Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
In a busy kitchen, filter washing is easy to skip. An exchange service takes it off the rota.
About our grease filter exchange in Broughton
Each visit is quick and tidy. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in, and we check they’re seated with no gaps. If something looks wrong, we tell you. The work covers island canopies, restaurants and pubs and wall canopies, and the jobs we see most are smoke and heat lingering under the hood and hand-washed filters that still look greasy.
In a small place like Broughton, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Broughton
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
What happens on the day
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes well under an hour for most canopies. For a village or hamlet like Broughton, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- The filters in each canopy are measured and counted.
- An exchange schedule is agreed to suit your cooking.
- On each visit, we remove the greasy filters.
- Clean filters go in and we check they sit snugly.
- The dirty filters leave with us and the next visit is booked.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Tell us if a filter is bent or damaged
- Always run the extract while cooking
- Watch for grease drips between visits
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
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.
Clean filters plus regular full cleans keep the system in good health. A maintenance plan that covers both keeps everything on track.

What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Grease filter exchange in Broughton: the local picture
Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Broughton. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Broughton falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
For schools such as Broughton Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Mottisfont Abbey, about 3.9 miles south, is one of the historic houses near Broughton; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Broughton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Common questions in Broughton
Which council inspects kitchens in Broughton?
In Broughton, it’s Test Valley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do you work overnight in Broughton?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Broughton keeps running as normal. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Can we skip TR19 cleans if the filters are changed regularly?
It doesn’t. Some grease passes the filters as vapour and settles in the ducts, so the full system still needs cleaning to TR19.
Where do the greasy filters go?
We take them away to be cleaned and your staff do not have to deal with them. A clean set is fitted in their place.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A canopy that needs a proper clean
- An extract that was undersized from the start
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which need odour control
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Baffle filters
- Restaurants and pubs
- School and hospital kitchens

What affects the quote in Broughton
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- How big the system is
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any previous report or certificate
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
