Kitchen extract cleaning in Godshill, Isle of Wight
Our technicians work in Godshill on kitchen extract cleaning. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports as standard.
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. 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.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across the Isle of Wight. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Godshill
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 hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and are fully insured. Common call-outs are for grease smells coming from the extract and years of baked-on grease in the ducts, across plenums and filters, discharge points and vertical risers. Whether you call it kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning or kitchen duct cleaning, it’s the job we do every week across the Isle of Wight.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so the interval is set by what you cook as well as how long.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What happens on the day
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Godshill run smoothly.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.

FAQs for Godshill
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Godshill?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Godshill. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Who inspects food businesses in Godshill?
Kitchens in Godshill are inspected by Isle of Wight council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Is Godshill in your area?
Yes. We cover Godshill and the rest of the Isle of Wight, within our South East and London area. To book, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
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. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19 as the standard, and many policies require it.
What if parts of the system cannot 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.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Godshill
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Godshill. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. The fire and rescue service for Godshill is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Kitchens in Godshill get their food hygiene inspections from Isle of Wight council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Sheat Manor is about 2.5 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near All Saints' Church, or anywhere in Godshill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Godshill is about 5 miles south of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Whatever kind of site you run in Godshill, kitchen extract cleaning is something we can help with.

Why it’s worth doing now in Godshill
Grease that’s left only gets thicker. BESA guidance says the mean should not go above 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere reaching 500 microns or more needs a spot clean right away. The longer it’s left, the bigger the job becomes. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- A duct that’s holed or coming apart
- A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What the work covers
- Extract fans

Part by part
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Losing a service is not an option for most restaurants and pubs. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
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.
Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Godshill
A kitchen in Godshill builds up grease in the same places as any other: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. The cooler the duct, the more grease drops out of the air.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
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 Godshill, about 3.2 miles north-west.
