What affects the quote in Frogmore
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Parking and loading at the site
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll typically have a quote within one working day.
Extract fan cleaning in Frogmore, done properly
Kitchen extract fans come in different forms: fans on the roof, fans built into the duct run, and fans on an outside wall. The way in depends on the type, and we plan that during the survey. Typical jobs include burning smells from the fan area and a heavily greased fan housing, on fan housings, in-line fans and discharge points.
Around a smaller place like Frogmore, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, 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 to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. 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.
What we’re called out for in Frogmore
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A motor area thick with grease
Church and community hall kitchens, near St Barnabas Church or anywhere around Frogmore, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Different parts, different methods
Wall fans
The wall around a wall fan can be stained with grease. The outlet is checked as well as the fan.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A fan in a long-hours kitchen runs for most of the day, so grease and wear build up together. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.

Questions from Frogmore
Which council inspects kitchens in Frogmore?
That is Hart council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Frogmore. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Frogmore during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 8 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Frogmore, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
What’s the cleaning interval for an extract fan?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum in BESA guidance. At the extremes, that’s 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes. A TR19 Grease clean covers everything from canopy to discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not normally. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 14 pubs and bars within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Frogmore. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Environmental health officers from Hart council inspect food businesses in Frogmore. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Frogmore is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.
For kitchens close to Sandhurst station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. For schools such as Frogmore Junior School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

How it works
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. In a place like Frogmore, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about parking and loading
