How kitchen extract cleaning works in SS8
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 SS8, usually within one working day. The work covers plenums and filters, horizontal duct runs and canopies and hoods, and people most often call us about missing paperwork after a change of operator and rancid smells from grease in the duct.
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system.
- We survey the system, from your pictures or on site, canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.

Kitchen extract cleaning across SS8: local notes
Across SS8, from Canvey Island outwards, kitchens range from town-centre restaurants and takeaways to pubs, hotels, schools and care homes. Every one gets the same full TR19® clean, from the canopy to the discharge.
Much of our work across London and the South East happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so sites in SS8 can keep trading.
Canvey Island: Church and community hall kitchens, near St Nicholas or anywhere around Canvey Island, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Josephs Catholic Primary School or anywhere near Canvey Island, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
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.
Honest limits
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Different parts, different methods
Canopy and plenum
Canopies vary from a single hood to long runs over several appliances, each section is cleaned and photographed before and after.
Grease filters
We clean the grease filters as part of the job, and refitted so they sit properly in the housing. Damaged ones are noted on the report.
What happens if it’s left?
If your kitchen in SS8 is past its cleaning date, it’s worth booking now. The job takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease.
What your quote should include
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- If they look at the system before pricing
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
FAQs for SS8
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
The whole system: the canopy, the plenum behind the filters, the filters, horizontal ducts, vertical risers, the fan and the discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we cannot reach is recorded on the report.
Do you work in SS8?
Yes. We work in SS8 and the rest of Essex, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we normally come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
Short systems are done in a few hours, but large systems may be spread over more than one visit. We will tell you how long when we quote.
How much 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.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
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.
