Kitchen extract cleaning in Horseport

Kitchen extract cleaning in Horseport, done properly

Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. The certificate and photo report from each clean in Horseport give you that record for the maintenance log. The work covers extract fans, canopies and hoods and horizontal duct runs, and common reasons people get in touch are stale cooking odours from the system and an extract that no longer clears the smoke. Extraction cleaning, hood cleaning and TR19 duct cleaning all end up in the same place: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.

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 Horseport goes well beyond the canopy.

In a small place like Horseport, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings 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, with full insurance on top.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Horseport

It’s common for parts of a duct to have been missed for years. The usual reason is a lack of access panels, so those sections were never reached. Grease in those sections keeps building out of sight.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
  • Rancid smells from grease in the duct
  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19

School kitchens, at schools like Fordingbridge Infant School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What your quote should include

  • Whether a survey comes first
  • What insurance they carry
  • What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

When it’s something else

Kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It will not put right:

  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct
  • Damaged duct sections that need replacing

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Discharge points

Kitchen extract cleaning in Horseport: the local picture

Look up Horseport on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 13 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 7 takeaways and sandwich shops within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Horseport. Wherever food is cooked under a canopy, the extract above it gathers grease and needs cleaning on a schedule. The fire and rescue service for Horseport is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Kitchens in Horseport get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. 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.

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Mary's Church or elsewhere in Horseport, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Breamore House is about 3 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

Why act early in Horseport

If your kitchen in Horseport is past its cleaning date, it’s worth booking now. It takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease. Planning a trip to Horseport ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Why choose Duct Doctor in Horseport

  • A fixed price before any work starts
  • A written report with pictures after each visit
  • One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
  • A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease

Take a look at what affects the cost and our accreditations and certificates.

Keeping the system healthy

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
  • Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
  • Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
  • Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell

The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, and equipment can be switched back on once we have gone.

Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. A filter that’s clean and seated properly stops more grease getting into the plenum, which slows build-up further down the system.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Horseport?

Is a quote from photos possible?

Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.

How the visit works

Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we clear up before we go. Visits to a village like Horseport are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
  2. Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
  3. On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
  4. Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
  5. Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.

How to prepare

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Ask for a quote
