- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving the clean until the next refit doesn’t make the grease go away. Over time, soft grease bakes into a harder, thicker crust, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. Around Cowplain, a kitchen or building out of action is missed right away.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Cowplain
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Typical jobs include heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history, on plenums and filters, discharge points and extract fans. Most calls from Cowplain 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.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Cowplain: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like Cowplain gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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, next to our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Cowplain
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 12 pubs, bars and clubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Cowplain. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Cowplain. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Havant council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Cowplain. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
A hospital like Havant War Memorial Hospital, about 3.5 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before we start.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
The report gives a recommended date for the next clean, based on your cooking hours and the grease we measured. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date is not missed.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.
Different parts, different methods
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.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy catches the vapour, and the plenum behind the filters is where it first condenses. Both are scraped and degreased inside and out, with the filter housing cleaned too.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Where we work
- Extract fans
- Vertical risers
- Canopies and hoods
- Plenums and filters
- Discharge points
- Horizontal duct runs
For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
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 can quote for the whole system.
Common questions in Cowplain
Which fire authority looks after Cowplain?
Fire safety enforcement in Cowplain is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can you get to a site in Cowplain?

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What should I send you?
Some photos and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
