Our Richmond schedule centres on richmond bridge / richmond green riverside gastropubs and the cluster of petersham road and petersham nurseries area fine-dining nearby.
Why Richmond kitchens need extract cleaning
Heritage-building gastropub kitchens with retrofitted extract — frequent TR19 work given the age of the systems. Modern restaurant kitchens at Petersham and Kew Bridge have current-spec extract. London Borough of Richmond upon Thames EHO. Strong overall scoring. Inspections lean towards the lighter end given the well-managed estate. Documentation expectations standard. This drives a specific approach to extract cleaning in Richmond — the schedule, the chemistry, and the documentation all need to fit the local estate and the local inspection pattern.

What does extract cleaning cost in Richmond? +
£895–£2,800+ outside London · £1,195–£3,500+ in London. Richmond kitchens trend toward heritage-building gastropub kitchens with retrofitted extract — frequent tr19 work given the age of the systems — we factor that into the quote at site walk.
Which EHO covers Richmond? +
London Borough of Richmond upon Thames EHO. Strong overall scoring. Inspections lean towards the lighter end given the well-managed estate. Documentation expectations standard.
How is extract cleaning different from canopy cleaning? +
Canopy cleaning covers the visible hood and baffle filters only. Extract cleaning covers the whole system — canopy plus ductwork plus fan. Insurers require the full system cleaned to TR19 specification, not just the canopy.
How often should the extract system be cleaned? +
BESA TR19 sets frequency by usage: heavy use (12+ hours/day) — every 3 months; moderate (6–12 hours/day) — every 6 months; light (<6 hours/day) — every 12 months.
What is a wet film thickness reading? +
A WFT gauge measures the depth of grease residue on the duct interior in microns. TR19 sets thresholds: below 200μm is acceptable; above is non-compliant. We measure before and after and include both in your report.
