When to call us in Blackfield

A kitchen in Blackfield builds up grease in the same places as any other: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.

What we’re most often called out for:

  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
  • Missing paperwork after a change of operator
  • Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey

If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Beaulieu Palace House is about 3.6 miles west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

Questions to ask before you book

Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Blackfield

Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you have an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer and a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction, we can put it right. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, it’s the job we do every week across Hampshire.

BESA sets minimum intervals by hours of cooking a day: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and yearly for light use, adjusted by what the grease readings show.

For a smaller kitchen near Blackfield, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Blackfield

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The condition of the system
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • The size of the system

You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

Helping us quote

To speed up the quote, please include:

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Blackfield: the local picture

Sea air reaches Blackfield, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. Food Standards Agency records list about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 9 takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Blackfield. Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. Blackfield sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

Church and community hall kitchens, near St Francis or anywhere around Blackfield, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Blackfield is Coldeast, about 5.2 miles north-east.

What a clean will not put right

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
  • A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
  • Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What the work covers

  • Extract fans
  • Vertical risers
  • Discharge points
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Canopies and hoods
  • Plenums and filters

What your team can do, and what needs us

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

What happens if it’s left?

Leaving the clean until the next refit does not make the grease go away. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. Booking now means the visit to Blackfield is planned around you, not forced by a breakdown.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Blackfield: your questions answered

Can you get to a site in Blackfield?

Yes, Blackfield is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

Which environmental health team covers Blackfield?

Kitchens in Blackfield are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.

Can you look after several sites?

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

What accreditations do you hold?

Our work is to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, and certificates go through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009.

What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?

The minimum is set by BESA guidance on daily use, from 3-monthly to 12-monthly. Kitchens that fry or grill a lot may need cleaning sooner, and readings will tell you.

What does TR19 mean?

A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before any work starts.

What do you need from me for a quote?

A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.

What we do, step by step

We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Blackfield when you book.

  1. We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
  2. We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
  3. Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
  4. We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
  5. Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
