Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Edgehill
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, which brings vibration, noise and extra wear on the bearings and motor. A thorough clean removes the cause. If you’re dealing with a fan that no longer moves enough air and an extract fan with no cleaning record, we can put it right.
In a small place like Edgehill, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Edgehill run smoothly.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Questions from Edgehill
Who is the fire and rescue service for Edgehill?
It’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Edgehill. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can you work in Edgehill outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Edgehill needn’t be disturbed. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, it should be. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Who is the responsible person?
That depends on who controls the premises. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Edgehill?
There’s no set price, as it 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 any work starts.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
- Damaged fan blades
- Wiring faults to the fan
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
Extract fan cleaning around Edgehill
Environmental health officers from Cherwell council inspect food businesses in Edgehill. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Edgehill is covered by Oxfordshire 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 Edgehill (Upton House is about 1 mile south), fitting access panels needs care.

What’s near Edgehill

When to call us in Edgehill
A greasy fan in Edgehill is fuel at the end of the duct. If grease in the duct catches, the fan and its housing can feed the fire, and a hot, struggling motor doesn’t help.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Burning smells from the fan area
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Edgehill, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether VAT is included
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Why it’s worth doing now in Edgehill
Vibration from an unbalanced impeller does not stay small. It can wear the bearings and lead to failure and a kitchen cannot cook safely without extraction. A planned clean beats an emergency. If the system at a site near Edgehill fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
