Kitchen extract cleaning in Fyfield, Hampshire
For kitchen extract cleaning in Fyfield, one call is all it takes, from survey to sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
What the work involves, part by part
Canopy and plenum
The plenum is out of sight behind the filters, so it’s easy to forget. With the filters out, the plenum is scraped and degreased.
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease runs down their walls and pools at the base. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.
About our kitchen extract cleaning in Fyfield
Duct Doctor has been cleaning kitchen extract systems since 2009. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. If you have a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs, we can put it right, from discharge points, canopies and hoods and vertical risers onwards. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Fyfield start: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Fyfield goes well beyond the canopy.
Somewhere as small as Fyfield, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Fyfield?

Can you price the work without visiting?
Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Where we cannot see enough, we arrange a survey.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
How long does a kitchen extract clean take?
Length of duct, grease levels and access all affect it. As a guide, it takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What should I send you?
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.
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 before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Visits to a village like Fyfield are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before work begins.
- 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.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

What affects the quote in Fyfield
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
- A single visit or a regular plan

Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The site address and the type of premises

- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Fyfield, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day.
Honest limits
Kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- A broken extract fan that won’t run
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Fyfield: the local picture
Food hygiene inspections in Fyfield are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss.

Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
The certificate records when the clean was done, where and by whom. Keep it in the maintenance log with your fire risk assessment so it’s ready when anyone asks to see it.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Common problems we fix in Fyfield
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Fat running down the canopy edge
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Nicholas or anywhere around Fyfield, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
