Extraction Cleaning · Sheffield
Sheffield fries and grills hard across the city - the Ecclesall Road restaurants, the London Road kitchens and the Kelham Island food halls all loading 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 calculatorSheffield cooks over open flame right across the city. The restaurants of Ecclesall Road, the international kitchens of London Road, the Kelham Island food halls and the takeaways out through the suburbs all run extraction that faces the same test - a busy cookline, service after service, loading its canopy with grease. The cuisines differ; the grease does not.
Sitting inside a Sheffield food economy of 4,878 rated premises, a city cookline loads its canopy, filters and fan steadily - hardest of all on a heavy frying or grill line. Once the grease sets, the hood stops capturing at the line, the kitchen turns hot and smoky, and the caked filters and greased 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, measured and evidenced to TR19 Grease.
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 Sheffield 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.
At a busy London Road restaurant, a fierce frying line had loaded the canopy and unbalanced the fan until the kitchen ran hot and smoky through service. We stripped and soaked the filters, scraped the canopy and accessible duct, and degreased the plenum and fan so the extraction pulled properly and safely again.
A kitchen in a Kelham Island food hall had extraction that had gone weak - the tell that it is the greased fan, not the filters. We cleaned the fan and the whole system together, so the airflow that came back was real, with a certificate and before-and-after photographs for the file.
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.
By cooking volume. A heavy line needs cleaning more often than a light one - TR19 Grease sets the interval by daily cooking hours, and we assess your grease loading and set a next-due date rather than 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 Devonshire Quarter, Ecclesall Road and London Road, Kelham Island, out to Broomhill and Hunters Bar, and across the wider South Yorkshire.
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.
The Cutlery Works in Kelham Island is the biggest independent food hall in the north, a run of kitchens cooking flat out under one roof in a converted works - one of the steadiest extraction loads in the city. 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 sitting.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across South Yorkshire 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 Yorkshire.
