Extract fan cleaning across Bodle Street Green

When something else is needed

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan cleaning will not do:

  • An undersized fan that can’t cope
  • Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
  • An impeller that’s bent or split

If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on in Bodle Street Green

Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Bodle Street Green

The extract fan is the heart of the system: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing and we clean it off. If you are dealing with thick grease on the impeller and casing and hot, greasy smells near the fan, we can help, from discharge points, in-line fans and roof-mounted fans onwards.

In a village or hamlet like Bodle Street Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The size of the system
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • The number of sites or systems

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

Helping us quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Problems your staff have spotted

We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Grease, kitchens and Bodle Street Green

Bodle Street Green is about 45 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. Fire safety in Bodle Street Green falls to East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St John the Evangelist or elsewhere in Bodle Street Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Amberstone Hospital is the nearest hospital to Bodle Street Green, about 3.6 miles south-west.

Bodle Street Green is about 5 miles north-east of Hailsham, in East Sussex. From the centre of Bodle Street Green to the outskirts, we cover extract fan cleaning for every kind of premises, from a single unit to a large public building.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Bodle Street Green

Which fire service covers Bodle Street Green?

That’s East Sussex 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 the work in Bodle Street Green be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Bodle Street Green needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.

Are you accredited?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?

Yes, if the fan needs it. We’ll often suggest checking the duct too, as a greasy fan usually means a greasy duct, but the choice is yours.

Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?

Cleaning removes grease, but it can’t fix worn parts. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.

Common problems we fix in Bodle Street Green

Poor filters mean a greasier fan. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.

The symptoms we are asked about most include:

  • A fan left out of previous cleans
  • Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
  • A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
  • Burning smells from the fan area

If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Horselunges Manor is about 4.6 miles west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • What records you’ll receive afterwards
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Our hiring checklist

Looking after it afterwards

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Make sure the fan is included each time
  • Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
  • Watch for grease marks around the outlet
  • Keep records of every fan clean

When we have finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.

Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.

The process

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two for most single fans. For a village or hamlet like Bodle Street Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
  2. Once isolated, we open the fan up.
  3. The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
  4. We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
  5. We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Get a fixed quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

Advice

How the job changes from site to site

Wall fans

Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.

Inline duct fans

Inline fans can be in tight spaces, so the method is planned in advance. If it cannot be reached fully, the report says so.
