TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in North Fareham

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Kitchen duct cleaning in North Fareham
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in North Fareham, our certificate and photo report give you that record for the maintenance log. The work covers plenums and filters, horizontal duct runs and vertical risers, and the jobs we see most are extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and ductwork thick with old, hardened grease. For TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in North Fareham, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork, wherever you are in Hampshire.
We clean every reachable part of the system in North Fareham: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, then record anything that couldn’t be reached.
Somewhere as small as North Fareham, 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.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What happens if it’s left?
Grease that’s left only gets thicker. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 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. If the system at a site near North Fareham fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.

How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the kitchen extract cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits. For a village or hamlet like North Fareham, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- 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.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Advice
What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in North Fareham
North Fareham is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. There are about 66 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 8 sandwich bars and takeaways across North Fareham and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Those that fry, grill or roast under a canopy need their extracts cleaned at intervals set by how long they cook. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers North Fareham. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Knowle Hospital about 1.6 miles north-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Parish Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in North Fareham, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What the work involves, part by part
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens often cook for long hours, frying and grilling, so their cleaning interval is often 3 or 6 months under BESA guidance. We clean after close or before opening.
Canopy and plenum
Whether it’s one hood or a long island canopy, each section is cleaned and photographed before and after.
When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A damper that sticks or has a damaged link
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

North Fareham: your questions answered
Can a school canteen extract in North Fareham be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around North Fareham, the Food Standards Agency lists about 10 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Does being near the coast affect kitchen extract cleaning in North Fareham?
It can. Salt air reaches North Fareham, which is within about 2 miles of the coast, and it speeds up rust. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Do you cover North Fareham?
Yes. We work in North Fareham and across Hampshire, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Grease in an extract is a known fire risk, which is why many insurers require TR19 cleaning. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in North Fareham?
A kitchen in North Fareham builds up grease in the same places as any other: long horizontal runs, bends, the base of risers and around the fan. Cooler sections of duct collect the most.
Look out for any of the following:
- Rancid smells from grease in the duct
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Harrison Primary School or anywhere near North Fareham, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
What your quote should include
- Whether a survey comes first
- When the next visit should be, and why
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
