How we handle extract fan cleaning in Hawley
If the extract fan in Hawley has become noisy, weak or greasy? A few details or a photo help when you ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, and you will get a fixed price, usually within one working day. We are often asked to deal with a heavily greased fan housing and a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease, on fan housings, centrifugal fans and discharge points.
Work in a small place like Hawley starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Common questions in Hawley
Do you work at weekends in Hawley?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Hawley needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which fire service covers Hawley?
It’s Kent Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Hawley. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not usually. We need the work area to ourselves while we are on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Do you work in Hawley?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Hawley.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
Size, access and build-up all affect it. Typically it takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Wiring faults to the fan
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before booking.

Different parts, different methods
Kitchens with long cooking hours
When a busy kitchen’s fan fails, cooking stops. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, and anything we can’t reach is recorded.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hawley and across Kent. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Make sure the fan is included each time
If the fan needs more than a clean, we’ll say so plainly. We also repair and replace extract fans, so you have one point of contact.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. For a village or hamlet like Hawley, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Find the previous report, if there is one

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Extract fan cleaning around Hawley
Food Standards Agency records include about 21 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hawley. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Kent Fire and Rescue Service covers Hawley. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Dartford council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hawley. 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.
