FAQs for Roxbourne
What do you need to know about parking in Roxbourne?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit typically gets round them.
Which fire service covers Roxbourne?
That is London Fire Brigade. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What does a pre-clean survey involve?
We look at the system from canopy to discharge, take grease readings and check access. It lets us plan the clean and give you a fixed quote.
How much does TR19 inspection cost in Roxbourne?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, for our cleans and other firms’ alike.
About our TR19 inspection in Roxbourne
A pre-clean survey looks at the whole system, from canopy to discharge. Access is checked along the full length, and record grease readings at set points. We’re often asked to deal with cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen and systems that need surveying before cleaning, on access surveys, wet film thickness tests and pre-clean surveys.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. In Roxbourne, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

For landlords and multi-site operators
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. A name and number for whoever controls access to the building in Roxbourne saves time on the night.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- The results are reported, with anything missed flagged.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Getting a quote
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Roxbourne
As hot, greasy air travels up the duct, it cools and leaves a film behind. It often collects where nobody can see it: the plenum, bends and horizontal runs.
Clients normally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- An insurer’s request for a TR19 audit
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Clementine Churchill Hospital is the nearest hospital to Roxbourne, about 2.3 miles east.

- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether VAT is included

What affects the quote in Roxbourne
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Why act early in Roxbourne
Finding a hotspot early means a targeted spot clean rather than a bigger problem later. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. Every month a London system goes without attention adds to what has to be done later.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What you get with us

Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Keep access panels clear and unpainted
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Store grease readings where your insurer can see them
- Keep to the recommended interval
Where sections couldn’t be reached, the report says where access panels would help. Fitting them before the next clean means the whole system gets done.
Regular grease readings keep the cleaning interval honest. It spots changes in how fast grease builds.
