Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Bagshot
Duct Doctor has been cleaning kitchen extract fans since 2009. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and full insurance. If you have less air being pulled from the kitchen and a fan that has never been cleaned, we can help, from centrifugal fans, axial fans and in-line fans onwards.
In a smaller place like Bagshot, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
When we’ve finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Stick to the interval for the full extract. A fan cleaned with the rest of the system on time rarely gets badly coated, in line with BESA guidance.
Kitchen extracts in Bagshot
Look up Bagshot on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 18 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 15 takeaways and sandwich shops in Bagshot and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they cook under a canopy, an extract fan is pulling grease-laden air through its blades every service. Kitchens in Bagshot get their food hygiene inspections from Surrey Heath council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Bagshot falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Bagshot Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. A hospital like Frimley Park Hospital, about 3.5 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Bagshot: your questions answered
Who inspects food businesses in Bagshot?
That is Surrey Heath council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bagshot. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Bagshot during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 14 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Bagshot. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes. We record it as a fan-only clean, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The whole system still needs cleaning at the intervals in BESA guidance.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, a full TR19 clean includes the fan. If a fan can’t be reached, the report says so, so you always know what was cleaned.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.
Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A fan that won’t start
- Wiring faults to the fan
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)

- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
How to prepare

Related advice
Part by part
Impellers and blades
Coated blades move less air. Scraping and degreasing them restores their shape, so the fan can run as intended.
Fan housings and motors
Motors and their electrics are kept dry and treated with care, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease around the motor can make it run hotter, so we clean what we safely can.
