Kitchen extract cleaning in Bar End, Hampshire
Looking for kitchen extract cleaning in Bar End? We survey first, send you a fixed quote and work around your opening hours, then sign off with a report and pictures.
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- Stale cooking odours from the system
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
Aftercare tips
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Never cook with filters missing or out of place
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
The certificate records when the clean was done, where and by whom. File it with the fire risk assessment and the maintenance log so it’s ready when anyone asks to see it.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. BESA guidance links the minimum interval to daily cooking hours, so a change in hours may mean a change in interval, and grease readings will show it.
Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Bar End
The canopy over the range is only the start of a kitchen extract system. Beyond the filters run the plenum, the ducts and risers, the fan and the point where air leaves the building, and grease settles in every one of them. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. If you are dealing with a kitchen taken over without any extract records and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease, we can put it right. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Bar End usually mean the kitchen extract, and that’s exactly what we do: the whole run from hood to roof, cleaned to TR19® Grease.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and readings afterwards go into your report.
In a small place like Bar End, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Different parts, different methods
Ductwork and risers
Long flat runs of duct are where grease collects. Each run is cleaned through its access panels, recording any that cannot be reached.
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge is where air leaves the building, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. We clean it where it can be safely reached, and any limits are recorded.
Grease, kitchens and Bar End
Look up Bar End on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 114 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 25 sandwich bars and takeaways in Bar End and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Bar End. 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. Food hygiene inspections in Bar End are the job of Winchester City council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like All Saints Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St John's Rooms And Chapel is the nearest hospital to Bar End, about 0.6 miles north. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near All Saints or elsewhere in Bar End, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Around Bar End
In Bar End, that means kitchens and buildings near Leigh House Hospital, St. Cross Park and Heart in Hand pub. For rail, the closest station is Winchester station, about 1.2 miles north-west.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
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’s our job.

FAQs for Bar End
Can the work in Bar End be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Bar End needn’t be disturbed. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which fire service covers Bar End?
Bar End is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
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.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
The whole system: the canopy, the plenum behind the filters, the filters, horizontal ducts, vertical risers, the fan and the discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we can’t reach is recorded on the report.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
What do I get after the clean?
You get both a certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log so they’re to hand when an insurer asks.
What accreditations do you hold?
We’re members of Vent Hygiene Elite, the scheme run by BESCA, and we clean to BESA TR19® Grease. We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 too, and we’re fully insured.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Bar End run smoothly.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Ask for 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.

What affects the quote in Bar End
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
- The condition we find in the survey
- How easy every part is to reach
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
