Grease, kitchens and South Gorley
In South Gorley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. The fire and rescue service for South Gorley is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of the Holy Ascension, or anywhere in South Gorley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

TR19 inspection in South Gorley
Taking on a kitchen in South Gorley with no cleaning records? Start with an inspection. You get readings, photos and a clear view of what’s needed, before any cleaning is booked. If you’re dealing with cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen and post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like South Gorley, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

What else we do in South Gorley
For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Do you need TR19 inspection in South Gorley?
Looking at a canopy tells you little about what’s in the duct. Clean filters can hide a heavy layer behind them, which is why readings matter.
What we are most often called out for:
- Sections of duct that cannot be reached
- Cleaning intervals that may not suit the kitchen
- Surveys needed before quoting a full clean
- Checking the result of a recent clean
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Hyde Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Before you book anyone
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
- Do not box in or cover duct access panels
- Share inspection reports with your insurer or broker when asked
- Wipe the canopy surfaces regularly
If any reading is 500 microns or more, the report flags it for immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.
Test grease regularly instead of relying on the calendar. It shows if build-up is speeding up.
How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to South Gorley run smoothly.
- Post-clean verification is booked once the clean is done.
- The same access points are opened up.
- We repeat the WFTT or DTT readings.
- Photos are taken to show the condition after the clean.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
How to get a quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

How we price TR19 inspection
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any previous report or certificate
- A few general shots of the system
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Leave it or put it right?
A pre-clean survey avoids surprises on the night. Missing access panels, hidden duct runs and awkward fans are found before the cleaners arrive, so the clean covers the whole system. With notice, the visit to South Gorley can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
