Kitchen Extract Cleaning in Cadnam
Specialist kitchen extract cleaning for Cadnam: diagnosis first, then a fixed quote, the work and a report with photos. Call for a fixed quote.
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
Different parts, different methods
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. School holidays are an easy time to do it.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, and measured readings show whether the minimum interval is enough.
How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Cadnam
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: 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. The work covers plenums and filters, horizontal duct runs and discharge points, and the jobs we see most are a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction and grease dripping from the canopy or filters. Some call it canopy cleaning, others extract cleaning or duct cleaning, but in Cadnam, as everywhere, the insurer wants the full system cleaned, not just the hood.
Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.
In a village or hamlet like Cadnam, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- How many systems or sites are involved
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
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:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The site address and the type of premises
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Why act early in Cadnam
TR19® isn’t law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, which in a kitchen includes the grease in the extract. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- Fire dampers that will not close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- A duct that is holed or coming apart
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Cadnam
Do you work at weekends in Cadnam?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Cadnam keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Cadnam?
Cadnam is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
What do I get after the clean?
A TR19 certificate and a photo report. Certificates are issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, and the report includes before and after photos, grease readings and the recommended next clean date.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
Length of duct, grease levels and access all affect it. Most jobs take one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.
Can you quote from photos?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Cadnam
The reason for all this is fire. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, where burning grease can carry a fire along the ducts and into other parts of the building. That’s why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Cadnam, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- What insurance they carry
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
The certificate records when the clean was done, where and by whom. Keep it in the maintenance log with your fire risk assessment so it’s ready when anyone asks to see it.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
The process
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Visits to a village like Cadnam are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
