Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Enstone
Think of the fan as the system’s heart and the grease as a clot. A heart under strain works harder for less. Our job is to clear it, check it runs smoothly and record what we found so you get a clean bill of health. Typical jobs include less air being pulled from the kitchen and a motor area thick with grease, on axial fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans.
Work in a small place like Enstone starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Why deal with it now?
A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Enstone rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- Damaged fan blades
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Enstone
Kitchens in Enstone get their food hygiene inspections from West Oxfordshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. The fire and rescue service for Enstone is 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.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Kenelm or anywhere around Enstone, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What else we do in Enstone
Enstone questions
Will you come out to Enstone?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Enstone included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who inspects food businesses in Enstone?
In Enstone, it’s West Oxfordshire council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Enstone?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
How far ahead should we book?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote and we will plan the visit around them.
Can you fix a fan that is worn out?
A clean won’t mend wear. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.
Can you clean the fan on its own?
Yes, we can clean just the fan. It’s useful when a fan is noisy or greasy between full cleans, but it doesn’t replace a full TR19 clean.
Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
- Report rattles or humming early
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
The photo report shows the fan before and after cleaning. It notes what was done and anything that couldn’t be reached, along with the recommended next clean date.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Grease settles faster when the air stops moving, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
What affects the quote in Enstone
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
Asking for a quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Any previous report or certificate
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

When to call us in Enstone
Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in Enstone as anywhere. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it and an overworked motor runs hotter.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Enstone Primary School or anywhere near Enstone, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price is fixed
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- How they set the interval to the next visit
How it works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. Somewhere like Enstone, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Getting a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
