Commercial Kitchen Extraction, Cleaning & Compliance Services
TR19 Grease cleaning is one type of requirement. A kitchen deep clean, general ventilation-hygiene inspection, fire-related action or missing access panel may need different expertise and a different contractor scope. Start with the actual problem rather than an assumed service label.
TR19® Grease Kitchen Extract Cleaning
Cleaning requirements involving grease-laden extraction, including the canopy, plenum, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge where applicable. Access and completion evidence should be defined before appointment.
Commercial Kitchen Deep Cleaning
Specialist cleaning of cooking equipment, floors, walls and preparation areas for hygiene action, refits or reopening. Kitchen surfaces and internal grease-extract ductwork should not be treated as one undefined job.
TR19® Air & Ventilation Hygiene
General ventilation, air-handling units and ductwork hygiene. These systems are distinct from grease-laden commercial kitchen extraction and require the appropriate technical assessment and work scope.
High-Level Cleaning & Extract Access
High-level grease or dust, roof-level equipment, inaccessible duct sections and repeated exclusions. Access or enabling works may need resolution before a specialist clean can be completed.
Fire-Risk & Insurance Actions
Requests arising from fire-risk assessments, insurers, landlords or audits. Kitchen grease extraction, fire/smoke dampers, fire doors and passive fire are distinct workstreams requiring relevant competent professionals.
Reports, Certificates & Contractor Assurance
Clarifying the system covered, work completed, photographs, exclusions, contractor identity, applicable registration, insurance and evidence still required. A certificate alone does not describe every outstanding action.
Why system scope matters
The extraction system goes beyond the cooker hood
A commercial kitchen extract route can run from the visible canopy through concealed ductwork, vertical risers and roof-level plant. The contractor needs to establish which parts are included, accessible and evidenced. A canopy-only clean is not the same as an agreed wider extract-system clean.

This sequence is illustrative; the actual installation and technical scope must be determined by the appointed specialist.

The questions to resolve before booking work
How much will kitchen extract cleaning cost?
Price depends on system size, contamination, fan location, access, working hours, reporting and exclusions. Compare the actual scope, not just the headline figure.
London cleaning costs and quotes · TR19 certificates and report requirements
How frequently should it be cleaned?
Cleaning intervals need to reflect actual use, cooking processes, inspections, previous grease levels and relevant specifications or contractual requirements.
What if a TR19 report lists outstanding actions?
Keep inaccessible sections, partial cleaning, missing measurements or photographs and recommendations visible until the responsible specialist or adviser addresses them.
What do TR19, DW/172 and SFG20 mean?
Grease-extract hygiene, general ventilation hygiene, kitchen-ventilation design and planned maintenance are related but different subjects. Their roles should not be combined into one certificate claim.

Built around the operating environment
A late-night restaurant, occupied care home, college kitchen, hotel, food factory or managed retail property may have comparable extract-system components but very different access, shutdown, safeguarding or handover requirements. Those practical constraints need to be visible before a contractor proposes the work.

Managing multiple kitchens or buildings?
Common commercial fields can make site requirements and contractor reports easier to compare, while each property keeps its own extraction system, access limitations, contractor appointment and outstanding actions.

Historic EC Cleaners Project Evidence
The historic EC Cleaners archive illustrates how extraction scope, kitchen cleaning, access and the operating environment can affect a specialist job. These examples are historical project records, not current Search and Submit Ltd cleaning contracts or evidence of an appointed contractor’s present approval.
Workable scope matters as much as the service label
Park Manor, Poole: extraction and selected kitchen deep-cleaning work in an occupied care setting, where meal continuity and access mattered. View project.
Pinkmead, Hampshire: a kitchen canopy, difficult-access duct route and roof extract fan illustrate why a quotation needs to follow the system. View project.
The Botanist, Bournemouth: a pre-opening kitchen cleaning and extract requirement shows why different workstreams need distinct scope and evidence. View project.
Commercial Kitchen Extract Cleaning: Common Questions
Do I need to know exactly which TR19 service is required?
No. Explain the site, the reason for the enquiry and any deadline. Existing reports, photographs, quotations and recommendations can help identify the right commercial questions for the appointed contractor or adviser.
Is TR19 Grease the same as general duct or AHU cleaning?
No. Grease-contaminated commercial kitchen extraction and general ventilation hygiene are separate workstreams. The installation, competence, inspection and cleaning scope should be identified accordingly.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
An independent contractor’s quotation depends on the actual extract system, contamination, access, working hours and reporting. Compare which components are covered and which are excluded. See cost factors.
Can I send an insurer’s recommendation or a previous TR19 report?
Yes. Send the original wording and the site details. EC can help organise the supplied information and commercial questions, but does not technically approve reports or determine insurance coverage.
Does EC Cleaners Network perform cleaning or issue certificates?
No. EC Cleaners Network is operated by Search and Submit Ltd for administrative and commercial coordination. Independent appointed contractors and competent professionals are responsible for technical assessment, physical work, reporting and any applicable certification within their agreed scope.
