- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
- A fan shaking on its mounts
How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Burcot knowing what to expect.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Extract fan cleaning in Burcot, done properly
Any fan serving a kitchen in Burcot is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. The result is photographed for your records. We’re often asked to deal with a motor area thick with grease and an extract fan that vibrates or rattles, across discharge points, in-line fans and fan housings.
Work in a small place like Burcot starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Burcot
Which council inspects kitchens in Burcot?
The local authority for Burcot is South Oxfordshire council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can you get to a site in Burcot?
Yes. Burcot is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do we need to close while you work?
Usually not. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits to keep things running.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Can you fix a fan that’s worn out?
A fan that needs repair is noted on the report, with what we found. We can repair or replace it, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
It has to be off and isolated before anyone touches it. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking isn’t affected.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes, and it’s often the best time. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, such as late evening, overnight or a weekend.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- Wiring faults to the fan
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Roof-mounted fans

Burcot kitchens: local notes
At about 48 miles from central London, Burcot sits well inside the area we cover. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included. Kitchens in Burcot get their food hygiene inspections from South Oxfordshire council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Littlemore Hospital (about 4.4 miles north-west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Where a hall near Saint Mary and Saint Berin, or anywhere in Burcot, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Common problems we fix in Burcot
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’re asked about most include:
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Abbey Woods Academy, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
What your quote should include

- If they look at the system before pricing
What the work involves, part by part
Roof-mounted fans
Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface, so the outlet area is checked too. Heavy staining is noted on the report.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A fan in a long-hours kitchen runs for most of the day, so grease and wear build up together. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
Why deal with it now?
A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. That stains surfaces and can add to the fire risk outside the building, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Somewhere as small as Burcot, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.
