Extraction Cleaning · Magor
From the the Square pubs to the brewery canteens, Magor 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 calculatorAcross Magor, from the Square pubs to the brewery canteens, the cooklines all meet one test: service after service packing the canopy with grease. The kitchens differ; the grease does not.
One of 1,600 rated premises in the area, a Magor cookline packs grease onto its canopy, filters and fan day after day. When it sets, the hood stops pulling at the line, the kitchen goes hot and smoky, and the caked filters and fan become a fire risk over an open flame. We strip and degrease the lot so the airflow and the fire safety return.
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 Magor 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 pub in Magor, serving food through the week, the extract had lost its pull, with grease set hard on the baffles, the plenum and the fan. We stripped and soaked the filters, scraped the canopy and accessible duct back, and degreased the plenum and fan out of hours. Airflow and fire safety restored, we left a report and before-and-after photographs.
At a nursing home in Magor, feeding residents through the day, grease had built from the baffles back to the impeller and the canopy no longer pulled the line clear. We removed and soaked the baffles, degreased the canopy, plenum and fan, and cleaned the reachable duct overnight. The kitchen ran cool again; we left the certificate and photo record for the fire file.
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.
It goes by how hard you cook. A heavy line fouls faster than a light one, so TR19 Grease sets the interval by daily cooking hours; we read your grease loading and set a next-due date instead of guessing.
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 - the Square and the village centre, the Magor brewery, and the M4 and Severnside units, and across the wider Monmouthshire.
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.

Magor sits by junction 23 of the M4 beside the great brewery that makes Budweiser and Stella, a village whose Square pubs and the brewery and Severnside canteens 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 South Wales 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 South Wales.
