Extract Fan Cleaning in Jealott's Hill
One call covers extract fan cleaning in Jealott's Hill, from survey to sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.

- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
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, alongside our reports.

Grease, kitchens and Jealott's Hill
The fire and rescue service for Jealott's Hill is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Jealott's Hill is about 28 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Where a hall near Church of St Michael and All Angels, or anywhere in Jealott's Hill, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Historic houses near Jealott's Hill, such as St Leonard's Hill about 4.5 miles east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

What affects the quote in Jealott's Hill
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The scale of the work
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What we need to know
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Problems your staff have spotted
If you need extract fan cleaning in Jealott's Hill, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
Why act early in Jealott's Hill
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Jealott's Hill
How fast a fan gets greasy in Jealott's Hill depends on the cooking: how many hours a day the kitchen runs and what it cooks. BESA guidance sets minimum intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months for the whole system by daily use.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- A heavily greased fan housing
- Grease stains around the discharge
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- A motor area thick with grease
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Jealott's Hill is Heatherwood Hospital, about 4.1 miles south-east.
What your quote should include
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
When it’s something else
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Somewhere as small as Jealott's Hill, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Getting 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.
Advice
Jealott's Hill: your questions answered
Who inspects food businesses in Jealott's Hill?
That is Bracknell Forest council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Jealott's Hill. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
Can the work in Jealott's Hill be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Jealott's Hill keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?
Yes. The report will make clear that only the fan was cleaned, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The whole system still needs cleaning at the intervals in BESA guidance.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not normally. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. If a fan can’t be reached, the report says so, so the record is accurate.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
