About our kitchen extract cleaning in Barton on Sea

Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Barton on Sea, typically within one working day. The work covers vertical risers, extract fans and discharge points, and people most often call us about a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction and years of baked-on grease in the ducts. Most calls from Barton on Sea come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.

Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and the same readings after the clean show the result.

Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like Barton on Sea gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.

We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Barton on Sea

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Part by part

Canopy and plenum

Behind the grease filters sits the plenum, which daily cleaning never reaches. We take the filters out and clean the plenum and housing thoroughly.

Restaurant and pub kitchens

High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.

When to call us in Barton on Sea

We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. The usual reason is a lack of access panels, so those sections were never reached. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.

Look out for these warning signs:

  • Stale cooking odours from the system
  • Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
  • Poor airflow at the canopy
  • Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer

A hospital like Lymington New Forest Hospital, about 5.5 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

What your quote should include

  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • Proof of insurance
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Aftercare tips

To keep the system working properly between visits:

  • Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
  • Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
  • Keep the baffle filters clean
  • Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit

Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after pictures show each part of the system, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.

Keep the fan on throughout service. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • What state the system is in
  • Parking and loading at the site

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it

Need a price for kitchen extract cleaning? Please phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site. We’ll talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before anything is booked.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. In a place like Barton on Sea, we fit the visit around your hours.

  1. First comes a survey of the whole system, by photos or a visit.
  2. We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
  3. With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
  4. Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
  5. Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

How to get a quote

For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Barton on Sea

Which council inspects kitchens in Barton on Sea?

In Barton on Sea, it’s New Forest 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 in villages like Barton on Sea?

Yes. Barton on Sea is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

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.

Are you accredited for kitchen extract cleaning?

We clean to BESA TR19® Grease as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, with certificates issued through the BESCA portal. We have been trading since 2009.

How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?

The minimum is set by BESA guidance on daily use, from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Heavy frying and grilling can mean shorter intervals, and readings will tell you.

Does the law say I must clean to TR19?

TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve dealt with extract grease.

How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?

Allow anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. The survey tells us how long your system will need.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
