Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Heyshott
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The size of the system
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Extract fan cleaning in Heyshott, done properly
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that’s what we clean. The work covers axial fans, centrifugal fans and in-line fans, and people most often call us about grease escaping from the fan outlet and hot, greasy smells near the fan.
Somewhere as small as Heyshott, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Other services in Heyshott
Different parts, different methods
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, with any limits noted.
Inline duct fans
An inline fan can be easy to forget because it’s out of sight. We find it during the survey and include it in the clean.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan cleaning will not do:
- Wiring faults to the fan
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Heyshott: your questions answered
Which fire authority looks after Heyshott?
Heyshott is in the area of West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® is not law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can the work in Heyshott be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Heyshott keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Heyshott?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before we start.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across West Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
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 on a regular cycle.
Kitchen extracts in Heyshott
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 pubs, bars and clubs across Heyshott and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A pub or hotel kitchen that cooks every day builds up grease in its extract like any other. Kitchens in Heyshott get their food hygiene inspections from Chichester council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. The fire and rescue service for Heyshott is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near The Parish Church of St James or elsewhere in Heyshott, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Cowdray House is about 2.5 miles north), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning. Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Heyshott is Midhurst Community Hospital, about 2.9 miles north.
Heyshott is about 8 miles north of Chichester, in West Sussex.

What happens on the day
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Heyshott, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- 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.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Related advice
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Run the extract throughout cooking
A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. A fan-only clean is recorded in the photo report.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. A fan cleaned with the rest of the system on time rarely gets badly coated, in line with BESA guidance.
