Sutton Coldfield · TR19 Grease
We degrease the canopy, baffle filters and extractor fan for Sutton Coldfield restaurants, takeaways and pubs - so the system pulls properly, runs cooler and holds a current TR19 certificate.
Sutton Coldfield
Sutton Coldfield fries across the royal town - the Boldmere Road and Jockey Road cooklines cook from open to close, and the Parade and Mere Green kitchens run alongside.
The settings vary, the grease does not. Across Wylde Green, Walmley and the suburban strips, the takeaways and grill houses run the single hardest test an extraction canopy faces. Sutton Coldfield rates around 1,100 food premises, most of them frying in a tight footprint.
We degrease exactly what the Wylde Green and Walmley cooks stand under - the canopy, the baffle filters and the extractor fan. Cleaned properly the system draws as designed, clearing heat and steam, carrying a current TR19 Grease certificate, and running cooler, since a clean Sutton Coldfield fan is not straining against grease to shift the same air.
The system
Extraction cleaning is the accessible heart of the system - the kit above a hard-frying Wylde Green 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 Walmley 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 Sutton Coldfield 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 Sutton Coldfield's residential streets; cleaned or changed so the downstream stages are not overwhelmed.
Fire
A Sutton Coldfield 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 Wylde Green 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 Wylde Green 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 Walmley system that a quick canopy wipe misses.
On the ground in Sutton Coldfield
We are under Sutton Coldfield's canopies every week. Real jobs, not stock shots.
A garden-centre greenhouse restaurant in Sutton Coldfield had cooking fats building up at the duct changes and choking the airflow. We ran an intensive manual scrape-down followed by a chemical degrease soak, clearing the bends and bringing the system back to a fire-compliant, working state. Secure access was coordinated with the site operations team.
Why it pays
Extraction cleaning is a fire-risk job first - but it pays back every Sutton Coldfield service.
A clean canopy and fan clear the heat and steam off a hard Wylde Green 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 Walmley 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 Wylde Green or Walmley kitchen sits in a tighter band than a daytime cafe.
Yes - from Wylde Green, Walmley and the city centre out to the suburbs, and across the wider West Midlands.
Yes. Most venues we clean around Wylde Green and Walmley 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 Walmley and Jockey 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.
Every clean finishes with a dated TR19 certificate, before-and-after photographs and a condition report - the evidence a Wylde Green operator's insurer or fire risk assessor expects to see.
Yes. Beyond restaurants, Sutton Coldfield has catering across the Gracechurch Centre, production kitchens at Good Hope Hospital, and golf-club and hotel kitchens - high-volume systems we clean and certify alongside the hospitality work.
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 Wylde Green kitchen - we clean the full run to TR19 and certify it together.
