Why it’s worth doing now in East Stratton
Cleaning the fan in East Stratton now is a short job: the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. Waiting adds vibration, wear and a harder clean. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near East Stratton rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Extract fan cleaning in East Stratton, done properly
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that’s what we clean. The work covers fan housings, axial fans and in-line fans, and common reasons people get in touch are grease escaping from the fan outlet and a smell of hot grease from the extract.
In a village or hamlet like East Stratton, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Questions from East Stratton
Can you work in East Stratton outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in East Stratton doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Which environmental health team covers East Stratton?
Food hygiene inspections in East Stratton are carried out by Winchester City council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Is it safe to clean the fan while the kitchen is open?
We always isolate the fan first, so it can’t start while we work. That means the extract is off, so we clean while the kitchen is closed.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
It takes an hour or two for most single fans. Your quote will give an idea.
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. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
What makes a kitchen extract fan vibrate?
A common cause is grease. Uneven build-up on the blades throws the fan off balance, causing vibration and noise. If cleaning doesn’t, the bearings or motor may need attention.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Different parts, different methods
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, so grease and wear build up together. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
Wall fans
Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.

When to call us in East Stratton
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 are asked about most include:
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- A fan left out of previous cleans
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in East Stratton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Before you book anyone
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
How it works
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near East Stratton, let us know and we will plan around it.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Advice
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in East Stratton
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Parking and loading at the site
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How easy every part is to reach
- How many systems or sites are involved
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- A few general shots of the system
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
You get before and after pictures of the impeller and housing. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.
Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller and early action can save a repair.
