Why it’s worth doing now in Wildhern
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 current certificate is far easier to produce than an explanation. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Wildhern is calmer for everyone.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Wildhern
Has the extract gone a while without a clean, or has the paperwork gone missing? Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with pictures of the canopy and filters, and we will come back with a fixed price for the work in Wildhern, typically within one working day. Common call-outs are for a kitchen taken over without any extract records and proof of cleaning requested by an insurer, across extract fans, canopies and hoods and vertical risers. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Wildhern, you get one team and one number for every site, wherever you are in Hampshire.
Grease that collects out of sight, behind the filters and along the duct, is what insurers and fire officers worry about, so that’s where most of the work in Wildhern goes.
Work in a small place like Wildhern 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What else we do in Wildhern
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Damaged duct sections that need replacing
- A grease trap that needs emptying
- Extraction that can’t cope with the cooking because of its design
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Horizontal duct runs
- Discharge points
- Canopies and hoods
- Extract fans
- Vertical risers
- Plenums and filters
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Grease, kitchens and Wildhern
Food hygiene inspections in Wildhern are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Wildhern. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Christchurch or anywhere around Wildhern, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Hatherden Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Wildhern, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Wildhern is Andover War Memorial Hospital, about 2.8 miles south.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Different parts, different methods
Extract fan and discharge
Some systems have attenuators to cut noise, and they hold grease. Where they can be cleaned, they are, and the report notes anything that can’t.
Ductwork and risers
Bends and changes of direction trap more grease than straight runs. We test at points like these before and after cleaning, so the report shows the difference.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. The timing of a visit to Wildhern is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by photos or a visit.
- Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
- Readings and photos are taken again, and you receive a TR19 certificate and photo report.

Advice
How we price kitchen extract cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition we find in the survey
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
