Great Yarmouth · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Great Yarmouth restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Great Yarmouth
Great Yarmouth fries across the resort - the Marine Parade and Regent Road cooklines cook from open to close, and the Market Place and King Street kitchens run alongside.
The kitchens differ, the grease is the same. Along Broad Row, Northgate Street and the parades beyond, the grill houses and takeaways put an extraction canopy through the roughest work it will ever take. Of the around 1,100 food premises rated in Great Yarmouth, most are frying in a cramped back kitchen.
We degrease the part of the system the Broad Row and Northgate Street cooks work under - the canopy, the baffle filters and the extractor fan. Done properly it pulls the way it was designed to, clearing heat and steam, holding a current TR19 Grease certificate, and running cooler, because a clean Great Yarmouth fan is not fighting 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 Broad Row cookline that does the work and shows the grease first.
Canopy inside and out, baffle filters cleaned or replaced, and the extractor fan and housing degreased - that last part loses performance quietly as grease builds on the blades through a hard Northgate Street service. The work meets the TR19 Grease standard, with before-and-after evidence and a certificate, so the system pulls properly and your Great Yarmouth fire risk assessment and insurer have the paperwork they ask for.
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 Great Yarmouth's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Great Yarmouth 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 Broad Row 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 Broad Row 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 Northgate Street system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Great Yarmouth
We are under Great Yarmouth's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A Market Gates food unit in Great Yarmouth had grease loading the extract fan and letting cooking smells drift into the centre. We degreased the fan blades and housing, rebalanced the impeller and restored the pull, clearing the smells and returning the air quality. The centre's facilities team signed the fire-safety record.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Great Yarmouth service.
A clean canopy and fan clear the heat and steam off a hard Broad Row cookline faster, so the kitchen runs cooler and the fan draws less to move the same air. A greased system is a fire risk, a failed inspection point and a comfort problem at once. Frequency tracks how hard you cook - the Northgate Street takeaways need it more often than a daytime cafe - and your certificate sets the interval.

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 Broad Row or Northgate Street kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
Extraction cleaning covers the canopy, filters and fan; where the concealed duct run behind them is also loaded - as it often is in a tight Broad Row kitchen - we clean the full run to TR19 and certify it together.
Yes - from Broad Row, Northgate Street and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider Norfolk.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Broad Row and Northgate Street are busy through the evening, so we work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, at no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
Yes. The takeaways and grill houses around Northgate Street and Regent Road 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. Beyond restaurants, Great Yarmouth has campus catering at East Coast College, production kitchens at the James Paget University Hospital, and seafront and hotel kitchens - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
It can. An inspection covers the physical condition of the premises, ventilation included, so a grease-laden canopy or fan over a Marine Parade cookline can count against your score.
