Extract fan cleaning in Hampton Poyle
If the extract fan in Hampton Poyle has become noisy, weak or greasy? A few details or a photo help when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and you’ll get a fixed price, typically within one working day. The work covers discharge points, roof-mounted fans and fan housings, and common reasons people get in touch are a heavily greased fan housing and a fan that has never been cleaned.
For a kitchen in or near Hampton Poyle, 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Run the extract throughout cooking
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. If only the fan is cleaned, the photo report says so.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
What affects the quote in Hampton Poyle
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How easy every part is to reach
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The postcode and the type of business
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
If you need extract fan cleaning in Hampton Poyle, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
What happens on the day
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 one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. The timing of a visit to Hampton Poyle is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Get a fixed quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Related advice
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Hampton Poyle
Grease condenses as the air cools, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. That makes it a natural place for grease to settle.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A motor area thick with grease
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hampton Poyle (Blenheim Palace is about 3.9 miles west), fitting access panels needs care.

What the work involves, part by part
Roof-mounted fans
Many kitchen extracts end at a fan on the roof. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, and anything we can’t reach is recorded.
Impellers and blades
A clean impeller shows any damage: chips, distortion or wear. Anything we see goes on the report.
Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Hampton Poyle
Which council inspects kitchens in Hampton Poyle?
That’s Cherwell council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hampton Poyle. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Will you come out to Hampton Poyle?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Hampton Poyle is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What accreditations do you have?
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 have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How long is a fan clean?
It takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.
Do you need to turn the fan off to clean it?
The fan must be isolated before anyone touches it. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking is not affected.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Build-up on the impeller is a frequent reason, since uneven grease makes it run out of balance. Worn bearings and motor problems are others, which our report will flag.
Hampton Poyle kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 12 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 6 takeaways across Hampton Poyle and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. Hampton Poyle is covered by Oxfordshire 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. It’s Cherwell council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hampton Poyle. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
For schools such as Gosford Hill School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Hampton Poyle, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
