Extract fan cleaning in Broad Green
If the extract fan in Broad Green has become noisy, weak or greasy? A few details or a photo help when you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will send you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Broad Green, normally within one working day. If you are dealing with hot, greasy smells near the fan and weak extraction at the canopy, we can put it right, from fan housings, roof-mounted fans and discharge points onwards.
In a London area like Broad Green, a kitchen extract often passes through shared space on its way out: a riser, a service void, the floors above. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
A written report with pictures 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 your team can do, and what needs us
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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Kitchen extracts in Broad Green
The FSA’s data shows about 32 pubs and bars and about 18 hotels and B&Bs registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Broad Green. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. In London, kitchens are usually cleaned overnight, when the kitchen is closed and loading is easier. In Broad Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Croydon council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
For schools such as Elmwood Infant School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Saviour or elsewhere in Broad Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

FAQs for Broad Green
Do you work at weekends in Broad Green?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Broad Green can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
How do you handle parking and loading in Broad Green?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit usually gets round them.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
A common cause is grease. Grease collects unevenly and unbalances the impeller, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, we do. The report will make clear that only the fan was cleaned, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The full system still needs its regular TR19 clean.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes. TR19® Grease covers the whole system, fan included. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned along with the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts and discharge.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Broad Green
A greasy fan in Broad Green is fuel at the end of the duct. If grease in the duct catches, the fan and its housing can feed the fire and an overworked motor runs hotter.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Broad Green is Croydon University Hospital, about under half a mile north-west.

- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. Most London sites cannot stop for the day, so work in Broad Green is typically done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system
