How kitchen extract cleaning works in PO15
Think of it as a health check for the kitchen’s airways: survey first, clean second, sign-off last. The sign-off is a TR19 certificate with a photo report, issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. The work covers vertical risers, canopies and hoods and plenums and filters, and the jobs we see most are a new tenancy or takeover with no cleaning history and stale cooking odours from the system.
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a single shift for most kitchens, with long duct runs and tall risers needing more time.
- We start with a survey, so we know every part of the system before we quote.
- Set points are tested for grease thickness and the quote is fixed before work begins.
- On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
- The whole route is cleaned, from the canopy through the ductwork to the fan and the discharge.
- We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.
What affects the price in PO15
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.

How to get a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Near you in Whiteley
Around Whiteley, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Brookfield Community School and Language College, St Margaret Mary and Whiteley Primary School and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Swanwick station, about 0.8 miles south-west of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find St Andrew's Castle (3.5 miles south-west) and Fareham Community Hospital (1.4 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s Swanwick Lakes.
Where we work in PO15
In PO15, we work in places such as Fareham, Locks Heath and Whiteley and well beyond. We cover every place we list for PO15, 11 in all, with cleans booked around trading hours.
Much of our work across London and the South East happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so sites across PO15 don’t have to lose a day. Parts of PO15 are on or near the coast, where salt air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings. We look for corrosion as well as dirt on coastal sites.
Whiteley: A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Margaret Mary or elsewhere in Whiteley, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If you run a café or takeaway near Swanwick station, early starts and late finishes leave little time to clean, so overnight extract cleaning suits.
What happens if it’s left?
An overdue clean in PO15 is best dealt with now rather than after the next inspection. The job takes as long as the system needs, from a few hours to several planned visits, and we work evenings, overnight and weekends so you do not lose a service. Waiting only adds grease and risk.

What the work involves, part by part
Schools, hospitals and care homes
Some healthcare kitchens never fully close. We plan the clean around meal times and work in a contained, tidy way, so residents and patients aren’t disturbed.
Canopy and plenum
Behind the grease filters sits the plenum, which daily cleaning never reaches. We take the filters out and clean the plenum and housing thoroughly.
What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: 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.
What affects the quote in PO15
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- The size of the system
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Parking and loading at the site
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- A few general shots of the system
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Tell us when the extract starts to drip or smell
- Don’t let the canopy gutters overflow
- Switch the fan on before cooking starts
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
The kitchen is left clean and ready for the next service. Waste grease and water are contained and removed, so you can start cooking as normal.
Tell whoever looks after the system when something changes. Drips, odours and fan noise often mean grease is building, and a grease thickness test can confirm it.
Common questions in PO15
What accreditations do you hold?
We clean to BESA TR19® Grease as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, with certificates issued through the BESCA portal. We’ve been trading since 2009.
Do you cover PO15?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes PO15.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
How much does kitchen extract cleaning cost in PO15?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
Do insurers need proof of extract cleaning?
Extract grease is fuel for a kitchen fire, so many insurers want evidence it’s being cleaned to TR19. Each clean gives you a certificate and photo report to show them.
