Kitchen extract cleaning across Yateley

Commercial kitchen extraction cleaning in Yateley

We’ve been trading since 2009, cleaning kitchen extracts across the South East and London. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. If you have rancid smells from grease in the duct and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit, we can put it right. Hood cleaning is where most enquiries from Yateley start: a clean that goes past the canopy into the duct and fan, backed by a certificate.

We clean every reachable part of the system in Yateley: canopy, plenum, filters, ducts, risers and fan, and the discharge where it can be reached.

Kitchens in towns like Yateley are often in older buildings that were never designed for them, so duct runs can be awkward, with bends, long horizontal sections and too few access panels. Sections we cannot reach are listed on the report, and access panels can be added.

It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re 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 we do, step by step

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 a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time. Send us pictures of the system and we can plan most of a visit in Yateley before we arrive.

  1. You send photos or we visit, and the system is surveyed from canopy to discharge.
  2. Grease thickness is measured and the price is fixed before work starts.
  3. The kitchen is closed, the equipment cooled and everything nearby protected.
  4. We work through the system from the canopy to the fan and discharge.
  5. Readings are repeated, photos taken, and your TR19 certificate and photo report issued.

Preparing for the visit

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

Fixed quotes for kitchen extract cleaning in Yateley

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • The times the site is available

A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.

What we need to know

A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels

For kitchen extract cleaning in Yateley, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.

For landlords and multi-site operators

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

When to call us in Yateley

It’s common for parts of a duct to have been missed for years. Most of the time it’s because there were never enough access panels, so nobody could get to them. That hidden grease keeps building where nobody looks.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Fat running down the canopy edge
  • Cleaning needed before an insurance renewal or survey
  • An extract that has never been cleaned to TR19
  • An overdue clean flagged by an EHO or fire officer

Where a hall near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Yateley, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
  • Whether the price is fixed
  • How they set the interval to the next visit
  • Proof of insurance

Questions to ask before booking

Kitchen extracts in Yateley

The FSA’s data shows about 11 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered across Yateley and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Fire safety in Yateley falls to 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. It’s Hart council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Yateley. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

For schools such as Yateley School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Pinewood Hospital about 3.6 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Part by part

Schools, hospitals and care homes

In a care home or hospital, the kitchen may cook every day of the year. We plan the clean around meal times and work in a contained, tidy way with as little disruption as possible.

Grease filters

Between TR19 cleans, filters still need regular cleaning, and a filter exchange service can take that off your hands. Clean filters slow the build-up further down the system.

Honest limits

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen extract cleaning will not do:

  • An undersized canopy or fan
  • Damaged duct sections that need replacing
  • Fire dampers that won’t close (that needs damper testing and remedials)

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What the work covers

  • Vertical risers
  • Plenums and filters
  • Extract fans
  • Canopies and hoods
  • Horizontal duct runs
  • Discharge points

Yateley questions

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Yateley?

That is Hart council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Yateley. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.

Do you clean school canteen extracts around Yateley out of term?

Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 7 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Yateley, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.

Do you work in Yateley?

Yes. Yateley is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.

What happens to the waste?

We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.

What does kitchen extract cleaning cost?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.

How long will the clean take?

A small kitchen with a short duct can be done in a few hours, but large systems may be spread over more than one visit. We will tell you how long when we quote.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
