What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Hattingley
Environmental health officers from East Hampshire council inspect food businesses in Hattingley. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hattingley
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

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.
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. We clean what can be reached and note anything that cannot.
FAQs for Hattingley
Which fire service covers Hattingley?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Hattingley. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Which council inspects kitchens in Hattingley?
Food hygiene inspections in Hattingley are carried out by East Hampshire council. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
What information do you need?
Some photos and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Hattingley?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. If photos aren’t enough, we will survey first.
Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Hattingley
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
- A single visit or a regular plan
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
For kitchen extract cleaning in Hattingley, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
Honest limits
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning won’t do:
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Extract fans
- Canopies and hoods
- Horizontal duct runs
- Plenums and filters
- Discharge points
- Vertical risers
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Hattingley?
We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. The usual reason is a lack of access panels, so nobody could get to them. That hidden grease keeps building where nobody looks.
What we are most often called out for:
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Andrew or elsewhere in Hattingley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
What your quote should include
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Hattingley before we set off.
- You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- We take grease readings at set points and give you a fixed quote.
- On the night, the equipment is off and cool and the kitchen is sheeted.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Clear loose items from the work area
