How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. Tell us when your site near Headley Down is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- 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.
- 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
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Headley Down
We’ve been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers canopies and hoods, vertical risers and discharge points, and people most often call us about a smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction and a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Headley Down, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Kitchens around a place like Headley Down are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the quote in Headley Down
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Travel, parking and unloading
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Headley Down kitchens: local notes
It’s East Hampshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Headley Down. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Headley Down sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of All Saints or anywhere around Headley Down, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like The Holme Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Headley Down is Chase Community Hospital, about 2.8 miles west.

Headley Down: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Headley Down?
Yes, Headley Down is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you work in Headley Down outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Headley Down needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
Every part the air passes through, as far as access allows. Sections with no access are listed on the report, and extra panels can be fitted.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Headley Down?
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 work begins.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
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 an insurer may refuse or reduce a claim without it.
Part by part
Ductwork and risers
Long flat runs of duct are where grease collects. We open access panels along the route and clean each section, recording any that cannot be reached.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, so their cleaning interval is often 3 or 6 months under BESA guidance. We clean after close or before opening.
What kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning will not do:
- Extraction that cannot cope with the cooking because of its design
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- A fan motor that has burnt out
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What the work covers
- Canopies and hoods
- Plenums and filters
- Horizontal duct runs
- Extract fans
- Vertical risers
- Discharge points
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Keep the baffle filters clean
- Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
The report gives a recommended date for the next clean, based on your cooking hours and the grease we measured. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date isn’t missed.
Wipe the canopy down regularly and empty grease troughs or collection points. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
For landlords and multi-site operators
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
