About our extract fan cleaning in Margery
Cleaning removes grease, not wear. Anything that looks worn or damaged goes on the report 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 a noisy fan that has got louder over time and grease stains around the discharge, we can help, from axial fans, in-line fans and roof-mounted fans onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When to call us in Margery
The fan sits at the end of the grease’s journey. The grease that’s left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Burning smells from the fan area
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- Rough running from the extract fan
School kitchens, at schools like Kingswood Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Questions from Margery
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Margery?
That is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Do you clean school canteen extracts around Margery out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Margery, the Food Standards Agency lists about 5 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will fit the work in.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes, and it’s often the best time. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, such as late evening, overnight or a weekend.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Margery?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.
Why act early in Margery
Grease on the fan is grease in the system. TR19® Grease covers the whole extract, fan included, and insurers asking for TR19 cleaning expect the full system. In a small place like Margery, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
Why us?
- Full insurance on every job
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Fixed quotes, typically within one working day

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- An impeller that is bent or split
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
- A motor that has burnt out
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What extract fan cleaning looks like in Margery
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 19 pubs, bars and clubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Margery. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Environmental health officers from Reigate and Banstead council inspect food businesses in Margery. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Margery falls to Surrey 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.
A hospital like East Surrey Hospital, about 3.4 miles south-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God or elsewhere in Margery, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes an hour or two for most single fans, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Somewhere like Margery, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
