Kitchen extract cleaning in Lyndhurst, Hampshire
Kitchen extract cleaning in Lyndhurst from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Lyndhurst
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Lyndhurst, normally within one working day. Typical jobs include cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey and an overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer, on discharge points, horizontal duct runs and extract fans. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Lyndhurst start: a system that’s clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Lyndhurst goes well beyond the canopy.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Lyndhurst gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Why it’s worth doing now in Lyndhurst
A clogged extract does not only raise the fire risk. Filters block, airflow drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier, while the fan works harder to move less air. Smells, dripping grease and condensation often follow. It’s better to plan the work at a site near Lyndhurst than wait for a failure.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site rules, permits and inductions
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
Common questions in Lyndhurst
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Lyndhurst during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Lyndhurst. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Is Lyndhurst within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Lyndhurst included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Overnight, weekend and between-service cleans are all possible, so you do not lose a service.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
What should I send you?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Around Lyndhurst, access is typically simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

How the job changes from site to site
Restaurant and pub kitchens
High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, so grease readings help set the right interval.
Grease filters
Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.
Kitchen extracts in Lyndhurst
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 21 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Lyndhurst. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Lyndhurst. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Lyndhurst. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

For schools such as St Michael and All Angels CofE Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What a clean won’t put right
Kitchen extract cleaning cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not put right:
- A broken extract fan that will not run
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on in Lyndhurst
- Canopies and hoods
- Vertical risers
- Plenums and filters
- Extract fans
- Horizontal duct runs
- Discharge points
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
Every clean ends with a photo report. Before and after pictures show each part of the system, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.
Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
