TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Chillerton
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with photos of the canopy and filters, and you’ll have a fixed quote for kitchen extract cleaning in Chillerton, typically within one working day. If you have a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease, we can put it right. Most calls from Chillerton 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.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Somewhere as small as Chillerton, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Chillerton questions
Will you come out to Chillerton?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Chillerton included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who inspects food businesses in Chillerton?
Kitchens in Chillerton are inspected by Isle of Wight 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.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
No law names TR19 directly, but the responsible person still has a legal duty under the Fire Safety Order 2005. TR19 is the standard insurers and fire officers expect, and many policies require it.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
We work around your hours. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends, so you don’t lose a service.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Chillerton?
Hours of cooking are the biggest factor. Under BESA guidance, heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day means a clean at least every 3 months, moderate use every 6 months and light use every 12. Those are minimums, and grease readings can show a kitchen needs cleaning sooner.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Chillerton and Rookley Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Chillerton kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 3 pubs and bars as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Chillerton. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Chillerton is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Food hygiene inspections in Chillerton are the job of Isle of Wight council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Whitecroft Hospital is the nearest hospital to Chillerton, about 1.5 miles north. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Sheat Manor is about 0.6 miles north-east), access may need planning.
Chillerton is about 3 miles south of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Chillerton gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where needed and a written report with pictures. Across the Isle of Wight, we cover 125 places, and Chillerton is one of them. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, about 15 miles away.
Work in PO30 follows the same survey, fixed quote and written report as everywhere else we cover. That includes premises on Hollow Lane, Greenland Close and Brook Lane and nearby roads. If your site is just outside Chillerton, we cover Gatcombe (1 mile north), Shorwell (2 miles west), Bowcombe (2 miles north-west), Plaish (2 miles north) and Chale Green (2 miles south). Further out, we also cover Newport (3 miles north), Ryde (8 miles north-east), Cowes (7 miles north), Sandown (7 miles east), Shanklin (6 miles east) and Ventnor (6 miles south-east). For island and remote sites, the visit takes a little more planning, so mention it when you ask for a quote.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The size of the system
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The number of sites or systems
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Asking for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Problems your staff have spotted
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: 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 is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What the work involves, part by part
Extract fan and discharge
At the end of the system is the discharge, which can collect grease and stain the surface around it. It’s cleaned as far as safe access allows, and any limits are recorded.
Grease filters
Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning and we offer a filter exchange service for that. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Somewhere like Chillerton, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Putting it off simply moves the grease further down the duct. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
