Grease filter exchange in Nately Scures
Each visit is quick and tidy. The greasy filters come out, clean ones go in, and we check they’re seated with no gaps. Anything that needs attention is pointed out. If you have filters that come out of the sink still dirty and filters so greasy the air can barely pass, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Part by part
The plenum
A greasy plenum is a sign filters have been left too long, or that a full clean is due.
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens
Kitchens that fry and grill all day load their filters fast. They often need the shortest exchange interval.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Smell complaints that need odour control equipment
- Extraction problems caused by the fan rather than the filters
- A canopy that does not capture the vapour properly
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Where we work
- Restaurants and pubs
- Island canopies
- School and hospital kitchens

Why it’s worth doing now in Nately Scures
Grease dripping from the canopy is a sign the filters can’t hold any more. Drips land on surfaces and equipment below, which an EHO may well notice. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Nately Scures kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 10 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 4 sandwich bars and takeaways in Nately Scures and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Clogged filters slow the airflow, and busy kitchens like these clog them fast. Food hygiene inspections in Nately Scures are the job of Basingstoke and Deane council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Nately Scures. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Where a hall near Church of St. Nicholas, or anywhere in Nately Scures, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (The Vyne is about 4.9 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

Local landmarks in Nately Scures
Nately Scures’s nearest station is Hook station, about 1.2 miles east. A little further out are Basing House (2.8 miles west) and Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital (5.3 miles west). The countryside around Nately Scures includes The Mill Field and Dogmersfield Lake.
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep canopy surfaces wiped down
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is in use
- Never leave gaps in the filter bank
- Report damaged filters so they can be replaced
Between visits, check that every filter is still in place. Gaps let grease into the plenum so tell us if you need a replacement.
A kitchen that is getting busier needs its filters changed more often. Adjusting the schedule now prevents a build-up in the ducts.
Common problems we fix in Nately Scures
Kitchens in Nately Scures, as everywhere, find filter washing slips down the list on busy weeks. A missed wash or two is all it takes for filters to fill with grease.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Grease collecting in the filter channels
- Hand-washed filters that still look greasy
- Blocked baffle filters
- Missing filters in the filter bank
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital about 5.3 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Nately Scures: your questions answered
Can a school canteen extract in Nately Scures be done out of term time?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Nately Scures. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Do you work in villages like Nately Scures?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Nately Scures included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What happens to the dirty filters?
We take them away to be cleaned and your staff do not have to deal with them. Clean filters go straight in.
Which records should we keep?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Do you deal with bent or broken filters?
A badly damaged filter should be replaced. We’ll show you which ones on the visit.
How it works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the number of filters. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Nately Scures.
- First, we check the canopies and the filters in them.
- Any damaged or missing filters are noted.
- Greasy filters are swapped for clean ones.
- The filters are checked for fit before we go.
- Anything that needs attention, such as a greasy plenum, is pointed out.
Getting ready for the visit
