Extract fan cleaning in Bayswater
The extract fan is the heart of the system: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that is what we clean. If you have an extract fan that vibrates or rattles and a heavily greased fan housing, we can help, from roof-mounted fans, discharge points and in-line fans onwards.
In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so work in Bayswater is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Parking, loading and access to the roof are agreed with the building before the night of the clean.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

How the job changes from site to site
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A long-hours kitchen can’t afford a fan failure. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Roof-mounted fans
Many kitchen extracts end at a fan on the roof. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, with any limits noted.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Bayswater
Who is the fire and rescue service for Bayswater?
That’s London Fire Brigade. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Bayswater?
In Bayswater, it’s Kensington and Chelsea council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. If a fan cannot be reached, the report says so, so the record is accurate.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Do you cover Bayswater?
Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, Bayswater included.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
An unbalanced impeller, typically from uneven grease, is a common cause. After cleaning, we’ll tell you if wear or damage is also involved.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Can you fix a fan that is worn out?
We also repair and replace extract fans. If cleaning shows a worn motor, bearings or impeller, we will tell you and quote for the repair.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The condition of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email 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. We usually come back within one working day.
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Don’t store items in front of the fan’s access point
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Report rattles or humming early
The area around the fan is left clean, with waste grease removed. Wherever the fan is, the area around it is cleaned down.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
What a clean won’t put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan cleaning will not do:
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Bayswater
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
How it works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we are happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Bayswater.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Getting a quote
We don’t publish a 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, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What we are called out for in Bayswater
A fan on a roof or hidden in a ceiling void is easy to forget. A fan that has never been cleaned can be heavily coated, and the report will show it.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- A motor area thick with grease
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Essex Street Chapel, or anywhere in Bayswater, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours

Bayswater kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 107 pubs, bars and clubs and about 187 hotels and guest houses as registered food businesses in and around Bayswater, up to about a mile and a half out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Most London extract cleaning happens at night, after the last service. London Fire Brigade covers Bayswater. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mary Abbot's Hospital (about 0.8 miles south), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Fox Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
