Hampshire · Grease filter exchange
Barton Stacey grease filter exchange
A scheduled grease filter exchange, swapping dirty canopy filters for clean ones for commercial sites in Barton Stacey and across Hampshire. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and fully insured.
- Grease left in baffles after washing
- Grease dripping from the canopy
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Watch for grease drips between visits
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
- Make sure we can reach the canopy on exchange day
- Do not let the full clean slip because filters are changed
Nothing changes for your staff, except one less greasy job. Just keep the canopy clear for the next visit and tell us if service times change.
If cooking has stepped up, the filter schedule should too. Changing the interval early stops grease building up unseen behind the canopy.
Grease filter exchange for kitchens and businesses in Barton Stacey
We set up grease filter exchange for kitchens in Barton Stacey on a schedule that suits their cooking. Busy kitchens need changes more often while a lighter kitchen can go longer. We agree the interval with you at the start. The work covers wall canopies, baffle filters and restaurants and pubs, and the jobs we see most are grease filters clogged with grease and damaged filters letting grease past.
In a village or hamlet like Barton Stacey, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A canopy that doesn’t capture the vapour properly
- Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters
- Greasy ducts and risers that a filter change won’t reach
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Island canopies
- Wall canopies
- Restaurants and pubs
- Mesh filters
- Baffle filters
- School and hospital kitchens
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes a few minutes per canopy, longer for a large kitchen with several canopies. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Barton Stacey can be planned properly.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- We note any filters that are bent, damaged or missing.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- We check the filters are seated and the canopy is ready to use.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
What grease filter exchange looks like in Barton Stacey
There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Barton Stacey, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on its filters to catch grease before it reaches the duct. Kitchens in Barton Stacey get their food hygiene inspections from Test Valley council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Barton Stacey. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Barton Stacey, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. School kitchens, at schools like Barton Stacey Church of England Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What affects the quote in Barton Stacey
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The size of the system
- A single visit or a regular plan
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Questions from Barton Stacey
Which fire service covers Barton Stacey?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Barton Stacey. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you work at weekends in Barton Stacey?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Barton Stacey doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
How regularly do grease filters need exchanging?
The right interval depends on the kitchen. If filters clog early, the interval needs shortening, and we can change it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Where does the waste go?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Normally not. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
What does grease filter exchange cost?
Filters, canopies and how often you need visits all affect the price. Tell us what you have and we will come back with a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
