Extract fan cleaning in Brunswick Park, done properly
A clean fan isn’t a repaired fan. Anything that looks worn or damaged goes on the report, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You’ll know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. Common call-outs are for a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease and grease stains around the discharge, on centrifugal fans, axial fans and discharge points.
Kitchens in Brunswick Park, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Brunswick Park and across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Brunswick Park.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Common questions in Brunswick Park
Which council inspects kitchens in Brunswick Park?
Food hygiene inspections in Brunswick Park are carried out by Barnet council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Does London parking affect a job in Brunswick Park?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Can you clean the fan on its own?
Yes, if the fan needs it. We’ll often suggest checking the duct too, as a greasy fan normally means a greasy duct, but the choice is yours.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
Allow an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. We will confirm the time when we quote.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Common problems we fix in Brunswick Park
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. That makes it a natural place for grease to settle.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
For kitchens close to New Southgate station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.
What your quote should include
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether a written report and photos are included
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- A fan that won’t start
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Axial fans

Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
- Make sure the fan is included each time
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.
Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
Extract fan cleaning in Brunswick Park: the local picture
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 161 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 65 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Brunswick Park. Where they cook under a canopy, an extract fan is pulling grease-laden air through its blades every service. Night work suits London kitchens, and roads and loading bays tend to be quieter too. The fire and rescue service for Brunswick Park is London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
A hospital like Coppetts Wood Hospital, about 1.7 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Oakleigh Community Church, or anywhere in Brunswick Park, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
- The condition we find in the survey
- Parking and loading at the site
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
