EC Cleaners Network · From Requirement to Evidence
Request a quotation for commercial kitchen extract or air duct cleaning in the West Midlands, with system scope, access and reporting agreed before work begins.

Commercial kitchen extract cleaning across the West Midlands
Use this regional route for commercial kitchen extract or air duct cleaning across the West Midlands. For one premises, choose the relevant local page below. For several properties, send a site list with separate postcodes, systems, access contacts and required dates.
A restaurant in Birmingham, a hotel in Coventry and staff catering on a managed industrial site may need different working hours, roof access and evidence. Keep each kitchen and extraction route identifiable, even where quotations are coordinated under one regional programme.
For hotel, event and workplace kitchens, see Warwickshire kitchen extraction and ventilation cleaning. Pub groups, hospitality operators and catering estates can also use Staffordshire planned kitchen extract cleaning. Give each premises and system separately when requesting coordinated quotations.
This page covers the metropolitan area and wider West Midlands regional enquiries. The independent specialist confirms which locations it can attend, the technical scope and price for each site. General building ventilation and cooking-grease extraction should have separate requirements and reports.
Costs, quotations and the right service
West Midlands quotations should show each site’s systems, access needs, working window and reporting requirements. Travel, several kitchens, concealed ducts and roof access can affect the proposal. A regional arrangement should still make completed work and exceptions traceable to the individual premises.
See the kitchen extract cleaning cost guide and certificate and report guide. For general building ventilation, use TR19 Air and commercial duct cleaning guidance.
If cooking equipment or kitchen surfaces also need cleaning, describe that separately when requesting a quotation so the specialist can identify the required work.
Why might you need kitchen extract support?
TR19 report action
A report may identify grease accumulation, overdue cleaning, inaccessible ductwork or another item requiring further contractor action.
Insurance or fire-risk requirement
An insurer, broker or fire-risk professional may request cleaning, further investigation or evidence relating to the kitchen extraction system.
Access or evidence problem
Missing access panels, roof restrictions, concealed ducts, incomplete photographs or repeated exclusions can prevent effective close-out.
TR19 kitchen extract and ventilation services in the West Midlands
EC can help route different types of commercial requirement to the most appropriate service pathway. Cleaning, ventilation hygiene, access remediation and evidence review should not automatically be treated as the same job.
TR19® Kitchen Extract Cleaning
Commercial grease extraction requirements involving canopies, plenums, ductwork, fans and associated system sections.
TR19® Air & Ventilation Hygiene
Commercial HVAC and ventilation hygiene requirements where the issue extends beyond kitchen grease extraction systems.
Extract Access & Remediation
Requirements involving inaccessible ductwork, inadequate access openings, high-level plant, roof access or repeated cleaning exclusions.
Report & Evidence Review
Existing reports, photographs, certificates and quotations can be considered to establish what has already happened and what remains outstanding.
Contractor Assurance
Consider the contracting entity, proposed scope, relevant capability, insurance, access assumptions and intended completion evidence before appointment.
Submit a Commercial Requirement
If you are unsure where the requirement fits, send the information already available together with the reason the work is needed.
The kitchen extract system is more than the canopy
A commercial kitchen extract system can include the canopy and filters, plenum, horizontal and vertical ductwork, risers, extract fan and final discharge. The relevant scope should therefore follow the extraction route rather than stopping at the parts that are easiest to see.
This becomes particularly important when quotations are compared. Two companies may both describe their proposal as “TR19 cleaning” while including very different parts of the extraction system.
Useful procurement question: Which parts of the extraction system are included, which are excluded and can every relevant section actually be accessed?
What if the ductwork cannot be accessed?
Inaccessible ductwork is a common reason for incomplete inspection or cleaning. The problem may involve missing access openings, concealed ductwork, vertical risers, roof-level fans, working-at-height restrictions or parts of the building that prevent safe access.
For West Midlands portfolios, collect induction, loading, roof-permit and kitchen shutdown information for each address. Do not assume that one site’s access method or cleaning scope fits every building. Identify previous exclusions and any enabling work before the contractor agrees the regional programme.
Where the same section appears as an exclusion after repeated visits, the next step should normally be to establish why access is failing and what specialist work is required to resolve it. The appropriate solution may involve additional duct access, safe high-level access or other enabling work determined by the relevant competent specialist.
Hotels, restaurants, care, education and FM estates
the West Midlands’s commercial mix means kitchen extraction requirements arise in many different operating environments. Hotels may need work coordinated around continuous catering and guest operations; restaurants and pubs around opening hours; care and healthcare sites around occupied premises; education estates around catering schedules; and FM teams around planned maintenance, contractor control and evidence across several properties.
From requirement to evidence
A straightforward commercial process helps reduce ambiguity before a contractor is appointed and makes the resulting evidence more useful afterwards.
- Identify the trigger.
Establish whether the requirement comes from planned maintenance, a TR19 report, insurer, fire-risk action, audit, refurbishment or previous incomplete work. - Collect existing information.
Reports, certificates, photographs, drawings and previous quotations can help define what is already known. - Clarify the system and access.
Identify the relevant extraction route and keep known access limitations visible. - Obtain an appropriate contractor proposal.
The capability and proposed scope should fit the actual requirement. - Agree the evidence expected afterwards.
The final record should clearly distinguish completed work from anything inaccessible, excluded or still outstanding.

Can I send an existing TR19 report?
Yes. Reports, certificates, photographs, quotations and previous contractor correspondence can help establish what was inspected or completed and what remains outstanding.
Does kitchen extract cleaning include the fan and ductwork?
The proposed scope should identify the relevant extraction route rather than relying on a general service label. Depending on the installation, this may include the canopy, plenum, ductwork, risers, fan and discharge. The contractor should state clearly what is included and excluded.
What if part of the kitchen extract system is inaccessible?
The affected section and reason for the restriction should be identified. The solution may involve additional duct access, safe roof or high-level access, access through building fabric or other enabling work determined by an appropriate competent specialist.
Can you help with an insurer or fire-risk requirement?
Yes. The original insurer, broker or fire-risk recommendation can be used to help organise the commercial requirement. The originating professional or insurer remains responsible for deciding whether the resulting work and evidence satisfy its requirements.
Can the West Midlands be included within a wider multi-site programme?
Yes. Requirements covering several properties can be submitted together. Consistent system information, scope definitions, access records and evidence expectations can make procurement and future portfolio management clearer.
