Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Weston
Across Weston, we clean kitchen extract systems to BESA TR19® Grease. 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 vertical risers, plenums and filters and horizontal duct runs, and the jobs we see most are an extract that no longer clears the smoke and a kitchen taken over without any extract records. Most calls from Weston 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.
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.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Common problems we fix in Weston
Cooking fat leaves the pan as a fine 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. Filters catch some of it, but never all.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Fat running down the canopy edge
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- Years of baked-on grease in the ducts
- A kitchen taken over without any extract records
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Buriton Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What affects the quote in Weston
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How big the system is
- Parking and loading at the site
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- A few general shots of the system
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
What the work involves, part by part
Grease filters
Gaps around filters let fat through to the duct. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that don’t.
Canopy and plenum
The canopy catches the vapour, and the plenum behind the filters is where it first condenses. We clean both inside and out, including the filter housing.
Why act early in Weston
If there’s a fire and the extract hasn’t been cleaned, the paperwork becomes the problem. Many insurers ask for proof of TR19 cleaning and may reduce or refuse a claim without it. A current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. In a small place like Weston, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Why Weston businesses choose us
- Each visit written up, with photos
- Survey first, then a fixed quote

What kitchen extract cleaning looks like in Weston
Food Standards Agency data counts about 6 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Weston and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. In Weston, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from East Hampshire council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Weston 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.

Advice
FAQs for Weston
Do you cover smaller places like Weston?
Yes, Weston is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work overnight in Weston?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Weston can fit around your hours. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Why do insurers care about extract cleaning?
Grease in an extract is a known fire risk, so many insurers want evidence it’s being cleaned to TR19. Our certificate and photo report give you that evidence.
Is a quote from pictures possible?
Usually, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If photos are not enough, we will survey first.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
