Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Allbrook gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.

Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, so you can start cooking as normal.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Why deal with it now?
There’s no law that names TR19, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 still applies. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. Even a site near Allbrook that is only busy part of the week needs its system checked on a schedule.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll talk you through it.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Allbrook
The Food Standards Agency lists about 25 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 3 hotels and B&Bs as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Allbrook. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Fire safety in Allbrook 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. Kitchens in Allbrook get their food hygiene inspections from Eastleigh council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Historic houses near Allbrook, such as South Stoneham House about 3.7 miles south, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

Bursars and site managers at schools such as Scantabout Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

FAQs for Allbrook
Will you come out to Allbrook?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Allbrook is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Allbrook?
The local authority for Allbrook is Eastleigh council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you quote from photos?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Many insurers ask for proof of regular cleaning to TR19, and many policies require it. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.

When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- An undersized canopy or fan
- A broken extract fan that will not run
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Plenums and filters
- Horizontal duct runs
- Extract fans
- Canopies and hoods
- Discharge points
- Vertical risers
How the visit works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the kitchen extract cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. Visits to a place like Allbrook are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
