Kitchen extract cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Wootton
Any kitchen we clean in Wootton gets exactly the same specification as everywhere else we work. We survey first and take grease readings, then clean the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, fan and discharge. At the finish there’s a TR19 certificate and a before and after photo report. The work covers plenums and filters, canopies and hoods and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit and grease smells coming from the extract. When a restaurant in Wootton asks for duct cleaning, it’s nearly always the kitchen extract they mean, and that’s exactly what we do: canopy to fan, to TR19® Grease.
We clean every reachable part of the system in Wootton: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.
Work in a small place like Wootton 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.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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.
The process
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Wootton and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First the diagnosis: a survey of the whole system and its access points.
- Grease readings set the baseline, and a fixed quote follows.
- We arrive after close, protect the area and contain the waste.
- Heavy deposits are scraped by hand and the system degreased to TR19® Grease.
- The sign-off: post-clean readings, a TR19 certificate and a photo report with the next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear the space around the work
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Ask for a quote
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
Part by part
Restaurant and pub kitchens
Grills, fryers and woks send a lot of fat into the extract, and measured readings show whether the minimum interval is enough.
Grease filters
A filter that’s missing or bent lets grease straight past. We check they fit as they should when we refit them, and flag any that don’t.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clean grease off the canopy surfaces regularly
- Wash or exchange the filters often
- Make sure every filter is fitted before cooking
- File each certificate with the fire risk assessment
If we couldn’t get into part of the duct, the report says so plainly. That’s part of an honest TR19 clean, not a failing, and we can fit access panels so it’s reached next time.
Stick to the cleaning interval on the certificate. If the kitchen starts cooking longer hours, the interval should be looked at again, and grease readings will show it.
Why deal with it now?
Any food business in Wootton can expect visits from the council’s environmental health officers, and a greasy canopy or dripping filters will not go unnoticed. Keeping the extract clean helps the whole kitchen pass muster. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Wootton questions
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Wootton?
Wootton is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Will you come out to Wootton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Will I get a certificate after the clean?
Every clean comes with a TR19 certificate and a photo report. They belong in the maintenance log so they’re to hand when an insurer asks.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do I have to clean my extract to TR19 by law?
TR19 is not written into law, but the responsible person still has a legal duty under the Fire Safety Order 2005. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19 as the standard, and many policies require it.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
When do you clean the extract?
The clean is done when the kitchen is not cooking, so evenings, overnight, early mornings and weekends are all options. Equipment needs to be off and cool before we start.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

What affects the quote in Wootton
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey
- How easy every part is to reach
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Kitchen extract cleaning around Wootton
Look up Wootton on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Wootton. Each one that cooks under a canopy has an extract system that collects grease and needs regular cleaning. In Wootton, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Wootton is covered by 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.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St John or elsewhere in Wootton, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Lymington New Forest Hospital (about 5.5 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Avon Tyrrell House is about 3.2 miles west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
