Extract fan cleaning in Ewhurst Green
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan and we clean it off. The work covers in-line fans, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans, and people most often call us about an extract fan that vibrates or rattles and a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Ewhurst Green: your questions answered
Can the work in Ewhurst Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Ewhurst Green needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Which fire service covers Ewhurst Green?
Fire safety enforcement in Ewhurst Green is handled by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
Anything beyond cleaning is flagged, with what we found. We offer extract fan repair and replacement, and if it fails outright, our 24/7 emergency line is there.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
Is Ewhurst Green in your area?
Yes. Our technicians work in Ewhurst Green, as part of our area across London and the South East.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, a full TR19 clean includes the fan. Anything that cannot be reached is recorded, so the record is accurate.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Ewhurst Green
Fire safety in Ewhurst Green falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Waverley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Ewhurst Green. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Ewhurst CofE Aided Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Near you in Ewhurst Green
Around Ewhurst Green, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Hurtwood House, Sayer's Croft LNR and Bulls Head pub and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Ockley station, about 4.2 miles east. Nearby you’ll also find Abinger Castle (4.1 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Vann Lake and Leith Hill.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The size of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Different parts, different methods
Fan housings and motors
Motors and their electrics are kept dry and treated with care, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease on and around the motor can trap heat, so the surrounding area is cleaned carefully.
Impellers and blades
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: cracks, bent blades or wear. We note any concerns.

Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- An impeller that is bent or split
- Wiring faults to the fan
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on in Ewhurst Green
- Fan housings
- In-line fans
- Axial fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Discharge points
- Centrifugal fans
What we’re called out for in Ewhurst Green
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. When filters don’t seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Look out for any of the following:
- Burning smells from the fan area
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- A motor area thick with grease
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Ewhurst Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they recommend a next date
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the price is fixed
Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Leave a clear route to the fan
When the fan is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. A fan-only clean is recorded in the photo report.
A change in how the fan sounds is worth noting. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller, and catching it early keeps it a cleaning job.
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes an hour or two for most single fans. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Ewhurst Green, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
