Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in St Mary Bourne
Many insurers ask for proof that the extract has been cleaned to TR19, and a claim can be refused or reduced without it. The certificate and photo report from each clean in St Mary Bourne give you that record for the maintenance log. If you have grease smells coming from the extract and a TR19 certificate needed for the insurer, we can help. Searching for commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in St Mary Bourne? Duct Doctor has covered London and the South East since 2009, with a certificate and photo report after every clean.
Kitchens that fry and grill hardest need the most frequent cleans, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Work in a small place like St Mary Bourne starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Why act early in St Mary Bourne
Every week without a clean adds another layer. BESA guidance says the mean should not go above 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Heavy build-up takes longer to remove than regular cleans. In a place like St Mary Bourne, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Kitchen extracts in St Mary Bourne
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across St Mary Bourne and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. St Mary Bourne sits within the area of 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. Kitchens in St Mary Bourne get their food hygiene inspections from Basingstoke and Deane council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
For schools such as St Mary Bourne Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Andover War Memorial Hospital about 4.9 miles south-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Flag any change in how the extract sounds or works
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
A TR19 certificate notes the date, the location and the technician. Keep it in the maintenance log with your fire risk assessment, so it’s to hand when an insurer, fire officer or EHO asks.
Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
How it works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to St Mary Bourne.
- We survey the system first, from your pictures and details or on a site visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Schools, hospitals and care homes
In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. Cleans are planned between meals or overnight, so residents and patients aren’t disturbed.

FAQs for St Mary Bourne
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in St Mary Bourne during the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of St Mary Bourne. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Which environmental health team covers St Mary Bourne?
The local authority for St Mary Bourne is Basingstoke and Deane council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No law names TR19 directly, but the Fire Safety Order 2005 does require the responsible person to manage fire risk. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19 as the standard, and many policies require it.
Do we have to close the kitchen for the clean?
Cleans are timed to avoid service. Overnight, weekend and between-service cleans are all possible, so you do not lose a service.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
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.
How long will the clean take?
Allow anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. We will confirm the time when we quote.
Common problems we fix in St Mary Bourne
Grease in the extract matters because it burns. A flare-up on the range can be drawn up into the canopy and duct, and once grease in the duct catches, fire can spread through the building’s ductwork. For a kitchen in St Mary Bourne, keeping that fuel under control is part of the fire risk assessment.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- Heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter or elsewhere in St Mary Bourne, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
