TR19 commercial kitchen cleaning in Godalming.
TR19® cleaning for Godalming kitchens, ventilation and ductwork — grease cleared back to bare metal, with the certificate and photo report your insurer needs.
Your local Godalming duct cleaning team
Godalming is an ancient market town on the River Wey — the independent restaurants and cafés along the High Street and Church Street, the riverside pubs, school catering including Charterhouse, and care homes across Farncombe and Busbridge. Each kitchen runs an extract system that fills with grease.
We clean and certify those systems to BESA TR19® standards across Godalming and the surrounding villages, back to bare metal, with the 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 Godalming 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 Godalming & the surrounding area
We know Godalming
Godalming was, in 1881, the first town in the world to have a public electricity supply and electric street lighting. Its old town hall — the little arcaded ‘Pepperpot’ of 1814 — still stands in the High Street, and the River Wey runs through a centre full of independent shops.
Those High Street and Church Street kitchens, the riverside pubs and the school and care-home canteens across GU7, are where we clean and certify extract systems — so wherever your Godalming kitchen sits, we already know the area.
