The process

Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Canada.

  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. After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
  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

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Getting a quote

Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll usually have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Canada

A kitchen extract system is far more than the canopy you can see. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and each part collects grease. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. The work covers horizontal duct runs, vertical risers and discharge points, and people most often call us about an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19 and poor airflow at the canopy. Most calls from Canada come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.

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 Canada goes well beyond the canopy.

Work in a small place like Canada starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Canada?

In Canada, as anywhere, grease gathers where the air slows down: in long flat runs, at bends and changes of direction, and in the fan housing. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.

Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • Rancid smells from grease in the duct
  • Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
  • Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit

For schools such as Wellow School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Before you book anyone

  • What records you will receive afterwards
  • What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Our hiring checklist

What affects the quote in Canada

The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • How big the system is

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.

Helping us quote

We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:

  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • The site address and the type of premises

We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Canada: the local picture

The Food Standards Agency lists about 3 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Canada. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in Canada are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Canada. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

A hospital like Tatchbury Mount Hospital, about 3.5 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Landford Manor, about 2 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses near Canada; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Canada is about 5 miles north-west of Totton, in Hampshire. Anywhere in SO51, we cover kitchen extract cleaning for commercial sites. Canada is one of 683 towns, villages and districts in Hampshire we cover for commercial clients. You can also see our page for Southampton, roughly 9 miles from Canada.

Here we cover the SO51 postcode area for kitchen extract cleaning. Other places close to Canada include West Wellow (1 mile north), Blackhill (1 mile east), East Wellow (1 mile east), Newbridge (2 miles south) and Plaitford Green (2 miles north). We also work in nearby towns such as Winchester (14 miles north-east), Eastleigh (11 miles east), Totton (5 miles south-east), Chandler's Ford (9 miles east), Hedge End (13 miles east) and Lymington (14 miles south).

What’s near Canada

In Canada, that means kitchens and buildings near Rockingham Arms and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Romsey station, about 4.6 miles north-east. A little further out are Tatchbury Mount Hospital (3.5 miles south-east). For a walk, there’s Copythorne Common.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.

Between visits

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
  • Run the extract fan throughout cooking
  • Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
  • Wash or exchange the filters often

Any section without access is marked on the report. That’s part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and new access panels can be fitted so the next clean covers it.

Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.

When it’s something else

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:

  • Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct
  • Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What the work covers

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

Canada questions

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

Kitchens in Canada are inspected by Test Valley council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

Can a school canteen extract in Canada be done out of term time?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Around Canada, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.

How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?

Allow a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.

What do you do with what you remove?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.

How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?

BESA guidance sets minimums by daily cooking hours: every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Grease readings can show a shorter interval is needed.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
