Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Egham Wick
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? A few details or a photo help when you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will send you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Egham Wick, normally within one working day. The work covers in-line fans, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans, and the jobs we see most are an extract fan that vibrates or rattles and a fan that hums, whines or rumbles.
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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
The photo report shows the fan before and after cleaning. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Egham Wick, let us know and we will plan around it.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Ask for a quote

What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
When your team notices a problem 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’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Questions from Egham Wick
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Egham Wick?
The local authority for Egham Wick is Runnymede council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Can a school canteen extract in Egham Wick be done out of term time?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 11 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Egham Wick. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote and we will typically reply within one working day.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
The law calls them 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.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
You get a photo report with before and after pictures of the fan. Full system cleans come with a TR19 certificate as well.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
How often does the fan need cleaning?
It depends on how many hours the kitchen cooks, under BESA guidance. At the extremes, that is 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.
Egham Wick kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 10 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 3 hotels and B&Bs in Egham Wick and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. The fire and rescue service for Egham Wick is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. It’s Runnymede council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Egham Wick. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Frogmore House, about 3.6 miles north, is one of the historic houses near Egham Wick; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like King Edward VII Hospital about 3.8 miles north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Where a hall near Church of Saint Simon and Saint Jude, or anywhere in Egham Wick, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

When something else is needed
Extract fan cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover

How we price extract fan cleaning
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The times the site is available
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

What happens if it’s left?
For a kitchen in Egham Wick, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. If the fan is coated, the duct before it usually is too so a full TR19 clean may be due. With notice, the visit to Egham Wick can be fitted around your bookings and events.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll talk you through it.

How the job changes from site to site
Inline duct fans
Some fans are built into the duct itself. They’re reached through access panels or by opening the casing, once they’re isolated.
Fan housings and motors
Some fans use a belt drive. We clean around them and note any wear for your records.
