TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Broad Oak
Not sure when the extract was last cleaned, or by whom? Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with photos of the canopy and filters, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Broad Oak, usually within one working day. The work covers plenums and filters, extract fans and canopies and hoods, and people most often call us about extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and grease drips onto cooking equipment. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Broad Oak start: a system that’s clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Broad Oak: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
For a kitchen in or near Broad Oak, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Wash or exchange the filters often
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. A TR19 report should record what wasn’t cleaned as well as what was, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, which slows build-up further down the system.
Broad Oak: your questions answered
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Broad Oak in the summer holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Broad Oak. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Can you work in Broad Oak outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Broad Oak does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
Every part the air passes through, as far as access allows. Sections with no access are listed on the report, and extra panels can be fitted.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before we start.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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.
Leave it or put it right?
Grease that is left only gets thicker. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere reaching 500 microns or more needs a spot clean right away. Heavy build-up takes longer to remove than regular cleans. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

How it works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system, and we clear up before we go. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Broad Oak can be planned properly.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
What affects the quote in Broad Oak
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- What state the system is in
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The times the site is available
- The scale of the work
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The site address and the type of premises
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- A few general shots of the system
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Broad Oak, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
Common problems we fix in Broad Oak
Grease filters are the first line of defence, and they’re often the weak point. Damaged, missing or overloaded filters let grease straight past, and it does not stop until it reaches the fan.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Poor airflow at the canopy
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Broad Oak is Fleet Community Hospital, about 3.7 miles north-east.
Before booking anyone
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Proof of insurance
Different parts, different methods
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens often cook for long hours, frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. We clean after close or before opening.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
School, hospital and care home kitchens often have fixed hours and long holidays, so cleans can be planned for holidays or quiet times. The certificate goes straight into the site’s maintenance records.

Every kitchen in that count with a canopy has a full extract system, canopy to discharge, to keep clear of grease. Food hygiene inspections in Broad Oak are the job of Hart council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day.
