Kitchen extract cleaning across Priddy's Hard

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Send a few photos of the canopy and filters when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll come back with a fixed price for the work in Priddy's Hard, normally within one working day. The work covers vertical risers, plenums and filters and horizontal duct runs, and people most often call us about fat running down the canopy edge and rancid smells from grease in the duct. Whether you call it kitchen extract cleaning, TR19 cleaning or kitchen duct cleaning, in Priddy's Hard it means the same thing to us: the whole system, cleaned and certificated.

We clean every reachable part of the system in Priddy's Hard: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.

In a village or hamlet like Priddy's Hard, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically 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.

Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Priddy's Hard

Sea air reaches Priddy's Hard, which sits within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. Food Standards Agency data counts about 157 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 59 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Priddy's Hard. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. It’s Gosport council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Priddy's Hard. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Vincent College, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Priddy's Hard, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What we do, step by step

There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Priddy's Hard.

  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. After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
  4. The treatment: heavy grease scraped out, then every part degreased to TR19® Grease.
  5. The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

How to get a quote

Signs you need kitchen extract cleaning in Priddy's Hard

It’s common for parts of a duct to have been missed for years. Most of the time it’s because there were never enough access panels, so nobody could get to them. That hidden grease keeps building where nobody looks.

What we’re most often called out for:

  • A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
  • Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
  • Grease smells coming from the extract
  • Grease dripping from the canopy or filters

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Gosport War Memorial Hospital (about 1.4 miles south-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • How they set the interval to the next visit
  • How VAT is shown on the quote
  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

Part by part

Restaurant and pub kitchens

Grills, fryers and woks send a lot of fat into the extract, and measured readings show whether the minimum interval is enough.

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Even a kitchen that cooks only a few hours a day needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance. Holidays make it simple to schedule.

Why deal with it now?

Grease build-up causes everyday problems too. 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 worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.

When something else is needed

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that is for a ductwork contractor)
  • Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
  • Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before you book.

What the work covers

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

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

Priddy's Hard: your questions answered

Can a school canteen extract in Priddy's Hard be done out of term time?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 26 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Priddy's Hard. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will fit the work in.

Do you work in villages like Priddy's Hard?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

How often should a kitchen extract be cleaned?

Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours, 6 months for 6 to 12 hours and 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Measured grease levels set the real interval.

Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?

A TR19 Grease clean covers the full extract route, not just the canopy. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where needed.

What do you do with what you remove?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Often, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.

What should I send you?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few photos and any previous report.
