Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Shalcombe
Across Shalcombe, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. We survey first and take grease readings, then clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. You get a TR19 certificate and a photo report at the end. The work covers discharge points, horizontal duct runs and plenums and filters, and people most often call us about an extract that no longer clears the smoke and an inspection that picked up a dirty extract. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Shalcombe start: a system that is clean inside, not just on the surface, and a certificate that proves it.
A clean in Shalcombe covers the canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
For a kitchen in or near Shalcombe, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens if it’s left?
An overdue clean in Shalcombe is best dealt with now rather than after the next inspection. It takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one, and we fit around your opening hours. Every extra month adds grease. Planning a trip to Shalcombe ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. Somewhere as small as Shalcombe, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site 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 photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Get a fixed quote
For 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. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.

What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
Every clean ends with a photo report. It shows the system before and after, part by part, alongside a list of what was cleaned, anything out of reach and the recommended next clean date.
Regular filter cleaning is the simplest thing a kitchen can do. Clean, well-fitted filters catch more fat before it reaches the duct, so the ductwork stays cleaner for longer.
Shalcombe kitchens: local notes
At about 2 miles from the coast, Shalcombe is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Shalcombe, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Wherever food is cooked under a canopy, the extract above it gathers grease and needs cleaning on a schedule. Shalcombe is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St. Mary's Church or elsewhere in Shalcombe, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Shalcombe (Mottistone Manor is about 1.3 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care.
Shalcombe is about 6 miles west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Wherever you are in the PO41 postcode area, we cover kitchen extract cleaning for commercial sites. 125 places in the Isle of Wight are on our list, large and small. For sites nearby, see our Southampton page, about 17 miles away.

Your questions about kitchen extract cleaning in Shalcombe
Can you come to Shalcombe after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Shalcombe keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Can sea air affect kitchen extract cleaning in Shalcombe?
It can. Being within about 2 miles of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Shalcombe than inland. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at every visit.
Do you cover Shalcombe?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Shalcombe included.
What is 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 it takes a risk-based approach.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
Our work is to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, with certificates issued through the BESCA portal. Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
We clean every part the grease travels through. That means canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge, reached through access panels where necessary.
What do I get after the clean?
Every clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log with the fire risk assessment, ready for your insurer or an inspection.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
