Extract fan cleaning in Lane End
Kitchen extract fans come in different forms: roof-mounted units, inline fans within the duct, and wall fans. Each is isolated and opened in its own way, and we plan that during the survey. The work covers in-line fans, discharge points and roof-mounted fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a noisy fan that has got louder over time and a fan that no longer moves enough air.
Work in a small place like Lane End starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Part by part
Roof-mounted fans
On a roof, the air is cooler and grease drops out faster. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.
Impellers and blades
A clean impeller shows any damage: cracks, bent blades or wear. Anything we see goes on the report.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
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.
What affects the quote in Lane End
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

FAQs for Lane End
Do you work at weekends in Lane End?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which fire service covers Lane End?
Fire safety enforcement in Lane End is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you need to turn the fan off to clean it?
The fan is isolated before we open it, so it can’t start while we work. With the extract off, the kitchen can’t cook, so we work out of hours.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we will ask.
Why deal with it now?
The fan is part of the fire path. A TR19 clean that left out the fan wouldn’t cover the whole system, and insurers asking for TR19 cleaning expect the full system. A planned visit to Lane End is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the extract fan cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Lane End knowing what to expect.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Common problems we fix in Lane End
A fan in Lane End builds up grease at a rate set by the kitchen, not the location: 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.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- Grease stains around the discharge
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Lane End is St John's Rooms And Chapel, about 5 miles north-west.
