What to send for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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.
About our extract fan cleaning in Ealing
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, leading to vibration, noise and strain on the motor and bearings. Cleaning the impeller and housing puts that right. Common call-outs are for grease stains around the discharge and a heavily greased fan housing, on axial fans, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans.
London kitchens tend to trade late and open early, so extract cleaning in Ealing is usually done overnight, after the last service. Before the clean, we agree loading, parking and roof access with whoever manages the building.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
Kitchens that cook 12 to 16 hours a day put the most grease through their fans. Under BESA guidance, heavy use means cleaning at least every 3 months, fan included.
Fan housings and motors
The housing around the impeller catches grease flung off the blades. It’s scraped and degreased with the impeller.
Honest limits
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- An impeller that is bent or split
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- Wiring faults to the fan
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Common questions in Ealing
Can parking be tricky for a job in Ealing?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit typically gets round them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Ealing?
In Ealing, it’s Ealing council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Ealing?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
Will I get pictures of the cleaned fan?
A photo report, including the fan’s condition and the next clean date. File it with your other extract records.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
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.
When to call us in Ealing
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Ealing Independent College or anywhere near Ealing, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. Most London sites cannot stop for the day, so work in Ealing is usually done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Advice
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Why act early in Ealing
The fan is part of the fire path. A TR19 clean that left out the fan wouldn’t cover the whole system and many insurers require the full system to be cleaned to TR19. London sites work long hours, and the longer a job is left, the bigger it gets.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
