What a clean won’t put right

Extract fan cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:

  • Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
  • A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
  • An impeller that is bent or split

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Centrifugal fans
  • Roof-mounted fans
  • Discharge points
  • Fan housings
  • Axial fans
  • In-line fans

How we handle extract fan cleaning in Bampton

Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but a fan can also need attention on its own, especially when it has started to vibrate or sound rough. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. If you’re dealing with thick grease on the impeller and casing and fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan, we can put it right.

Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like Bampton gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.

Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the job changes from site to site

Kitchens with long cooking hours

A long-hours kitchen can’t afford a fan failure. A clean fan is less likely to strain, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.

Wall fans

The wall around a wall fan can be stained with grease. The outlet is checked as well as the fan.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Keeping the system healthy

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Look for grease stains near the discharge
  • Keep records of every fan clean
  • Check filters are seated before cooking
  • Book the fan into every full TR19 clean

You get before and after photos of the impeller and housing. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.

Keep the route to the fan clear. Clear access means it’s never left out of a clean, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Bampton questions

Do you cover smaller places like Bampton?

Yes, Bampton is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Bampton?

That is Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.

What does extract fan cleaning cost?

Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll typically reply within one working day.

Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?

A clean won’t mend wear. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.

Can you clean the fan on its own?

Yes, we can clean just the fan. It’s useful when a fan is noisy or greasy between full cleans, but it does not replace a full TR19 clean.

What’s TR19?

It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.

Is TR19 a legal requirement?

No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.

What we do, step by step

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. The visit takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. In a smaller place like Bampton, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.

  1. Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
  2. Once isolated, we open the fan up.
  3. Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
  4. We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
  5. The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Clear loose items from the work area

Ask for a quote

For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.

How we price extract fan cleaning

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Helping us quote

What to send for a quote:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Bampton kitchens: local notes

Food Standards Agency data counts about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Bampton and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Bampton sits within the area of Oxfordshire 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. It’s West Oxfordshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Bampton. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.

Bursars and site managers at schools such as Bampton CofE Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Longworth Hospital about 5.1 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Longworth House is about 4.8 miles south-east), access may need planning.
