Extraction Cleaning · Thundersley
Thundersley's cooklines - the Tarpots takeaways, the local restaurants - 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.

The takeaways at Tarpots and the restaurants along Kents Hill Road all work their canopies through the evening, and grease builds on the filters, up the plenum and into the fan faster than a wipe-down keeps pace with.
As one of Castle Point Borough Council's 537 rated premises, a Thundersley kitchen shows a greased extraction the usual way - it runs hot and smoky, the hood stops capturing, and the caked filters and fan become a fire load over the flame. We strip, degrease and certify the whole system to TR19 Grease so the pull returns, cleaning the fan itself where the airflow has already gone.
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 Thundersley 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 Tarpots fish bar had run hot and heavy-aired for weeks. The filters were caked and the roof fan greased and slow; we stripped and soaked the filters, scraped canopy and duct, and degreased the fan so it drew cleanly and safely again.
A Kents Hill restaurant'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 survey the canopy, filters and fan and gauge the grease loading and how far airflow has dropped.
The line and any suppression system are protected and the area covered before we start.
The whole system is degreased - filters, canopy, plenum and fan - twice over where grease is baked on.
You get the certificate, the before-and-after photographs and a recommended re-clean date.
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 - Tarpots and Kents Hill, the village and the Common, and across Essex.
Yes - overnight, early mornings and closed days at no extra charge.
The takeaways at Tarpots fry hardest of anywhere in Thundersley, working canopies through the evening rush. Left to load, their extraction runs hot and turns into a fire risk over the fryers. We degrease the whole line so the extraction holds the cookline through service.
We have stripped, degreased and certified commercial extraction to TR19 Grease since 2001, across Essex 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 Essex.
