Kitchen Extract Cleaning in Purbrook
For kitchen extract cleaning in Purbrook, one call is all it takes: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
- Grease dripping from the canopy or filters
What the work involves, part by part
Ductwork and risers
Risers take the extract up through floors to roof level, and grease often collects at the bottom of them. Access panels along the riser let us clean it in sections.
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Busy restaurant and pub kitchens often cook for long hours, frying and grilling, which can put them in BESA’s 3 or 6-monthly bands. Cleans are done after close, overnight or before opening.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Purbrook
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with photos of the canopy and filters, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Purbrook, normally within one working day. Common call-outs are for a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and poor airflow at the canopy, on canopies and hoods, extract fans and discharge points. Some call it canopy cleaning, others extract cleaning or duct cleaning, but a proper TR19® clean in Purbrook covers all of it, from the hood to the fan.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, so that’s where most of the work in Purbrook goes.
For a pub, café or restaurant in a town like Purbrook, losing a day’s trade to cleaning isn’t an option, so the work is done after service, overnight or on a closed day. By the next service, the kitchen is ready to cook in again.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Purbrook
At about 2 miles from the coast, Purbrook is close enough for sea air to matter. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 12 pubs and bars in and around Purbrook, up to about a mile and a half out. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. It’s Havant council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Purbrook. 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.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Purbrook Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Purbrook (Warblington Castle is about 3.3 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care.
Purbrook is about 2 miles west of Havant, in Hampshire. If you need kitchen extract cleaning in Purbrook, please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for a fixed quote.

Multi-site and managed buildings
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Purbrook and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep the extract on whenever the range is lit
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Keep the baffle filters clean
After cleaning, we re-test the same points we measured at the start, so you can see the difference in numbers as well as pictures. Your TR19 certificate is then issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Run the extract whenever the kitchen is cooking. Cooking with the extract off lets grease and heat settle in the canopy, and the next clean has more to do.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Purbrook?
We often find duct sections that haven’t been cleaned since they were installed. 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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St John or anywhere around Purbrook, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What happens on the day
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Send us pictures of the system and we can plan most of a visit in Purbrook before we arrive.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Purbrook questions
Which fire authority looks after Purbrook?
That is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Who inspects food businesses in Purbrook?
Kitchens in Purbrook are inspected by Havant council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in Purbrook?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
TR19 is not written into law, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 does require the responsible person to manage fire risk. TR19 is the standard insurers and fire officers expect, and many policies require it.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
