Kitchen extract cleaning in Bepton

When it’s something else

We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct
  • Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
  • Damaged duct sections that need replacing

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on in Bepton

  • Vertical risers
  • Plenums and filters

Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Bepton

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. We are often asked to deal with cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and poor airflow at the canopy, across discharge points, plenums and filters and horizontal duct runs. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.

The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, which is why a TR19® clean in Bepton goes well beyond the canopy.

For a kitchen in or near Bepton, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part

Grease filters

Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that do not.

Restaurant and pub kitchens

Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, so their cleaning interval is often 3 or 6 months under BESA guidance. We clean after close or before opening.

Questions from Bepton

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Bepton?

Food hygiene inspections in Bepton are carried out by Chichester council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.

Will you come out to Bepton?

Yes, Bepton is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

What is TR19?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.

Where does the waste go?

It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.

Which sectors do you work in?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.

What do you do to protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.

Kitchen extracts in Bepton

Fire safety in Bepton falls to West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. About 48 miles out from central London, Bepton is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.

Volunteers running a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Bepton, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Historic houses near Bepton, such as Cowdray House about 2.7 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Bepton is Midhurst Community Hospital, about 3 miles north-east.

Bepton is about 8 miles south-east of Petersfield, in West Sussex. Across the GU29 area, we can take on kitchen extract cleaning. Our area takes in 371 places across West Sussex, from busy centres to quieter spots. Our Portsmouth page covers sites nearby, about 17 miles away.

Aftercare tips

A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:

  • Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
  • Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
  • Switch the fan on before cooking starts
  • Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works

If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.

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.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning

There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • Travel, parking and unloading
  • How easy every part is to reach

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

What to send for a quote:

  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.

Leave it or put it right?

After a fire, one of the first questions is often when the extract was last cleaned. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Bepton, let us know and we’ll plan around it.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
  2. We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
  3. We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
  4. The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
