Extract Fan Cleaning in Brooklands
Extract fan cleaning for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Brooklands. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and fully insured.
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- A fan that has never been cleaned
For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Brooklands
Any fan serving a kitchen in Brooklands is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. Your report shows the impeller as we found it and as we left it. The work covers discharge points, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a fan shaking on its mounts and hot, greasy smells near the fan.
Kitchens around a place like Brooklands are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Different parts, different methods
Fan housings and motors
We clean around the motor without soaking its electrics, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease on and around the motor can trap heat, so we clean what we safely can.
Inline duct fans
An inline fan can be easy to forget because it’s out of sight. The survey makes sure it’s part of the clean.
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A motor that has burnt out
- Wiring faults to the fan
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Leave it or put it right?
Cleaning the fan in Brooklands now is a short job: the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Leaving it means more wear, more noise and a bigger clean later. A site near Brooklands that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How it works
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. The visit itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. We plan the journey to Brooklands and bring what the job is likely to need.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Brooklands
Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in Brooklands as anywhere. If grease in the duct catches, the fan and its housing can feed the fire, and a hot, struggling motor doesn’t help.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Rough running from the extract fan
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Charles Borromeo or anywhere around Brooklands, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
What your quote should include
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- Proof of insurance
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Environmental health officers from Elmbridge council inspect food businesses in Brooklands. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. The fire and rescue service for Brooklands is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.

Questions from Brooklands
Which fire service covers Brooklands?
Brooklands is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Brooklands in the summer holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 7 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Brooklands. Send us your term dates when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll fit the work in.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Cleaning removes grease, but it cannot fix worn parts. We repair and replace extract fans as well, with a fixed quote first.
