Kitchen extract cleaning across SW2: what to expect
Every time food is cooked, warm vapour carries fat up into the extract. It cools inside the duct and settles as a sticky film that thickens month by month. That film is fuel, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. Typical jobs include ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19, across discharge points, horizontal duct runs and plenums and filters.
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- 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.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Pricing in SW2
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What’s near Brixton
Typical jobs here are in premises near Trinity Academy, Trinity Congregational Church and Trinity Arms and the streets around them. You’ll also find Sudbourne Primary School (under half a mile west), Trinity Academy (under half a mile south-west) and Max Roach Park (0.7 miles north). There’s a railway station in Brixton itself: Brixton station. Well-known places in the area include London General Cab Company Museum (0.9 miles north) and Baynard's Castle (3.8 miles north).

Where we work in SW2
Across SW2, from Streatham, Herne Hill and Brixton 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.
Across London and the South East, we work evenings, overnight and weekends, so sites across SW2 do not have to lose a day.
Brixton: If you cook for passing trade around Brixton station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Sudbourne Primary School or anywhere near Brixton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in SW2
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Travel, parking and unloading

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

Need a price for kitchen extract cleaning? Please call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with a few details about the site. We will talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before anything is booked.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School, hospital and care home kitchens often have fixed hours and long holidays, so cleans can be planned for holidays or quiet times. The certificate goes straight into the site’s maintenance records.
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
When it’s something else
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Fire dampers that will not close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that is for a ductwork contractor)
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
Questions from SW2
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?
We clean every part the grease travels through. Canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge are all included, reached through access panels where needed.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
