Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hinxhill Park
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will send you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Hinxhill Park, typically within one working day. If you have vibration from an unbalanced impeller and rough running from the extract fan, we can help, from discharge points, in-line fans and roof-mounted fans onwards.
Work in a small place like Hinxhill Park 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.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Never cook with a filter missing
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller and early action can save a repair.
When something else is needed
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan cleaning will not do:
- A motor that has burnt out
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Discharge points
- Axial fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- In-line fans
- Fan housings
- Centrifugal fans
The process
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the extract fan cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. For a village or hamlet like Hinxhill Park, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Get a fixed quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Hinxhill Park questions
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Hinxhill Park?
That is Ashford council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hinxhill Park. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do you work in villages like Hinxhill Park?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you clean the fan on its own?
Yes, where it makes sense. We will often suggest checking the duct too, as a greasy fan normally means a greasy duct, but the choice is yours.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Is it safe to clean the fan while the kitchen is open?
The fan must be isolated, for safety. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking isn’t affected.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
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.
Will I get photos of the cleaned fan?
Photos, notes on condition and a recommended next date. Keep it with your maintenance log.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
When to call us in Hinxhill Park
By the time air reaches the fan, it has passed the canopy, filters and duct. Whatever grease is still in it settles on the impeller and inside the housing where the spinning blades spread it around.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Burning smells from the fan area
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- A motor area thick with grease
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; William Harvey Hospital is the nearest hospital to Hinxhill Park, about within half a mile north-west.
Questions to ask before you book
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether the quote shows VAT
What happens if it’s left?
Without a working extract fan, a kitchen cannot cook safely. Grease is often where fan trouble begins, so cleaning the fan helps keep it working. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. In a place like Hinxhill Park, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Kitchen extracts in Hinxhill Park
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 13 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 6 takeaways and sandwich shops across Hinxhill Park and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. Kitchens in Hinxhill Park get their food hygiene inspections from Ashford council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. The fire and rescue service for Hinxhill Park is Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary or anywhere around Hinxhill Park, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Willesborough Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Hinxhill Park
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The condition we find in the survey
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
