How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Hannington
A kitchen extract system is far more than the canopy you can see. Beyond the filters run the plenum, the ducts and risers, the fan and the point where air leaves the building, and grease settles in every one of them. A TR19® Grease clean deals with the whole route, not only the parts on show. The work covers horizontal duct runs, extract fans and canopies and hoods, and the jobs we see most are years of baked-on grease in the ducts and a kitchen taken over without any extract records. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Hannington, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Hampshire.
Before we clean, we look at where the grease is: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and readings afterwards go into your report.
Somewhere as small as Hannington, 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Leave it or put it right?
TR19® isn’t law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. The responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. Cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve done it. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
- Fire dampers that will not close (that needs damper testing and remedials)
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What the work covers
- Discharge points
- Plenums and filters
- Extract fans
- Canopies and hoods

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The condition of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The scale of the work
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
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.
Hannington: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Hannington?
Yes. Hannington is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which council inspects kitchens in Hannington?
That is Basingstoke and Deane council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hannington. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
The legal duty sits in the Fire Safety Order 2005 rather than in TR19 itself. TR19 is the industry benchmark for meeting that duty in a kitchen extract, and many insurers ask for proof of it.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.
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 it take to clean a kitchen extract system?
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.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
It depends on how many hours a day the kitchen cooks. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. Your report gives a recommended next clean date.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you will get one fixed quote.

How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Hannington and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- 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.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. A filter that is clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
