Kitchen extract cleaning in WD99: how it works

Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with pictures of the canopy and filters, and you will have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in WD99, typically within one working day. The work covers vertical risers, plenums and filters and horizontal duct runs, and people most often call us about a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease.

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 job takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits.

  1. You send pictures or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
  2. We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
  3. The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
  4. Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
  5. Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.

Kitchen extract cleaning around WD99

From Holywell to its smaller places, WD99 has kitchens of every size. Every one gets the same full TR19® clean, from the canopy to the discharge.

We work across London and the South East, and WD99 is part of that area. Every job is surveyed first and quoted at a fixed price, wherever it is in WD99.

Holywell: School kitchens, at schools like Westfield Academy for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hospital like Watford General Hospital, about 0.9 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

What happens if it’s left?

If there’s a fire and the extract hasn’t been cleaned, the paperwork becomes the problem. Many policies require cleaning to TR19, and an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof. A certificate in the file answers that question.

Questions to ask before you book

  • When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
  • Proof of insurance
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • If they look at the system before pricing

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in WD99

We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Site rules, permits and inductions

You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll talk you through it.

What we need to know

You do not need the technical terms. Just send:

  • A few general shots of the system
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • The postcode and the type of business

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What the work involves, part by part

Grease filters

Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that don’t.

Canopy and plenum

Grease meets the system first at the canopy and the plenum behind the filters. Both are scraped and degreased inside and out, with the filter housing cleaned too.

Honest limits

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:

  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains
  • A broken extract fan that won’t run
  • An undersized canopy or fan

Multi-site and managed buildings

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in WD99

Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?

Everything from canopy to discharge: the canopy, the plenum behind the filters, the filters, horizontal ducts, vertical risers, the fan and the discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Any part without access is noted.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.

What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?

You get both a certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log so they’re to hand when an insurer asks.

What should I send you?

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 call 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote and we’ll typically reply within one working day.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
