For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
About our extract fan cleaning in Broad Oak
Think of the fan as the system’s heart and the grease as a clot. A heart under strain works harder for less. We clean it, run it and note anything that needs a closer look so you get a clean bill of health. Common call-outs are for weak extraction at the canopy and thick grease on the impeller and casing, across in-line fans, axial fans and discharge points.
Work in a small place like Broad Oak 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 report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What we’re called out for in Broad Oak
A fan on a roof or hidden in a ceiling void is easy to forget. If it wasn’t included in past cleans, it may hold years of grease, and the report will show it.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near The Parish Church of St George or elsewhere in Broad Oak, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
What your quote should include
- Whether they recommend a next date
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
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, next to our reports.
Leave it or put it right?
For a kitchen in Broad Oak, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. Grease on the fan means grease in the duct before it so a full TR19 clean may be due. In a small place like Broad Oak, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

What we do, step by step
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Broad Oak.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

What affects the quote in Broad Oak
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition of the system
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Broad Oak: your questions answered
Will you come out to Broad Oak?
Yes, Broad Oak is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work overnight in Broad Oak?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
A common cause is grease. Uneven build-up on the blades throws the fan off balance, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few photos, with the address and opening hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
What the work involves, part by part
Fan housings and motors
Some fans use a belt drive. We clean around them and note any wear for your records.
Inline duct fans
Inline fans sit within the duct run, often above a ceiling. We get to them through the duct or casing after isolating them.
