How we handle extract fan cleaning in Cramhurst
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing, and that’s what we clean. The work covers discharge points, axial fans and in-line fans, and the jobs we see most are a fan that no longer moves enough air and grease stains around the discharge.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Kitchen extracts in Cramhurst
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs within about 1.5 miles of central Cramhurst. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. It’s Waverley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Cramhurst. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. The fire and rescue service for Cramhurst is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Cramhurst (Loseley Park is about 4.4 miles north-east), fitting access panels needs care. A kitchen near Milford (Surrey) station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What else we do in Cramhurst
What your team can do, and what needs 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.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Leave it or put it right?
The fan is part of the fire path. TR19® Grease covers the whole extract, fan included, and insurers asking for TR19 cleaning expect the full system. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Why book with us
- Every job surveyed first
- Fixed quotes, typically within one working day
- Photo reports with every job
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

Managing agents and facilities teams in Cramhurst
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- Damaged fan blades
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Cramhurst questions
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Cramhurst?
Kitchens in Cramhurst are inspected by Waverley council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can the work in Cramhurst be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Cramhurst doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
Allow an hour or two for most single fans. Your quote will give an idea.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, a full TR19 clean includes the fan. Anything that can’t be reached is recorded, so you always know what was cleaned.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® itself is not law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the extract fan cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Cramhurst.
- 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.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Ask for a quote

Part by part
Wall fans
Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans also discharge grease onto the roof around them and we check the area around the outlet. Heavy staining is noted on the report.
Common problems we fix in Cramhurst
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. When filters don’t seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A heavily greased fan housing
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Milford Hospital about 1.3 miles east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
