TR19 commercial kitchen cleaning in Farnham.
TR19® cleaning for Farnham kitchens, ventilation and ductwork — grease cleared back to bare metal, with the certificate and photo report your insurer needs.
Your local Farnham duct cleaning team
Farnham is Surrey’s elegant Georgian craft town — the independent restaurants and cafés along Castle Street, The Borough and Downing Street, the pubs around the Maltings, and schools and care homes across Hale and Rowledge. Each kitchen runs an extract system that quietly fills with grease.
We clean and certify those systems to BESA TR19® standards across Farnham and the surrounding villages, back to bare metal, with the hygiene certificate and photo report your insurer and fire officer expect.

Heavy use — 12 to 16 hours a day. Busy restaurants, hotels and takeaways.
Every 6 months
Moderate use — 6 to 12 hours a day. Pubs, cafes and canteens.

Transparent, fixed pricing
Most Farnham jobs start from £300–£500. Larger or more complex sites — hotels, hospitals, schools and high-rise blocks — typically run from £1,000 to £3,000+.
The price depends on duct length, how much grease has built up, and how accessible the system is. We survey first (or review your schematics) and give a fixed, no-surprises quote that includes full documentation. It is always cheaper than a fire, a fine, or a rejected insurance claim.

Serving Farnham & the surrounding area
We know Farnham
Farnham is famed for its Georgian streets and Farnham Castle, which has stood on the hill above the town for nearly 900 years (begun in 1138). The town was named England’s Craft Town in 2013, and handsome Castle Street runs down to The Borough at its heart.
Those Castle Street and Borough kitchens, and the schools and care homes across the GU9 area, are where we clean and certify extract systems — so wherever your Farnham kitchen sits, we already know the area.
