Extract Fan Cleaning in Kentsboro
Extract fan cleaning in Kentsboro from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- A motor area thick with grease
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. In a small place like Kentsboro, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Clear the space around the work
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

About our extract fan cleaning in Kentsboro
The extract fan is the heart of the system: it draws the air through the canopy and ductwork and pushes it outside. Whatever grease slips past the filters and duct reaches the fan, and that’s what we clean. If you have thick grease on the impeller and casing and grease around the motor and its mounts, we can put it right, from fan housings, roof-mounted fans and axial fans onwards.
Somewhere as small as Kentsboro, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Kentsboro questions
Do you work in villages like Kentsboro?
Yes. Kentsboro is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can the work in Kentsboro be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Kentsboro can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
Before and after photos go into a report, along with notes on the fan’s condition. A full clean adds a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
Grease on the blades and housing is one of the usual causes, since uneven grease makes it run out of balance. Worn bearings and motor problems are others, which our report will flag.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
Who is the responsible person?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
When to call us in Kentsboro
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. Missing, damaged or badly fitted filters let grease travel the whole system, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Burning smells from the fan area
A hospital like Andover War Memorial Hospital, about 5 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether they’re fully insured
Multi-site and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Kentsboro
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- The condition of the system
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The postcode and the type of business
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 the job changes from site to site
Wall fans
A wall fan pushes the air straight outside. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.
Fan housings and motors
Some fans use a belt drive. We clean around them and note any wear for your records.
Grease, kitchens and Kentsboro
In Kentsboro, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Test Valley council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Kentsboro falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.

Why deal with it now?
An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It wears bearings and mounts and can lead to a breakdown and a kitchen cannot cook safely without extraction. A planned clean beats an emergency. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
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, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
