Extraction Cleaning · Louth
From the the Mercer Row inns to the market cafes, Louth cooks over open flame - and a greased-up canopy, filter and fan pull badly, run hot and add fire risk. We strip and degrease the whole system, canopy to fan, and certify it fire-safe.

Try the cost calculatorLouth cooks hard, and from the Mercer Row inns to the market cafes every cookline faces the same test - service after service loading its canopy with grease. The settings vary; the grease does not.
Sitting inside a food economy of 1,600 rated premises, a Louth cookline loads its canopy, filters and fan steadily. Once the grease sets, the hood stops capturing at the line, the kitchen turns hot and smoky, and the caked filters and fan sit as a fire risk over a live flame. We strip and degrease the whole system so the airflow - and the fire safety - come back.
Swapping filters treats the symptom; grease in the canopy, plenum and fan is what actually strangles the airflow. Clean the lot together and the cookline captures again, the kitchen runs cooler, and the fire risk over a live line comes down with it.
It is measured and evidenced to TR19 Grease, with the fan the tell: when a Louth 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.
Typical jobs we handle, by sector and area - representative of the work we do, not named clients.
At a residential home in Louth, cooking daily for its residents, the kitchen had gone hot and smoky mid-service as grease loaded the canopy, filters and fan. We cleaned the filters, canopy and baffles, scraped the duct, and degreased the fan housing and impeller on a closed day. The cookline drew properly again, certified with before-and-after photos.
At a golf club in Louth, serving the clubhouse through the day, the kitchen had gone hot and smoky mid-service as grease loaded the canopy, filters and fan. We cleared the filters and canopy, scraped back the plenum and accessible run, and degreased the impeller between services. The cookline drew properly again, certified with before-and-after photos.
We check the canopy, filters and fan, note the airflow and grease loading, and agree scope around your service.
The cookline and any fire-suppression system are protected before work starts, and the area sheeted.
Filters, canopy, plenum and extract fan degreased - a two-stage clean where the grease is baked on.
You get a dated certificate, before-and-after photographs and a recommended cleaning interval.
On cooking hours. The heavier the line the sooner it needs doing - TR19 Grease bases the interval on daily cooking hours, so we assess your loading and put a next-due date on it rather than guess.
The whole system - filters, canopy, plenum, fan housing and impeller, and the accessible duct. Grease on the fan is usually what has actually killed the airflow, so filters alone rarely fix a hot, smoky kitchen.
No. We degrease around the nozzles and detection of a wet-chemical system without disturbing them, so both the extraction and the suppression are left working.
Yes - Mercer Row and the Cornmarket, St James' spire, and the Fairfield industrial estate, and across the wider Lincolnshire.
Yes. We work overnight, early mornings and closed days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work, so the kitchen is ready for the next service.

Louth sits below the tallest parish spire in England as the gateway to the Lincolnshire Wolds, a Georgian market town whose Mercer Row and Cornmarket inns and the Fairfield estate keep it fed and working. Left in place, that grease feeds flame and starves airflow. We work around service so the extraction is clean, certified and pulling properly before the next service.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across Lincolnshire 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 Lincolnshire.
