Extract fan cleaning in Baybridge, done properly
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that’s what we clean. The work covers roof-mounted fans, discharge points and axial fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a noisy fan that has got louder over time and a smell of hot grease from the extract.
Somewhere as small as Baybridge, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Extract fan cleaning around Baybridge
Environmental health officers from Winchester City council inspect food businesses in Baybridge. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Baybridge. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
A hospital like St John's Rooms And Chapel, about 4.7 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Andrew, or anywhere in Baybridge, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Owslebury Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

What the work involves, part by part
Fan housings and motors
Some fans use a belt drive. Belts and pulleys are checked and cleaned where safe for your records.
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: cracks, bent blades or wear. We note any concerns.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Baybridge questions
Who inspects food businesses in Baybridge?
In Baybridge, it’s Winchester City council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can the work in Baybridge be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Baybridge can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes normally come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
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.
Do you work in Baybridge?
Yes. Our technicians work in Baybridge, as part of our area across London and the South East.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Parking and loading at the site
- The number of sites or systems
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
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 give you a fixed price before work begins.
What to send for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- A few general shots of the system
- Any previous report or certificate
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Report rattles or humming early
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Baybridge
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
