Extract fan cleaning in Jordans
Think of the fan as the system’s heart and the grease as a clot. A heart under strain works harder for less. We clean it, run it and note anything that needs a closer look, before signing it off. The work covers in-line fans, fan housings and discharge points, and common reasons people get in touch are vibration from an unbalanced impeller and a fan that has never been cleaned.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What affects the quote in Jordans
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Why it’s worth doing now in Jordans
For a kitchen in Jordans, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. If the fan is coated, the duct before it typically is too so a full TR19 clean may be due. A planned visit to Jordans is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- Trading since 2009
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Fixed quotes, usually within one working day
- Every visit written up, with photos

Jordans kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses in Jordans and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Jordans sits within the area of Buckinghamshire 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. In Jordans, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
For schools such as Jordans School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you cook for passing trade around Seer Green & Jordans station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of Holy Trinity, or anywhere in Jordans, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Jordans is about 2 miles east of Beaconsfield, in Buckinghamshire. From the centre of Jordans to the outskirts, extract fan cleaning is available to all kinds of commercial premises, from small sites to large estates. Our Buckinghamshire coverage runs to 263 places, and Jordans is one of them. Our Reading page covers sites nearby, about 20 miles away.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Jordans and across Buckinghamshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
The process
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. In a small place like Jordans, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by extract fan cleaning, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t put right:
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Centrifugal fans
- Axial fans
- Fan housings
- In-line fans
- Discharge points
- Roof-mounted fans
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Leave a clear route to the fan
When we have finished, the fan is reassembled and run. Anything we notice, like noise, vibration or a worn part, goes on the report, so you can plan any repair.
Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

Questions from Jordans
Can school kitchens in Jordans be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. With about 7 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Jordans, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Which fire service covers Jordans?
It’s Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Jordans. 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.
Is Jordans in your area?
Yes. We work in Jordans and across Buckinghamshire, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
How often does the fan need cleaning?
At least as often as the rest of the extract, which BESA guidance sets by daily cooking hours: from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use. A noisy or heavily coated fan may need it sooner.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Are you accredited?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
We isolate the fan, so the kitchen can’t cook while we work. We work evenings, overnight or weekends, and the kitchen is ready when we leave.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
