Kitchen extract cleaning in Carter's Clay, done properly
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Send a few pictures of the canopy and filters when you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Carter's Clay, normally within one working day. If you are dealing with an inspection that picked up a dirty extract and fat running down the canopy edge, we can help, from plenums and filters, extract fans and canopies and hoods onwards. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, in Carter's Clay it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.
Most kitchens in Carter's Clay fall into one of BESA’s three bands: every 3 months for 12–16 hours, every 6 months for 6–12 hours and every 12 months for 2–6 hours, adjusted by what the grease readings show.
In a small place like Carter's Clay, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Carter's Clay run smoothly.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and send you a fixed quote.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, pictures taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Travel, parking and unloading
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The postcode and the type of business
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Carter's Clay?
What’s on the menu matters as much as how much is cooked. Fryers, grills and open flames throw much more fat into the extract than gentler cooking, which is why grease readings matter more than the calendar.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
For schools such as Awbridge Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
Comparing quotes

- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
Honest limits
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- A grease trap that needs emptying
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Carter's Clay
Which fire service covers Carter's Clay?
Carter's Clay 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.
Do you cover smaller places like Carter's Clay?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Carter's Clay included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Measured grease levels set the real interval.
Will I get a certificate after the 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.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it 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.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
What the work involves, part by part
Grease filters
We clean the grease filters as part of the job, and put back so they seat correctly. We will tell you if any need replacing.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
A pub or restaurant can’t afford to cancel a service for a clean. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
