Extract fan cleaning in Mayes Green
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and you’ll get a fixed price, normally within one working day. Typical jobs include a fan left out of previous cleans and weak extraction at the canopy, on axial fans, centrifugal fans and fan housings.
In a village or hamlet like Mayes Green, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease, whatever the size of the place.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
What a clean won’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
- Damaged fan blades
- A motor that has burnt out
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Questions from Mayes Green
Who is the fire and rescue service for Mayes Green?
Mayes Green is in the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Which council inspects kitchens in Mayes Green?
The local authority for Mayes Green is Mole Valley council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What about areas you cannot get to?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, it should be. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan is a key part of it, so it’s cleaned too.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
What happens if it’s left?
Cleaning the fan in Mayes Green now is a short job: it takes an hour or two for most single fans. Waiting adds vibration, wear and a harder clean. It’s simpler to plan the work at Mayes Green now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Extract fan cleaning in Mayes Green: the local picture
It’s Mole Valley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Mayes Green. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Mayes Green falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere in Mayes Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Near you in Mayes Green
In Mayes Green, that means kitchens and buildings near Wallis Wood and The Scarlett Arms Public House. For rail, the closest station is Ockley station, roughly 2.9 miles east. A little further out are Abinger Castle (4.2 miles north) and Horsham Hospital (6 miles south-east). The countryside around Mayes Green includes Leith Hill and Vann Lake.
What we’re called out for in Mayes Green
Grease condenses as the air cools, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. That makes it a natural place for grease to settle.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Burning smells from the fan area
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Horsham Hospital about 6 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

What happens on the day
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Mayes Green run smoothly.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Before we arrive
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Move anything stored near the system
Ask for a quote
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 send details by email.
Advice
Part by part
Wall fans
A wall fan pushes the air straight outside. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.
Fan housings and motors
Motors and their electrics are kept dry and treated with care, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease around the motor can make it run hotter, so we clean what we safely can.
