Kitchen extract cleaning in Quidhampton, Hampshire
One call covers TR19 Grease cleaning of complete kitchen extract systems, from canopy to discharge in Quidhampton: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
- A kitchen with no current TR19 certificate
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
What staff can safely do
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Quidhampton, done properly
Duct Doctor has been cleaning kitchen extract systems since 2009. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. If you have missing paperwork after a change of operator and a kitchen with no current TR19 certificate, we can help. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Quidhampton start: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, which is why a TR19® clean in Quidhampton goes well beyond the canopy.
In a small place like Quidhampton, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council inspect food businesses in Quidhampton. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Quidhampton, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

For kitchens close to Overton station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

Common questions in Quidhampton
Can you get to a site in Quidhampton?
Yes. Quidhampton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Which council inspects kitchens in Quidhampton?
Food hygiene inspections in Quidhampton are carried out by Basingstoke and Deane council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Does the law say I must clean to TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve dealt with extract grease.
Will the clean disrupt our service?
The clean is done when the kitchen is not cooking, working evenings, overnight or at weekends to suit you. We need the equipment switched off and cooled first.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Will my insurer ask for a TR19 certificate?
Many insurers ask for proof of regular cleaning to TR19, and many policies require it. An insurer may refuse or reduce a claim if there’s no evidence, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. The timing of a visit to Quidhampton is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by photos or a visit.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- With the kitchen closed and equipment off and cool, the area is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Readings and pictures are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Refit filters properly after cleaning
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
- Keep the cleaning records where you can find them
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. A TR19 report should record what wasn’t cleaned as well as what was, and new access panels can be fitted so the next clean covers it.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens if it’s left?
There’s no law that names TR19, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 still applies. The responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which in a kitchen includes the grease in the extract. Cleaning to TR19 is the recognised way to show you’ve done it. Planning a trip to Quidhampton ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

Nearby places to Quidhampton
Also in Quidhampton
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. 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.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
What affects the quote in Quidhampton
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The number of sites or systems
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The times the site is available
- Travel, parking and unloading
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- A few general shots of the system
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We typically come back within one working day.
