About our extract fan cleaning in Lyneham
Any fan serving a kitchen in Lyneham is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. The result is photographed for your records. The work covers in-line fans, discharge points and roof-mounted fans, and common reasons people get in touch are thick grease on the impeller and casing and grease around the motor and its mounts.
For a kitchen in or near Lyneham, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Kitchen extracts in Lyneham
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Lyneham and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Lyneham. 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. Food hygiene inspections in Lyneham are the job of West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
For kitchens in and around Lyneham, the clean covers everything from the canopy to the discharge. Before-and-after pictures and a TR19® certificate come with every clean around Lyneham.

Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Never cook with a filter missing
Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. Anything we notice, like noise, vibration or a worn part, goes on the report, so you can plan any repair.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.

Leave it or put it right?
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Honest limits
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- A motor that has burnt out
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Centrifugal fans
- Discharge points
- Axial fans
- In-line fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Fan housings
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Lyneham
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The number of sites or systems
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Travel, parking and unloading
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- A few general shots of the system
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any previous report or certificate
- The postcode and the type of business
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the extract fan cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Lyneham.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- 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
- Clear the space around the work
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
How to get a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Advice
Lyneham questions
Do you work at weekends in Lyneham?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Lyneham needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Lyneham?
That’s Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
How long will it take to clean the fan?
A single accessible fan does not take long, while fans on high roofs or in tight voids take longer. We plan it out of hours.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, a full TR19 clean includes the fan. Anything that cannot be reached is recorded, so you always know what was cleaned.
