Extract fan cleaning in Laverstoke

What your team can do, and what needs us

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.

Extract fan cleaning in Laverstoke, done properly

The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. Common call-outs are for a noisy fan that has got louder over time and a smell of hot grease from the extract, on in-line fans, fan housings and discharge points.

In a village or hamlet like Laverstoke, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Common questions in Laverstoke

Can you work in Laverstoke outside opening hours?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.

Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Laverstoke?

Laverstoke is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.

Do we lose a day’s trading?

Not typically. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. We always survey first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.

Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?

A fan that needs repair is noted on the report, with what we found. We can repair or replace it, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Laverstoke?

The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. So grease often settles heavily there.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
  • A fan left out of previous cleans
  • Weak extraction at the canopy
  • A fan shaking on its mounts

School kitchens, at schools like Testbourne Community School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

What your quote should include

  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • Whether they recommend a next date
  • Whether the price is fixed
  • Whether VAT is included

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Part by part

Roof-mounted fans

Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. We clean them where they can be safely reached, with any limits noted.

Inline duct fans

Some fans are built into the duct itself. We get to them through the duct or casing, once they’re isolated.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Laverstoke

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:

  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Any previous report or certificate
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What extract fan cleaning can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • An undersized fan that cannot cope
  • Grease in the canopy and ductwork
  • Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)

If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on in Laverstoke

How the visit works

There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. Somewhere as small as Laverstoke, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
  2. It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
  3. Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
  4. Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
  5. It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

Ask for a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
