- A smell of hot grease from the extract
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Extract fan cleaning in Bierton
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, which brings vibration, noise and extra wear on the bearings and motor. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. If you have thick grease on the impeller and casing and burning smells from the fan area, we can put it right.
In a small place like Bierton, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens if it’s left?
An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It wears bearings and mounts and can lead to a breakdown and a kitchen can’t cook safely without extraction. Cleaning it early is far less disruptive. A fault that closes a site in a village like Bierton affects everyone who depends on it.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Common problems we fix in Bierton
How fast a fan gets greasy in Bierton depends on the cooking: how many hours a day the kitchen runs and what it cooks. Under BESA guidance, the whole system, fan included, needs cleaning at least every 3, 6 or 12 months depending on daily hours.
Clients typically contact us after spotting something like this:
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- Grease stains around the discharge
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Weak extraction at the canopy
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Bierton Church of England Combined School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
What your quote should include
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- Any permits to work or inductions
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

Other services in Bierton
Extract fan cleaning around Bierton
Food Standards Agency data counts about 75 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 41 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Bierton. Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on a fan that gathers grease as it runs. The fire and rescue service for Bierton is Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. 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. Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Bierton. 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.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St James or elsewhere in Bierton, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Tindal Centre about 1 mile south-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Bierton, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for 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, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
When it’s something else
Extract fan cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover

- Centrifugal fans

Questions from Bierton
Which environmental health team covers Bierton?
That’s Buckinghamshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bierton. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Do you cover smaller places like Bierton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Is it safe to clean the fan while the kitchen is open?
The fan must be isolated, for safety. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking isn’t affected.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.
