. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What do you do to protect the area?

We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.

Is RG7 in your area?

Yes. Our technicians work in RG7, within the South East and London area we cover.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.

What types of premises do you cover?

Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
