Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in South Gorley
The ducts are where most of the grease hides. We reach horizontal runs and vertical risers through access panels, removing thick grease by hand, then using degreasers, hot water or steam to suit the deposit. Anything out of reach is noted in the report, and new panels can be fitted. We are often asked to deal with fat running down the canopy edge and an extract that has never been cleaned to TR19, on horizontal duct runs, discharge points and extract fans. Most calls from South Gorley come after an insurer, an EHO or a fire officer asks to see the last TR19 certificate. We handle the clean and the paperwork in one visit.
Access decides how thorough a clean can be. Where a duct run has no panels, we say so on the report and can fit new ones.
Work in a small place like South Gorley starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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 need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
How the job changes from site to site
Grease filters
A filter that is missing or bent lets grease straight past. Each filter is checked as it goes back in, and flag any that don’t.
Ductwork and risers
Horizontal runs collect grease as the air slows and cools. We open access panels along the route and clean each section, recording any that cannot be reached.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Ductwork that is corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- Faulty fire dampers in the duct
- A broken extract fan that will not run
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- How easy every part is to reach
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Travel, parking and unloading
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- A few general shots of the system
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Keep to the recommended cleaning interval
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Run the extract fan throughout cooking
You get a photo report after every clean. It shows the system before and after, part by part, and lists what was cleaned, any areas we couldn’t reach and the date the next clean is due.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
Grease, kitchens and South Gorley
In South Gorley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. South Gorley is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of the Holy Ascension or anywhere around South Gorley, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Hyde Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

South Gorley: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in South Gorley?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, South Gorley included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can the work in South Gorley be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in South Gorley needn’t be disturbed. Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you clean the whole extract system or just the canopy?
The whole system: canopy inside and out, plenum, grease filters, ductwork, risers, extract fan and discharge, plus attenuators where fitted. Any part without access is noted.
Are you a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 sit alongside that, and we are fully insured.
How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?
It depends on how many hours a day the kitchen cooks. Heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day calls for a clean at least every 3 months under BESA guidance, and lighter use less often. Your report gives a recommended next clean date.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
How it works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to South Gorley and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about parking and loading
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, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
