What affects the quote in Dibden Purlieu
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The condition we find in the survey
- The number of sites or systems
- How big the system is
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- A few general shots of the system
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Kitchen duct cleaning in Dibden Purlieu
The ducts are where most of the grease hides. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, removing thick grease by hand, then using degreasers, hot water or steam to suit the deposit. Any section we cannot reach is recorded on the report and extra access panels can be added. The work covers plenums and filters, canopies and hoods and horizontal duct runs, and people most often call us about stale cooking odours from the system and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Dibden Purlieu, you get one team and one number for every site.
A clean in Dibden Purlieu covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
For a smaller kitchen near Dibden Purlieu, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.

Why it’s worth doing now in Dibden Purlieu
TR19® isn’t law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. The responsible person must 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. Systems on quieter sites still build up dirt and wear, just more slowly.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. In a smaller place like Dibden Purlieu, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- We survey the system, from your photos or on site, canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Let us know about parking and loading
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Dibden Purlieu
At about 2 miles from the coast, Dibden Purlieu is close enough for sea air to matter. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 17 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 11 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Dibden Purlieu. Wherever food is cooked under a canopy, the extract above it gathers grease and needs cleaning on a schedule. Fire safety in Dibden Purlieu falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St. Andrew's Church and Centre, or anywhere in Dibden Purlieu, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Royal South Hants Hospital is the nearest hospital to Dibden Purlieu, about 4 miles north. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Beaulieu Palace House is about 2.9 miles south-west), access may need planning.

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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
You get a photo report after every clean. Before and after pictures show each part of the system, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
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.
Dibden Purlieu questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Dibden Purlieu?
Kitchens in Dibden Purlieu are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Does the sea air around Dibden Purlieu make a difference to kitchen extract cleaning?
It can, as Dibden Purlieu is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
We work around your hours. Most kitchens book us overnight or at weekends and the kitchen is ready to cook when we leave.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?
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.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Fat blocking the kitchen drains
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly.
