About our extract fan cleaning in Hare Street
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. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. We’re often asked to deal with rough running from the extract fan and an extract fan with no cleaning record, on axial fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans.
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.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Hare Street
Do you work overnight in Hare Street?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Hare Street needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Will you come out to Hare Street?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hare Street included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
Before and after pictures go into a report, with anything we noticed. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
The fan follows the full system’s interval at BESA’s minimum intervals for your cooking hours. Grease readings and the fan’s condition can show it needs more.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Hare Street?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
If your staff spot something 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 the work involves, part by part
Fan housings and motors
Some fans use a belt drive. Belts and pulleys are checked and cleaned where safe for your records.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A long-hours kitchen can’t afford a fan failure. A clean fan is less likely to strain, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
What a clean won’t put right
Extract fan cleaning cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t put right:
- A fan that will not start
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on in Hare Street
- In-line fans
- Discharge points
- Centrifugal fans
- Fan housings
- Axial fans
- Roof-mounted fans
Leave it or put it right?
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. That stains surfaces and can add to the fire risk outside the building, which is one more reason to keep it clean. In a small place like Hare Street, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
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 us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach, and we clear up before we go. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Hare Street.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Advice
Extract fan cleaning around Hare Street
About 18 miles out from central London, Hare Street is part of the South East area we work across. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included. Environmental health officers from Epping Forest council inspect food businesses in Hare Street. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
A hospital like St. Margaret's Hospital, about 4.6 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Historic houses near Hare Street, such as Hill Hall about 3 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Margaret of Antioch or elsewhere in Hare Street, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What affects the quote in Hare Street
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The size of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- A few general shots of the system
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos 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 will typically have a quote within one working day.
