TR19 grease cleaning of complete kitchen extract systems, from canopy to discharge in Shipton Bellinger, surveyed first and signed off with a written report and photos. Ask us for a fixed quote.
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
Aftercare tips
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Clean the grease filters regularly between TR19 cleans
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Grease and dirty water are collected and taken off site, and equipment can be switched back on once we’ve gone.
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.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Shipton Bellinger
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and some may refuse or reduce a claim when it’s missing. For a kitchen in Shipton Bellinger, our certificate and photo report give you that record, ready for the fire risk assessment file. Typical jobs include ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer, on discharge points, horizontal duct runs and extract fans. Kitchens in Shipton Bellinger book us for TR19 cleaning for three reasons: the insurer asked, the EHO asked, or the canopy is dripping. We handle the clean and the paperwork in one visit.
Most kitchens in Shipton Bellinger fall into one of BESA’s three bands: every 3 months for 12–16 hours, every 6 months for 6–12 hours and every 12 months for 2–6 hours, adjusted by what the grease readings show.
Somewhere as small as Shipton Bellinger, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before any work starts, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes a few hours for a small kitchen, longer for a large system. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Shipton Bellinger can be planned properly.
- Diagnosis comes first, with a survey of the system and how it’s reached.
- We record grease levels at set points, then fix the price.
- After the kitchen closes, we sheet the area and set up to contain grease and water.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Kitchen extract cleaning in Shipton Bellinger: the local picture
In Shipton Bellinger, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Test Valley council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Shipton Bellinger is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Peter or elsewhere in Shipton Bellinger, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. For schools such as Shipton Bellinger Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Why deal with it now?
TR19® is not law, but the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is. It puts a duty on the responsible person to assess and reduce fire risk, and in a kitchen that means keeping extract grease under control. TR19 is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. Planning a trip to Shipton Bellinger ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Part by part
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. We clean after close or before opening.
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Institutional kitchens tend to cook to set hours, so cleans can be planned for holidays or quiet times. The certificate and report suit estates and compliance files.
Common questions in Shipton Bellinger
Can the work in Shipton Bellinger be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Shipton Bellinger can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Who inspects food businesses in Shipton Bellinger?
In Shipton Bellinger, it’s Test Valley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Which parts of the extract do you clean?
The whole system: the canopy, the plenum behind the filters, the filters, horizontal ducts, vertical risers, the fan and the discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Anything we can’t reach is recorded on the report.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
