What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- The condition of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How many systems or sites are involved
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

About our extract fan cleaning in Middleton
Any fan serving a kitchen in Middleton is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. The result is photographed for your records. If you have less air being pulled from the kitchen and an extract fan with no cleaning record, we can help, from roof-mounted fans, centrifugal fans and axial fans onwards.
Work in a small place like Middleton starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
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. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Kitchen extracts in Middleton
It’s Test Valley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Middleton. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Middleton sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Andover War Memorial Hospital is the nearest hospital to Middleton, about 4.8 miles west. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Middleton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. School kitchens, at schools like Longparish Church of England Primary School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
Middleton is about 4 miles east of Andover, in Hampshire. Middleton gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where needed and a written report with photos. Middleton is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we work for extract fan cleaning. We also work in Southampton, around 19 miles away.

What we do, step by step
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. For a village or hamlet like Middleton, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know about parking and loading

Between visits
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Run the extract throughout cooking
- Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Make sure the fan is included each time
We take away the grease and dirty water from the fan clean. Wherever the fan is, the area around it is cleaned down.
Stick to the interval for the full extract. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Middleton
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Middleton and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
What happens if it’s left?
A fan clean in Middleton doesn’t take long: it takes an hour or two for most single fans. Leaving it means more wear, more noise and a bigger clean later. Planning a trip to Middleton ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Different parts, different methods
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, so grease and wear build up together. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
Roof-mounted fans
A roof fan sits in cooler air, so grease can settle heavily. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.
Middleton: your questions answered
Do you work in villages like Middleton?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Middleton included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Middleton?
Kitchens in Middleton are inspected by Test Valley council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
It takes an hour or two for most single fans. We’ll confirm the time when we quote.
What should I send you?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
