Why Cambridge kitchens need scheduled extract cleaning
Every commercial kitchen in Cambridge builds up a film of atomised fat inside its extraction system within weeks of a deep clean.
Working across Cambridgeshire, our engineers dismantle the canopy, hand-scrub plenum and duct surfaces, clean impellers and housings, and photograph every stage.
Reports are issued within 24 hours, so Cambridge operators can file evidence the same week the work is done.
Because Cambridge has a strong presence of takeaways and fried chicken shops, most of our work here happens overnight or on closed days, with keys, alarm codes and access agreed in writing beforehand.
Cambridge population approx. 145,000 — one of the UK's most populated areas, served from our Cambridgeshire base.
Heavy-use kitchens in Cambridge — high-volume frying, charcoal grills, wok ranges — usually need quarterly cleaning. Moderate use is six-monthly and light use annual.
Fixed written quotes for Cambridge sites from £275, priced by canopy length and duct run rather than hourly rates.

What Cambridge kitchens say about us
5.0
Average from 96 verified kitchen extract jobs in and around Cambridge
Booked them after our insurer asked for a TR/19 certificate we did not have. Crew arrived in Cambridge at 11pm, stripped the canopy and duct, and the report with before-and-after photos landed the next morning. Fair price for the amount of work involved.

Quoted a fixed price after a free survey, no hourly creep, and they worked around our closed day so we lost no covers. Already booked the next visit.

Filters came back looking new, the plenum was spotless and the kitchen was left cleaner than they found it. Now on a six-monthly schedule. Would use again without hesitating.

FAQs
Extractor fan cleaning in Cambridge — your questions
Is duct cleaning a legal requirement in Cambridge?
Fire safety law requires you to manage grease build-up, and most insurers write TR/19 Grease compliance into your policy. In practice, Cambridgeshire environmental health teams and your insurer both expect documented cleaning for any Cambridge kitchen with a commercial extract system.
What happens if my ductwork has no access panels?
We survey the Cambridge system, clean everything reachable, and quote separately for fitting compliant access hatches so the whole run can be certified next time.
Do you clean the extract fan itself?
Yes — impeller, housing, motor casing and discharge are all stripped, degreased and rebalanced where needed. A clogged impeller is the usual reason a Cambridge kitchen feels smoky.
Are your engineers insured and vetted?
All 8 engineers covering Cambridge are directly employed, DBS-checked where required, IPAF/PASMA trained for work at height and covered by £10m public liability.
