Hampshire · Kitchen extract cleaning
Kitchen extract cleaning in Woodgreen, Hampshire
Professional kitchen extract cleaning in and around Woodgreen, timed so the site keeps working and signed off in writing with pictures.
- Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
- An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it 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, which takes one visit for most kitchens, while large or complex systems may need more than one. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Woodgreen, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
- We measure the grease at set points along the system, then give you a fixed price.
- Once the kitchen has closed and the equipment has cooled, we sheet and protect the area.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- Finally the system is re-tested and photographed, and the certificate and report follow.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
TR19 kitchen extract cleaning in Woodgreen
The part of the system nobody sees is often the dirtiest. Access panels let us into the duct runs and risers, scraping heavy deposits by hand before degreasing. Anything out of reach is noted in the report, and new panels can be fitted. The work covers canopies and hoods, discharge points and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract that no longer clears the smoke and a kitchen taken over without any extract records. If you need a kitchen extract clean in Woodgreen, you get one team and one number for every site.
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 Woodgreen starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
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.

Leave it or put it right?
Putting it off simply moves the grease further down the duct. Fat that was soft and easy to remove hardens with heat and time, which is slower to clean. Regular cleans keep each visit shorter. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Woodgreen is calmer for everyone.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.

- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease

Managing agents and facilities teams in Woodgreen
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Common problems we fix in Woodgreen
Grease filters are the first line of defence, and they’re often the weak point. 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.
Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:
- An inspection that picked up a dirty extract
- Proof of cleaning requested by an insurer
- An extract that no longer clears the smoke
- Missing paperwork after a change of operator
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Boniface, or anywhere in Woodgreen, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Before booking anyone
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether the figure could change on the day
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Empty any grease troughs or cups on the canopy
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Book the next clean before the date on the report
- Wash or exchange the filters often
You leave with a date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. A 3, 6 or 12-monthly maintenance plan keeps it on track, so the date isn’t missed.
Wipe the canopy down regularly and empty grease troughs or collection points. It will not replace a TR19 clean, but it slows what reaches the duct.
Kitchen extract cleaning in Woodgreen: the local picture
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 pubs, bars and clubs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Woodgreen. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Woodgreen. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Woodgreen. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Breamore House is about 1.5 miles north-west), access may need planning. School kitchens, at schools like Breamore Church of England Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
