About our kitchen extract cleaning in Warblington
Any kitchen we clean in Warblington gets exactly the same specification as everywhere else we work. The job starts with a survey and grease readings, then works through canopy, plenum, filters, ductwork, fan and discharge. At the finish there’s a TR19 certificate and a before and after photo report. The work covers horizontal duct runs, vertical risers and extract fans, and people most often call us about grease dripping from the canopy or filters and rancid smells from grease in the duct. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Warblington, one call covers the survey, the clean and the paperwork, wherever you are in Hampshire.
A kitchen running fryers and chargrills all day builds up grease much faster than one that mostly steams and boils, so we look at the menu as well as the opening hours when we suggest the next date.
Work in a small place like Warblington 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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Warblington?
Grease in an extract starts as vapour. As the air cools on its way through the duct, the fat condenses and sticks, building a layer that gets thicker with every service. The grease filters stop some, never all of it.
What we are most often called out for:
- Grease drips onto cooking equipment
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- A system with no record of a TR19 clean
- A new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Bosmere Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Proof of insurance
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- What paperwork you get at the end

Managing agents and facilities teams in Warblington
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 photos, so each one has its own record.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
The process
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. In a small place like Warblington, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- You send pictures or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
- Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
- The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
- Filters, canopy and plenum are cleaned, then the ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We re-test, photograph and send your certificate and photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

How we price kitchen extract cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The site address and the type of premises
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
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.
Warblington questions
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Warblington during the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Warblington, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.
Which council inspects kitchens in Warblington?
That’s Havant council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Warblington. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
Many insurers ask for proof of regular cleaning to TR19, and many policies require it. Without proof, a claim can be refused or reduced, so it’s worth checking your policy wording.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
How often does a kitchen extract system need cleaning?
Under BESA guidance, the minimum depends on how long you cook each day: 3-monthly for heavy use, 6-monthly for moderate use and 12-monthly for light use. Grease readings can show a shorter interval is needed.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
Grease, kitchens and Warblington
Warblington lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. There are about 45 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 25 takeaways and sandwich shops in Warblington and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. Warblington sits within the area of 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.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Havant War Memorial Hospital (about 1.2 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. For kitchens close to Warblington station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

When it’s something else
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Ductwork that’s corroded, split or leaking (that’s for a ductwork contractor)
- A canopy that is too small or a system that was badly designed
- A grease trap that needs emptying
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Leave it or put it right?
If there’s a fire and the extract hasn’t been cleaned, the paperwork becomes the problem. Many policies require cleaning to TR19, and an insurer can refuse or reduce a claim without proof. A certificate in the file answers that question. Somewhere as small as Warblington, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
