About kitchen extract cleaning in PO38

We have 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’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers horizontal duct runs, extract fans and canopies and hoods, and the jobs we see most are ductwork thick with old, hardened grease and extraction mentioned at an environmental health visit.

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the system.

  1. First comes a survey of the whole system, by pictures or a visit.
  2. Grease readings are taken at set points and you get a fixed quote.
  3. On the day, cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and everything nearby is sheeted.
  4. Canopy, plenum, filters, duct runs, risers, fan and discharge are all cleaned to TR19® Grease.
  5. We test again, photograph the result and issue your TR19 certificate and photo report.

Landmarks near Ventnor

We work in commercial kitchens and buildings around The Blenheim pub, St Catherine's Church and St Francis Catholic and Church of England Primary Academy and the streets around them. The closest station to Ventnor is Shanklin station, about 3 miles north-east. Well-known places in the area include Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children (3 miles north-east) and Longshoremans Museum (under half a mile south). Open spaces near Ventnor include Alverstone Mead and St Boniface Down.

Where we work in PO38

From Ventnor, Niton and Wroxall to its smaller places, PO38 has kitchens of every size. Every one gets the same full TR19® clean, from the canopy to the discharge.

From central London kitchens to coastal hotels and country pubs, London and the South East have every kind of site. The same TR19® standard applies to all of them, in PO38 and beyond. Near the coast in PO38, salt and damp speed up corrosion in fans, ducts and dampers, and corrosion is one of the things that can stop a fire damper closing.

Ventnor: Historic houses near Ventnor, such as Rylstone Manor about 2.6 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Bursars and site managers at schools such as St Catherine's School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What staff can safely do

Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

Looking after it afterwards

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Report grease drips, smells or fan noise right away
  • Do not let the canopy gutters overflow
  • Refit filters properly after cleaning
  • Wash or exchange the filters often

The report gives a recommended date for the next clean, set from your daily cooking hours and the readings we took. We can put the system on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly plan, so the date isn’t missed.

Keep the outside of the canopy wiped and any grease cups emptied. A daily wipe isn’t a deep clean, but it helps between visits.

Multi-site and managed buildings

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across the Isle of Wight. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

When it’s something else

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • Blocked drains from a neglected grease trap (a separate service)
  • Damaged duct sections that need replacing
  • A fan motor or bearings that have failed (that needs a fan repair or replacement)

Leave it or put it right?

A clogged extract doesn’t only raise the fire risk. Filters block, airflow drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier, while the fan works harder to move less air. Grease drips, smells and condensation are common next.

What your quote should include

  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • What’s included in the scope, part by part

Questions from PO38

How long will the clean take?

Short systems are 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.

Is a quote from pictures possible?

Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.

How do you protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

Will the clean disrupt our service?

Out of hours: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. We need the equipment cool, and we leave the kitchen ready to cook.

Do you look at the system first?

Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.

How far ahead should we book?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
