Kitchen extract cleaning in Newfound, done properly
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and a claim can be refused or reduced without it. For a kitchen in Newfound, our certificate and photo report give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. Common call-outs are for extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and grease dripping from the canopy or filters, on canopies and hoods, extract fans and discharge points. Kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning, extraction cleaning: whatever you call it, in Newfound it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.
Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: grease readings at set points tell us where the heaviest deposits are, and the same readings after the clean show the result.
Somewhere as small as Newfound, 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, whatever the size of the place.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by kitchen extract cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- A fan motor that has burnt out
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Newfound: your questions answered
Will you come out to Newfound?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Newfound in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 4 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Newfound. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
Everything from canopy to discharge: the canopy, the plenum behind the filters, the filters, horizontal ducts, vertical risers, the fan and the discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we cannot reach is recorded on the report.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Typically, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we typically come back within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
How long does it take to clean a kitchen extract system?
That depends on the size of the system, the amount of grease and the number of access points. As a guide, it takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Why act early in Newfound
Every week without a clean adds another layer. BESA guidance says the mean should not go above 200 microns between cleans, and anywhere reaching 500 microns or more needs a spot clean straight away. The longer it’s left, the bigger the job becomes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Newfound is calmer for everyone.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Grease, kitchens and Newfound
Look up Newfound on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 4 takeaways in and around Newfound, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Newfound. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Newfound, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane 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.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Park Prewett Hospital is the nearest hospital to Newfound, about 2.6 miles north-east. The Vyne, about 4.8 miles north-east, is one of the historic houses near Newfound; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Oakley Infant School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Newfound is about 3 miles west of Basingstoke, in Hampshire.

For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
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.
What affects the cost of kitchen extract cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The size of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Where the site is and how we reach it
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Give the canopy a daily wipe
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date is not missed.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before we start, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Newfound can be planned properly.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
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.
Canopy and plenum
Behind the grease filters sits the plenum, which daily cleaning never reaches. With the filters out, the plenum is scraped and degreased.
