About our extract fan cleaning in Bierley
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, leading to vibration, noise and strain on the motor and bearings. A thorough clean removes the cause. If you have a fan that hums, whines or rumbles and a heavily greased fan housing, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Bierley, 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.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Bierley
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Parking and loading at the site
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The condition we find in the survey
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Why deal with it now?
Grease on the impeller makes the fan less efficient. Less air is pulled from the kitchen, so heat and smoke linger and the motor works harder. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes an hour or two for most single fans. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Bierley can be planned properly.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Do you need extract fan cleaning in Bierley?
Fans that are hard to reach are often the ones that get missed. If it wasn’t included in past cleans, it may hold years of grease, and the report will show it.
Look out for any of the following:
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Burning smells from the fan area
A hospital like Arthur Webster Memorial Hospital for Children, about 5 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
FAQs for Bierley
Does coastal air change anything about extract fan cleaning in Bierley?
It can. Being within about 2 miles of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Bierley than inland. A fan housing that is rusting near the coast can fail sooner, so it’s worth catching early.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Bierley?
Fire safety enforcement in Bierley is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not typically. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
Which sectors do you work in?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Kitchen extracts in Bierley
At about 2 miles from the coast, Bierley is close enough for sea air to matter. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. It’s Isle of Wight council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Bierley. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Bierley sits within the area of 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.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Sheat Manor is about 4.1 miles north), access may need planning. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St. Mary and St. Radegund or elsewhere in Bierley, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
