Weeke kitchen extract cleaning
Kitchen extract cleaning in Weeke from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Weeke and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Weeke
Insurers often want evidence of regular TR19 cleaning, and a claim can be refused or reduced without it. The certificate and photo report from each clean in Weeke give you that record for the maintenance log. The work covers extract fans, horizontal duct runs and vertical risers, and common reasons people get in touch are heavy grease build-up inside the duct runs and a system with no record of a TR19 clean. People looking for “duct cleaning near me” in Weeke typically mean the kitchen extract, and that’s our main job: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
The fire risk in a kitchen extract sits in the parts nobody sees: the plenum, the duct and the fan, which is why a TR19® clean in Weeke goes well beyond the canopy.
In a smaller place like Weeke, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What happens if it’s left?
After a fire, one of the first questions is often when the extract was last cleaned. 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. In a smaller place like Weeke, a site that has to close is felt quickly.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.

Kitchen extract cleaning around Weeke
There are about 101 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 26 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Weeke, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of them cooking under a canopy is sending grease into its ductwork every service. The fire and rescue service for Weeke is 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. Kitchens in Weeke get their food hygiene inspections from Winchester City council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Matthew or elsewhere in Weeke, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Weeke Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

Different parts, different methods
Grease filters
Filters need cleaning far more often than the duct, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.
Canopy and plenum
Grease meets the system first at the canopy and the plenum behind the filters. Both are scraped and degreased inside and out, including the filter housing.

Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
We hand the kitchen back clean, with the sheeting removed and waste taken away. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, so you can start cooking as normal.
Report drips, smells or a noisy fan early. Grease dripping from the canopy, a burning smell or a fan that sounds rough are all signs of build-up, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Do you need kitchen extract cleaning in Weeke?
A lot of duct grease gets there because the filters let it through. Filters that are bent, badly fitted, missing or left uncleaned let more fat into the plenum and duct, and it doesn’t stop until it reaches the fan.
Look out for any of the following:
- A smoky, hot kitchen with weak extraction
- A TR19 certificate needed for the insurer
- An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
- Extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit
If you run a café or takeaway near Winchester station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.

Common questions in Weeke
Which council inspects kitchens in Weeke?
In Weeke, it’s Winchester City 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.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Weeke during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. With about 18 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Weeke, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will fit the work in.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Can you quote from pictures?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
What’s the right cleaning interval for a kitchen extract?
That comes down mainly to daily cooking hours. 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.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
The process
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Everything the job in Weeke needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- We survey the system first, from your photos and details or on a site visit.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- We clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers, fan and discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.
Advice
What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.
