Extract fan cleaning in Highstreet Green, done properly
If the ducts are the arteries, the fan is the heart. A heart under strain works harder for less. Our job is to clear it, check it runs smoothly and record what we found, before signing it off. If you’re dealing with burning smells from the fan area and a fan shaking on its mounts, we can help.
Work in a small place like Highstreet Green starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What the work involves, part by part
Wall fans
The wall around a wall fan can be stained with grease. We clean the fan and check the outlet.
Roof-mounted fans
Many kitchen extracts end at a fan on the roof. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, and anything we cannot reach is recorded.
What else we do in Highstreet Green
Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Don’t store items in front of the fan’s access point
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Do not turn the fan off mid-service
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.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
Why act early in Highstreet Green
A greasy fan has to work harder to move the same air. Less air is pulled from the kitchen, so heat and smoke linger and the motor works harder. Planning a trip to Highstreet Green ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. The timing of a visit to Highstreet Green is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Move anything stored near the system
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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 is where we come in.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
What we’re called out for in Highstreet Green
A fan in Highstreet Green builds up grease at a rate set by the kitchen, not the location: daily hours and the amount of frying and grilling. BESA guidance sets minimum intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months for the whole system by daily use.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Rough running from the extract fan
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
Whether the kitchen is in Highstreet Green itself or nearby, a TR19® clean covers the whole system, canopy to discharge.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Highstreet Green
Can you work in Highstreet Green outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Highstreet Green can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Which environmental health team covers Highstreet Green?
Food hygiene inspections in Highstreet Green are carried out by Waverley council. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Cleaning removes grease, but it can’t fix worn parts. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
How long is a fan clean?
Allow an hour or two for most single fans. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
