Kitchen extract cleaning in Lower Green, Hampshire
Need kitchen extract cleaning in Lower Green? We diagnose first, fix the price and book the work around your hours, then sign off with a report and pictures.
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
How it works
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Lower Green knowing what to expect.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about parking and loading
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lower Green
The canopy over the range is only the start of a kitchen extract system. Behind it sit the plenum and grease filters, then the ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, and grease settles in every one of them. Our clean follows the air from canopy to discharge, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re often asked to deal with fat running down the canopy edge and an inspection that picked up a dirty extract, across horizontal duct runs, extract fans and plenums and filters. Kitchens in Lower Green book us for TR19 cleaning for three reasons: the insurer asked, the EHO asked, or the canopy is dripping. Either way, the answer is the same: a proper clean and the paperwork to match.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Somewhere as small as Lower Green, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How the job changes from site to site
Restaurant and pub kitchens
A pub or restaurant cannot afford to cancel a service for a clean. We work overnight and at weekends where that suits, and hand back a clean kitchen ready to cook.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight, so residents and patients are not disturbed.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Lower Green?
The reason for all this is fire. Flames from a pan or grill can be pulled into the canopy by the fan, where burning grease can carry a fire along the ducts and into other parts of the building. For a kitchen in Lower Green, keeping that fuel under control is part of the fire risk assessment.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Lower Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Questions to ask before booking
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether a survey comes first
Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Wipe the canopy down at the end of each day
- Keep grease collection points emptied
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
Any section without access is marked on the report. That’s 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.
Leave it or put it right?
Environmental health officers inspect food businesses, in Lower Green as everywhere else, and they look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment, extraction included. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster. In a place like Lower Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
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 unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Lower Green and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Lower Green
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Lower Green. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Food hygiene inspections in Lower Green are the job of East Hampshire council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

Lower Green questions
Is Lower Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Lower Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you come to Lower Green after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Lower Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, so many insurers want evidence it’s being cleaned to TR19. Each clean gives you a certificate and photo report to show them.
