Extract fan cleaning in Godmersham, Kent
Extract fan cleaning for Godmersham, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
Common problems we fix in Godmersham
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.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- A motor area thick with grease
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; William Harvey Hospital is the nearest hospital to Godmersham, about 5.8 miles south.

About our extract fan cleaning in Godmersham
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but a fan can also need attention on its own, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. A fan-only clean is recorded as exactly that. If you’re dealing with a fan that no longer moves enough air and a noisy fan that has got louder over time, we can help.
For a kitchen in or near Godmersham, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for Godmersham
Which fire authority looks after Godmersham?
It’s Kent Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Godmersham. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Which council inspects kitchens in Godmersham?
That is Ashford council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Godmersham. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Do you work out of hours?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we will plan the visit around them.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, where it makes sense. A coated fan often means the duct before it is coated too, but the choice is yours.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What does extract fan cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
We take away the grease and dirty water from the fan clean. On a roof or outside wall, we leave the surrounding area tidy.
Keep the route to the fan clear. Clear access means it’s never left out of a clean, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
For a kitchen in Godmersham, 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 it’s worth checking the whole system. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
What a clean won’t put right
Extract fan cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It doesn’t solve:
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- A fan that won’t start
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.
