Extraction Cleaning · Crosby
Crosby's cooklines - College Road restaurants, South Road bars, village kitchens - load canopy, filters and fan with grease. We strip and degrease the whole system, canopy to fan, and certify it fire-safe to TR19 Grease.

Try the cost calculatorCrosby cooks for its high streets day in, day out. The restaurants of College Road, the bars and kitchens of South Road in Waterloo and the delis of the village all work their canopies through long trading days, and grease builds on the filters, up the plenum and into the fan faster than a wipe-down keeps pace with.
Within a Sefton food economy of 2,392 rated premises, a greased extraction shows itself the usual way - a hot, smoky kitchen, a hood that has stopped drawing, caked filters and a fan sitting as a fire load over the flame. We strip, degrease and certify the whole system to TR19 Grease so the pull returns, and where the airflow has already gone it is the greased fan we put right.
A degreased extraction is not just a compliance tick - your chefs feel it on the line. Restored airflow pulls the heat, smoke and grease-laden air off the cookline instead of leaving it in the kitchen, so the space is cooler to work in and the cooking smells stay out of the dining room.
It is measured and evidenced to TR19 Grease, with the fan the tell: when a Crosby kitchen goes hot and smoky, it is usually grease unbalancing the impeller, not the filters.
The standard on a commercial canopy. We strip, soak and scrape them back, and flag any that are warped or missing - the gap a warped filter leaves lets grease straight into the plenum.
Common on lighter lines and older canopies, and quick to clog solid. We clean what you run and advise where a baffle filter would serve a heavy frying line better.
On enclosed or recirculating systems. We service the stages, check the seals and tell you what needs replacing rather than cleaning.
Many cooklines carry a wet-chemical system built into the canopy. We degrease the filters, canopy and fan without disturbing the nozzles or detection - so you keep both defences.
Where a gas interlock ties the cookline to the extract, we work around it and leave it functioning, so the line cannot fire without the extraction running.
We check and clear accessible fire dampers in the run, so a damper that has to close in a fire is not seized solid with grease.
Real jobs, described by sector and area - never by a client's name.
A South Road restaurant had loaded its canopy and slowed its fan until the kitchen ran hot through service. We stripped and soaked the filters, scraped canopy and duct, and degreased the fan so the extraction pulled properly again.
A College Road takeaway's extraction had gone weak - grease had reached the impeller. We cleaned the fan with the whole system so the airflow that came back was real, and left a certificate and photographs.
We check the canopy, filters and fan, gauge the grease loading and how far the pull has dropped, and agree the scope.
The cookline and any fire-suppression system are protected and the area sheeted before work starts.
Filters, canopy, plenum and fan are degreased end to end - twice over where the grease has baked on hard.
You get a dated certificate, before-and-after photographs and a recommended cleaning interval.
By cooking volume - TR19 Grease sets the interval by daily cooking hours, and we set a next-due date to your grease loading.
The whole system - filters, canopy, plenum, fan and impeller, and the accessible duct. The greased fan is usually the real cause of weak airflow.
No - we degrease around a wet-chemical system's nozzles and detection without disturbing them.
Yes - Crosby Village and College Road, South Road and Waterloo, out to Blundellsands, and across Merseyside.
Yes - overnight, early mornings and closed days at no extra charge.

The South Road strip in Waterloo runs its kitchens flat out on an evening, canopies working through service in a tight row of bars and restaurants. A fan that has stopped balancing turns a kitchen hot and unsafe fast. We degrease the whole line so the extraction holds the cookline through a full service.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across Merseyside and the UK. On a hard-frying line the job is the same every time: the whole system taken back, the fan balanced, and a certificate that satisfies your insurer and fire risk assessor.
Send us your cookline and frying hours and we will survey, strip, degrease and certify - across Merseyside.
