How kitchen extract cleaning works in TN32
Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers canopies and hoods, extract fans and discharge points, and the jobs we see most are proof of cleaning requested by an insurer and poor airflow at the canopy.
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
How we quote
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Around Robertsbridge
Locally, jobs take us to businesses close to The Ostrich Hotel, Robertsbridge United Reformed Church and Robertsbridge Community College and the streets around them. Robertsbridge has its own railway station: Robertsbridge station. Nearby you’ll also find Ticehurst House Hospital (5.4 miles north-west). Open spaces near Robertsbridge include Senlac Hill.
Kitchen extract cleaning across TN32: local notes
From Robertsbridge, Staplecross and Northbridge Street to its smaller places, TN32 has kitchens of every size. Every one gets the same full TR19® clean, from the canopy to the discharge.
Across London and the South East, we work evenings, overnight and weekends, so sites in TN32 can keep trading.
Robertsbridge: If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Salehurst Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Robertsbridge, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you cook for passing trade around Robertsbridge station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
Why it fails
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
Look out for any of the following:
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
Why act early?
Any food business in TN32 can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and they look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment, extraction included. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster.
What your quote should include
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- When the next visit should be, and why
- What insurance they carry
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- A canopy that’s too small or a system that was badly designed
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
- A fan motor that has burnt out
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy every part is to reach
- What state the system is in
- Parking and loading at the site
- How many systems or sites are involved
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
TN32: your questions answered
What about areas you cannot get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Is TN32 in your area?
Yes. We cover TN32 and the rest of East Sussex, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
When do you clean the extract?
We work around your hours. Overnight, weekend and between-service cleans are all possible and the kitchen is ready to cook when we leave.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in TN32?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
