Kitchen extract cleaning for sites in North Gorley

How it works

Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like North Gorley.

  1. Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
  2. Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
  3. We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
  4. The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. Then the clean bill of health: readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next date.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Advice

How we handle kitchen extract cleaning in North Gorley

We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. That clean bill of health comes as a TR19 certificate and a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers plenums and filters, discharge points and horizontal duct runs, and the jobs we see most are ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer. Canopy cleaning, extract cleaning and duct cleaning are often used to mean the same thing, but a proper TR19® clean in North Gorley covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.

Each job starts with a look at where grease has built up: wet film or deposit thickness readings show which parts of the duct need the most attention, and readings afterwards go into your report.

In a village or hamlet like North Gorley, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.

We have been trading since 2009, and we are 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.

North Gorley kitchens: local notes

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 pubs, bars and clubs across North Gorley and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Food hygiene inspections in North Gorley are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Fire safety in North Gorley falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

Term dates shape school work: for a school like Hyde Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Breamore House is about 4.5 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Ascension or elsewhere in North Gorley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

What kitchen extract cleaning can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Faulty fire dampers in the duct
  • A canopy that’s too small or a system that was badly designed
  • Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on in North Gorley

  • Canopies and hoods
  • Plenums and filters
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Extract fans
  • Vertical risers
  • Discharge points

Looking after it afterwards

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
  • Book the next clean before the date on the report
  • Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
  • Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log

After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, giving you before and after readings alongside the photos. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Clean the grease filters often, not just on clean day. 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

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

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.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in North Gorley

Is North Gorley within the area you cover?

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 work overnight in North Gorley?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in North Gorley keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.

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.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Usually, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.

Will I get a certificate after the clean?

You get both a certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log, ready for your insurer or an inspection.

What’s TR19?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.

How long does a kitchen extract clean take?

It takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. The survey tells us how long your system will need.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.

Part by part

Restaurant and pub kitchens

High-heat cooking loads the extract with grease, and measured readings show whether the minimum interval is enough.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Institutional kitchens tend to cook to set hours, so cleans can be planned for holidays or quiet times. The certificate and report suit estates and compliance files.

Why act early in North Gorley

Every week without a clean adds another layer. Under BESA guidance, grease shouldn’t exceed a mean of 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Heavy build-up takes longer to remove than regular cleans. With notice, the visit to North Gorley can be fitted around your bookings and events.

The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
