- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- A fan left out of previous cleans
Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Keep access to the fan clear
Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Make sure the fan is reachable. 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.
How we handle extract fan cleaning in Ludgershall
Cleaning removes grease, not wear. If we find worn bearings, a struggling motor or damage to the impeller, we will tell you and fan repair or replacement is something we also do. You’ll know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. If you’re dealing with an extract fan with no cleaning record and a noisy fan that has got louder over time, we can put it right.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Ludgershall gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

FAQs for Ludgershall
Can the work in Ludgershall be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Ludgershall can fit around your hours. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Ludgershall?
In Ludgershall, it’s Test Valley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
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.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
Photos, notes on condition and a recommended next date. File it with your other extract records.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Kitchen extracts in Ludgershall

What your team can do, and what needs us
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.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Ludgershall
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.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- Burning smells from the fan area
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- Weak extraction at the canopy
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St James or elsewhere in Ludgershall, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. Tell us when your site near Ludgershall is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Before we arrive
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Ludgershall

- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition we find in the survey

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before we start.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
