Our kitchen extract cleaning service in TN31
Every time food is cooked, warm vapour carries fat up into the extract. As it cools, it clings to the inside of the ductwork and keeps building. That layer will burn, and cleaning the whole system is how you keep it under control. The work covers horizontal duct runs, vertical risers and extract fans, and the jobs we see most are missing paperwork after a change of operator and proof of cleaning requested by an insurer.
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows.
- 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.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
What affects the price in TN31
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What you get with us
- One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
- Survey first, then a fixed quote
- A written report with photos after every visit
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Kitchen extract cleaning across TN31: local notes
In TN31, we work in places such as Rye, Northiam and Camber and well beyond. We cover every place we list for TN31, 21 in all, and kitchens are cleaned around their opening hours, overnight and at weekends included.
From central London kitchens to coastal hotels and country pubs, London and the South East have every kind of site. The same TR19® standard applies to all of them, in TN31 and beyond. Along the coast in TN31, many hotels, pubs and cafés are at their busiest in the summer, so cleaning is often best booked before or after the peak season.
Rye: If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Lamb House is about 0.1 miles south-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Rye Community Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. School holidays are an easy time to do it.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.
Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in TN31
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What to send for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business
- A few general shots of the system
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Honest limits
Kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- A canopy that’s too small or a system that was badly designed
Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning
Grease filters are the first line of defence, and they’re often the weak point. Filters that are bent, badly fitted, missing or left uncleaned let more fat into the plenum and duct, and it doesn’t stop until it reaches the fan.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and new access panels can be fitted so the next clean covers it.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. A filter that is clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in TN31
What about areas you cannot get to?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes normally come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
Yes, a TR19 certificate, along with a photo report. It records what was cleaned, what wasn’t accessible and the recommended next clean date.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
When the kitchen is closed, at whatever time suits you. The equipment is switched off and left to cool, and we hand the kitchen back ready for the next service.
