When to call us in Bighton
Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A heavily greased fan housing
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- A fan that has never been cleaned
Historic houses near Bighton, such as Hinton Ampner House about 4.3 miles south, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Bighton.
- 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.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload

What the work involves, part by part
Impellers and blades
The blades of the impeller do the work, and grease builds up on them unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.
Fan housings and motors
Inside the casing, grease is thrown onto the walls. It’s scraped and degreased with the impeller.
Why it’s worth doing now in Bighton
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. That stains surfaces and can add to the fire risk outside the building, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Bighton rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

When something else is needed
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan

Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.
