About our extract fan cleaning in Golden Pot
A clean fan isn’t a repaired fan. If we find worn bearings, a struggling motor or damage to the impeller, we will tell you, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You’ll know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. The work covers centrifugal fans, discharge points and in-line fans, and people most often call us about vibration from an unbalanced impeller and thick grease on the impeller and casing.
In a small place like Golden Pot, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Grease, kitchens and Golden Pot
Food hygiene inspections in Golden Pot are the job of Basingstoke and Deane council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Golden Pot, about 44 miles from central London, is within our usual area. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Alton Community Hospital about 3 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Hall Place, about 3.5 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Golden Pot; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
Golden Pot is about 2 miles north of Alton, in Hampshire. Sites in Golden Pot get the same service as everywhere we cover: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with photos. Across Hampshire, we cover 683 places, and Golden Pot is one of them. There’s also a page for Reading, about 18 miles away.

What’s near Golden Pot
Typical jobs here are in premises near The Golden Pot pub. Golden Pot’s nearest station is Alton station, about 2.3 miles south of the centre. A little further out are Gliding Heritage Centre (1.6 miles west) and Alton Community Hospital (3 miles south). Not far away are Holybourne Hill.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
What extract fan cleaning can’t fix
Extract fan cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. It does not solve:
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Centrifugal fans
- Fan housings
- Axial fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Discharge points
- In-line fans
Why it’s worth doing now in Golden Pot
Grease on the impeller makes the fan less efficient. Airflow at the canopy drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier and the motor works harder. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Golden Pot rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

How it works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits, and we clear up before we go. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Golden Pot can be planned properly.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- 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.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and photos go into your report.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Questions from Golden Pot
Can you work in Golden Pot outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Golden Pot?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Golden Pot is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
What information do you need?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
What affects the quote in Golden Pot
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The condition we find in the survey
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures 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.
How the job changes from site to site
Kitchens with long cooking hours
Long cooking hours mean more grease reaches the fan. Under BESA guidance, heavy use means cleaning at least every 3 months, fan included.
Roof-mounted fans
Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface and we check the area around the outlet. Heavy staining is noted on the report.
