Corby · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Corby restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Corby
Corby fries across the steel town - the George Street and Corporation Street cooklines cook from open to close, and the Rockingham Road and Willow Place kitchens run alongside.
The venues change but the grease does not. From Rockingham Road to Parkland Gateway and the suburban parades, the takeaways and grill houses set the toughest test any extraction canopy meets. Corby rates hundreds of food premises, most of them frying hard in a tight footprint.
The kit the Rockingham Road and Parkland Gateway cooks work beneath - canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan - is what we degrease. Done right it pulls the way it should, clearing heat and steam, backed by a current TR19 Grease certificate, and it runs cooler too, because a clean Corby fan is not working against a greased one to move the same air.
The system
Extraction cleaning is the accessible heart of the system - the kit above a hard-frying Rockingham Road cookline that does the work and shows the grease first.
The canopy is stripped inside and out, the baffle filters cleaned or renewed, and the extractor fan and housing degreased - it is the fan that slips quietly as grease weighs its blades through a hard Parkland Gateway service. All of it is taken to the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system draws as designed and your Corby fire risk assessment and insurer hold the record they expect.
Filters
The standard for commercial cooklines: they trap grease and slow flame spread. Cleaned, or replaced when warped or corroded.
Common on older or lighter setups; they clog fast and pass grease through if neglected. We flag where a baffle upgrade is overdue.
On the odour and emission-controlled systems near Corby's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Corby cookline's extraction and its fire protection are one system - and a clean is the moment to check the join.
Nozzles aimed at the canopy and cooking points; grease build-up around them on a busy Rockingham Road line is exactly what they exist to fight. We clean around them without disturbing the system.
Where the gas shuts off if extraction fails on a Rockingham Road line, we work without tripping it - and flag it if it is not behaving.
Checked for the grease that would stop them closing - a quiet failure point on a Parkland Gateway system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Corby
We are under Corby's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A Willow Place food unit in Corby had grease on the extract fan letting smoke drift into the centre. We degreased the fan blades and housing, rebalanced the impeller and restored the pull, drawing the smoke back into the canopy. The centre's facilities office took a recurring quarterly clean and signed the fire-safety record.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Corby service.
With the canopy and fan clean, heat and steam clear off a hard Rockingham Road cookline faster, the kitchen runs cooler, and the fan works less to move the same air. Leave it greased and you have a fire risk, a failed inspection point and an uncomfortable kitchen together. Frequency follows the cooking load - the Parkland Gateway takeaways need it more often than a daytime cafe - and the certificate sets the next date.

Questions
It depends how hard the kitchen runs. Under TR19 Grease, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day points to roughly every three months, moderate to every six, light to every twelve. A busy Rockingham Road or Parkland Gateway kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
Every clean finishes with a dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs and a condition report - the evidence a Rockingham Road operator's insurer or fire risk assessor expects to see.
Yes. Beyond restaurants, Corby has campus catering at the local college, production kitchens at the town's community hospital, and stadium and hotel kitchens - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
Yes. The takeaways and grill houses around Parkland Gateway and Willow Place run a canopy, filters and a fan and often carry a heavy grease load for their size. We clean and certify them the same way as a full restaurant system.
Yes - from Rockingham Road, Parkland Gateway and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider Northamptonshire.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Rockingham Road and Parkland Gateway are busy through the evening, so we work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
It can. An inspection covers the physical condition of the premises, ventilation included, so a grease-laden canopy or fan over a George Street cookline can count against your score.
