Newbridge: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Newbridge?
Food hygiene inspections in Newbridge are carried out by New Forest council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Do you work at weekends in Newbridge?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Newbridge doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
At least as often as the rest of the extract, which BESA guidance sets by daily cooking hours: every 3, 6 or 12 months. A noisy or heavily coated fan may need it sooner.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, we can clean just the fan. It’s useful when a fan is noisy or greasy between full cleans, but it doesn’t replace a full TR19 clean.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
About our extract fan cleaning in Newbridge
Any fan serving a kitchen in Newbridge is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. Your report shows the impeller as we found it and as we left it. Common call-outs are for thick grease on the impeller and casing and weak extraction at the canopy, on discharge points, in-line fans and axial fans.
In a village or hamlet like Newbridge, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

When it’s something else
Extract fan cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t put right:
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Roof-mounted fans
- Centrifugal fans

- Fan housings

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Newbridge and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. The timing of a visit to Newbridge is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- The fan is isolated so it can’t start while we work.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and photos go into your report.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Move anything stored near the system

Advice
Why act early in Newbridge
Grease on the fan is grease in the system. A TR19 clean that left out the fan wouldn’t cover the whole system, and insurers asking for TR19 cleaning expect the full system. With notice, the visit to Newbridge can be fitted around your bookings and events.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

Extract fan cleaning around Newbridge
The FSA’s data shows about 7 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Newbridge. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Food hygiene inspections in Newbridge are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Newbridge. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Historic houses near Newbridge, such as Landford Manor about 3.8 miles north-west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Copythorne CofE Infant School or anywhere near Newbridge, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Tatchbury Mount Hospital is the nearest hospital to Newbridge, about 2.1 miles east.

What affects the quote in Newbridge
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Keep access to the fan clear
- Report grease escaping from the fan
If the fan needs more than a clean, we’ll say so plainly. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Grease settles faster when the air stops moving, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
Part by part
Inline duct fans
An inline fan can be easy to forget because it’s out of sight. We find it during the survey and include it in the clean.
Impellers and blades
Grease on the leading edges of the blades cuts the fan’s efficiency. Scraping and degreasing them restores their shape, so the fan can run as intended.
