Kitchen duct cleaning in Hog Hatch
Across Hog Hatch, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. We survey first and take grease readings, then clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. You get a TR19 certificate and a photo report at the end. If you’re dealing with a kitchen taken over without any extract records and an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19, we can put it right, from plenums and filters, vertical risers and extract fans onwards. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Hog Hatch, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork.
The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, which is why a TR19® clean in Hog Hatch goes well beyond the canopy.
Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like Hog Hatch gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Why act early in Hog Hatch
After a fire, one of the first questions is often when the extract was last cleaned. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. Systems on quieter sites still build up dirt and wear, just more slowly.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

How the visit works
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Around Hog Hatch, access is typically simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.
- 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.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the system
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Common questions in Hog Hatch
Do you cover smaller places like Hog Hatch?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Hog Hatch is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work at weekends in Hog Hatch?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Hog Hatch needn’t be disturbed. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
What paperwork comes with a kitchen extract clean?
You get both a certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log, ready for your insurer or an inspection.
What should I send you?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we will survey first.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
Many policies require TR19 cleaning, and insurers often ask to see the certificate. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
How the job changes from site to site
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Grills, fryers and woks send a lot of fat into the extract, so grease readings help set the right interval.
Canopy and plenum
Grease meets the system first at the canopy and the plenum behind the filters. We clean both inside and out, with the filter housing cleaned too.
Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
Any section without access is marked on the report. That is part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and new access panels can be fitted so the next clean covers it.
Book the next clean before the last one runs out. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
Kitchen extracts in Hog Hatch
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 34 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 8 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Hog Hatch. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Fire safety in Hog Hatch falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Environmental health officers from Waverley council inspect food businesses in Hog Hatch. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
For schools such as Folly Hill Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Fleet Community Hospital (about 4.3 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Farnham Castle is about 0.9 miles south), access may need planning.
