Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Haslingbourne
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? A few details or a photo help when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and you will get a fixed price, typically within one working day. The work covers roof-mounted fans, axial fans and in-line fans, and people most often call us about a heavily greased fan housing and a motor area thick with grease.
Work in a small place like Haslingbourne starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.
We have been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Common questions in Haslingbourne
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Haslingbourne?
Fire safety enforcement in Haslingbourne is handled by West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can you get to a site in Haslingbourne?
Yes, Haslingbourne is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
It takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. We will confirm the time when we quote.
Do you provide a report after cleaning the fan?
You get a photo report with before and after pictures of the fan. Full system cleans come with a TR19 certificate as well.
Do you need to turn the fan off to clean it?
It has to be off and isolated before anyone touches it. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking is not affected.
Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?
Yes. We record it as a fan-only clean, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The full system still needs its regular TR19 clean.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, it should be. A TR19 Grease clean covers everything from canopy to discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.
Why deal with it now?
Vibration from an unbalanced impeller doesn’t stay small. It wears bearings and mounts and can lead to a breakdown, which may leave the kitchen without extraction. Cleaning it early is far less disruptive. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

Kitchen extracts in Haslingbourne
The FSA’s data shows about 8 pubs and bars registered in and around Haslingbourne, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service covers Haslingbourne. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk. Environmental health officers from Chichester council inspect food businesses in Haslingbourne. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Bartholomew, or anywhere in Haslingbourne, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. For schools such as Petworth Cof E Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What’s near Haslingbourne
We work in commercial kitchens and buildings around The Black Horse Public House and the streets around them. Haslingbourne’s nearest station is Pulborough station, about 3.8 miles east. A little further out are Coultershaw Heritage Site (0.9 miles south-west) and Coates Castle (1.8 miles south). Open spaces near Haslingbourne include The Mens and Bignor Hill.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes an hour or two for most single fans. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Haslingbourne before we set off.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it can’t 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Getting a quote
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Related advice
How the job changes from site to site
Inline duct fans
Space around an inline fan can be tight, so the method is planned in advance. If it can’t be reached fully, the report says so.
Roof-mounted fans
On a roof, the air is cooler and grease drops out faster. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
What we are called out for in Haslingbourne
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and a fan out on a roof or wall often sits where the air is coolest. So grease often settles heavily there.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- Grease stains around the discharge
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- A fan left out of previous cleans
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Haslingbourne (Petworth House is about 1.1 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care.

What a clean will not put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan cleaning won’t do:
- A fan that is too small for the system (a design question)
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- A motor that has burnt out
