Kitchen extract cleaning in Bishop's Sutton, done properly
Every time food is cooked, warm vapour carries fat up into the extract. It cools inside the duct and settles as a sticky film that thickens month by month. That film is fuel, and a proper clean removes it before it becomes a fire risk. Common call-outs are for grease smells coming from the extract and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit, across extract fans, plenums and filters and discharge points. When a restaurant in Bishop's Sutton asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is exactly what we do: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
For a kitchen in or near Bishop's Sutton, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Bishop's Sutton: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers Bishop's Sutton?
That’s Winchester City council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bishop's Sutton. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can you work in Bishop's Sutton outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Bishop's Sutton does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?
Everything from canopy to discharge: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Any part without access is noted.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract 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 affects the quote in Bishop's Sutton
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The scale of the work
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any previous report or certificate
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line 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 normally come back within one working day.
The process
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Bishop's Sutton.
- 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.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear loose items from the work area
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, so you can start cooking as normal.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.

Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. The fire and rescue service for Bishop's Sutton is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Bishop's Sutton. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Perins School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Bishop's Sutton
Grease filters are the first line of defence, and they’re often the weak point. Filters that are bent, badly fitted, missing or left uncleaned let more fat into the plenum and duct, and from there it travels on to the fan.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Bishop's Sutton, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Questions to ask before booking
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- If they look at the system before pricing
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A broken extract fan that will not run
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What staff can safely do
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 they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
