Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hooe Common
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but a fan can also need attention on its own, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. A fan-only clean is recorded as exactly that. The work covers discharge points, in-line fans and fan housings, and people most often call us about rough running from the extract fan and a motor area thick with grease.
In a small place like Hooe Common, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Hooe Common
Can the work in Hooe Common be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Hooe Common can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Does the sea air around Hooe Common make a difference to extract fan cleaning?
It can. Hooe Common is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at every visit.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages so parts stay in use.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Report rattles or humming early
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It gives a dated record of the fan’s condition, which helps if anything changes later.
Keep the route to the fan clear. A fan that can be reached safely is a fan that gets cleaned, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.
How we price extract fan cleaning
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- What state the system is in
- Parking and loading at the site
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- A few general shots of the system
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
How it works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Hooe Common knowing what to expect.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Hooe Common
Grease on the impeller makes the fan less efficient. Less air is pulled from the kitchen, so heat and smoke linger, while the motor runs under more strain. In a place like Hooe Common, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Why us?

What extract fan cleaning looks like in Hooe Common
Hooe Common is within about 3 miles of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. It’s Wealden council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hooe Common. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hooe Common sits within the area of East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Bexhill Hospital (about 3.1 miles south-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near The Parish Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Hooe Common, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. For schools such as Ninfield Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
