What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something 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’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Kitchen duct cleaning in Abbotts Barton
A closed kitchen isn’t earning, so the timing of a clean matters. Cleans are booked for evenings, overnight or weekends, or during holidays where a site closes for them. Equipment is switched off and left to cool, the area is sheeted, and the kitchen is handed back ready to cook. If you’re dealing with a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs, we can help. Some call it canopy cleaning, others extract cleaning or duct cleaning, but a proper TR19® clean in Abbotts Barton covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Abbotts Barton gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Why it’s worth doing now in Abbotts Barton
Grease build-up causes everyday problems too. Filters block, airflow drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier, while the fan works harder to move less air. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
Why us?
- Every job surveyed first
- Full insurance on every job
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
- A fixed price before any work starts

How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. In a smaller place like Abbotts Barton, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear the space around the work

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Abbotts Barton?
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, where burning grease can carry a fire along the ducts and into other parts of the building. That is why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
If you cook for passing trade around Winchester station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Part by part
Extract fan and discharge
Grease that reaches the fan coats the blades and the housing. We isolate it, open it up and degrease it.
Canopy and plenum
The plenum is out of sight behind the filters, so it’s easy to forget. With the filters out, the plenum is scraped and degreased.
Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Abbotts Barton
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
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 to send for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Abbotts Barton: your questions answered
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Abbotts Barton?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Abbotts Barton. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Do you work in villages like Abbotts Barton?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Abbotts Barton is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do we have to close the kitchen for the clean?
Out of hours: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. We need the equipment cool, and we leave the kitchen ready to cook.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19® itself isn’t law. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19 is the benchmark used to show extract grease is under control.
How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?
That comes down mainly to daily cooking hours. BESA’s minimums run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use. We’ll recommend a date after measuring the grease.
What does a TR19 kitchen extract clean include?
Every part the air passes through, as far as access allows. Sections with no access are listed on the report, and extra panels can be fitted.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?
Every clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log so they’re to hand when an insurer asks.
