Kitchen extracts in Odiham
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 10 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Odiham. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. In Odiham, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Hart council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Odiham. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Odiham is Fleet Community Hospital, about 4.5 miles north-east. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Mayhill Junior School or anywhere near Odiham, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Kitchen duct cleaning in Odiham
We treat an extract system much as a doctor treats a patient: diagnose with a survey, treat with a thorough clean, then sign it off. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Common call-outs are for an extract that no longer clears the smoke and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer, across plenums and filters, discharge points and vertical risers. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Odiham, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Hampshire.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
In a smaller place like Odiham, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Odiham
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. That is why controlling extract grease belongs in the fire risk assessment.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Ductwork thick with old, hardened grease
- Grease smells coming from the extract
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
Where a hall near All Saints Church, or anywhere in Odiham, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Before booking anyone
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
Different parts, different methods
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Restaurants and pubs tend to cook long hours with plenty of frying and grilling, so their cleaning interval is often 3 or 6 months under BESA guidance. Cleans are done after close, overnight or before opening.
Ductwork and risers
Bends and changes of direction trap more grease than straight runs. Those are among the points where we take readings before and after, so the report shows the difference.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What a clean won’t put right
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- An undersized canopy or fan
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What the work covers
- Extract fans
- Discharge points
- Canopies and hoods
- Horizontal duct runs
- Vertical risers
- Plenums and filters
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Around Odiham, access is normally simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.
Advice
Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Odiham
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- The condition of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The size of the system
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

Fire safety enforcement in Odiham is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can you get to a site in Odiham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.

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.

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What happens if it’s left?
Any food business in Odiham can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and they look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment, extraction included. A clean extract is one less thing to worry about on the day. Even a site near Odiham that’s only busy part of the week needs its system checked on a schedule.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
