Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Burwash Weald

Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • The size of the system
  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • The condition we find in the survey

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.

Extract fan cleaning in Burwash Weald, done properly

The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, especially when it has started to vibrate or sound rough. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. If you have a fan that no longer moves enough air and a fan that has never been cleaned, we can help, from discharge points, in-line fans and centrifugal fans onwards.

In a small place like Burwash Weald, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as 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.

How the visit works

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are 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 most single fans. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Burwash Weald.

  1. We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
  2. With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
  3. Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
  4. We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
  5. It’s closed up, run and checked, and pictures go into your report.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Getting a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:

  • A dirty duct upstream of the fan
  • A motor that has burnt out
  • An undersized fan that cannot cope

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • In-line fans
  • Fan housings
  • Roof-mounted fans
  • Axial fans
  • Discharge points
  • Centrifugal fans

What the work involves, part by part

Roof-mounted fans

Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, and anything we cannot reach is recorded.

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.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

Common questions in Burwash Weald

Can you come to Burwash Weald after we close?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Burwash Weald needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Burwash Weald?

Fire safety enforcement in Burwash Weald is handled by East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.

What information do you need?

Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.

Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?

Before and after photos go into a report, along with notes on the fan’s condition. For a full TR19 clean, you also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Where does the waste go?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.

How far ahead should we book?

Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

How do you protect the area?

We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

Keeping the system healthy

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:

  • Report rattles or humming early
  • Report grease escaping from the fan
  • Keep the grease filters clean and in place
  • Keep access to the fan clear

When the fan is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If only the fan is cleaned, the photo report says so.

Keep the route to the fan clear. Clear access means it’s never left out of a clean, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.

What staff can safely do

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

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, alongside our reports.
