How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in Hollywater

Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If you have missing paperwork after a change of operator and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, we can put it right, from discharge points, vertical risers and plenums and filters onwards. When a restaurant in Hollywater asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that is exactly what we do: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.

A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.

For a kitchen in or near Hollywater, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning will not do:

  • Fat blocking the kitchen drains
  • A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
  • A broken extract fan that will not run

If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

What we work on in Hollywater

  • Vertical risers
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Extract fans
  • Plenums and filters
  • Canopies and hoods
  • Discharge points

What happens if it’s left?

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 certificate in the file answers that question. Somewhere as small as Hollywater, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

What you get with us

  • A fixed price before any work starts
  • We diagnose before we treat
  • Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
  • Trading since 2009

For landlords and multi-site operators

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hollywater and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.

What happens on the day

The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system, and we clear up before we go. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Hollywater run smoothly.

  1. We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
  2. We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
  3. With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
  4. The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
  5. Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.

Before we arrive

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Kitchen extracts in Hollywater

The FSA’s data shows about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered in and around Hollywater, up to about a mile and a half out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. It’s East Hampshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hollywater. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Hollywater. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Mark's Sacred Church or elsewhere in Hollywater, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Woodlea Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
  • Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
  • Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
  • Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking

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.

Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. A filter that’s clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, which slows build-up further down the system.

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Hollywater

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • A single visit or a regular plan

We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

What to send for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Any previous report or certificate
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Hollywater?

Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. Filters catch some of it, but never all.

Common reasons sites call us are:

  • Poor airflow at the canopy
  • Missing paperwork after a change of operator
  • Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
  • An inspection that picked up a dirty extract

A hospital like Chase Community Hospital, about 0.6 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
