What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
About our extract fan cleaning in Bledlow
If the extract fan in Bledlow has become noisy, weak or greasy? Tell us about it when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will send you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Bledlow, typically within one working day. The work covers fan housings, roof-mounted fans and discharge points, and people most often call us about weak extraction at the canopy and a fan coated in grease inside its housing.
Work in a small place like Bledlow starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Never cook with a filter missing
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. We also repair and replace extract fans, so you have one point of contact.
Keep the route to the fan clear. A fan that can be reached safely is a fan that gets cleaned, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.
FAQs for Bledlow
Which fire service covers Bledlow?
Fire safety enforcement in Bledlow is handled by Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can you work in Bledlow outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we will typically reply within one working day.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.
Do you look at the system first?
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, 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.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum, under BESA guidance. At the extremes, that’s 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What happens on the day
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the extract fan cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. Somewhere as small as Bledlow, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
There’s no standard 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 get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Grease on the impeller makes the fan less efficient. Airflow at the canopy drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier, while the motor runs under more strain. With notice, the visit to Bledlow can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

Common problems we fix in Bledlow
The fan sits at the end of the grease’s journey. The grease that is left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
Look out for any of the following:
- A heavily greased fan housing
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- Grease stains around the discharge
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Bledlow, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
What your quote should include

- What paperwork you get at the end
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- When the next visit should be, and why
Extract fan cleaning around Bledlow
Fire safety in Bledlow falls to Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
