Managing agents and facilities teams in Midhurst
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Midhurst and across West Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Extract fan cleaning in Midhurst
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 will know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. Common call-outs are for a fan left out of previous cleans and grease stains around the discharge, across roof-mounted fans, centrifugal fans and fan housings.
Size doesn’t change the work: a kitchen in a place like Midhurst gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. We plan the visit around your hours, with the journey sorted in advance.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Questions from Midhurst
Can the work in Midhurst be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Who is the fire and rescue service for Midhurst?
That is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
Build-up on the impeller is a frequent reason, because it unbalances the fan. It can also be wear in the bearings or motor, which our report will flag.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
The fan is isolated before we open it, so it cannot run during the clean. That means the extract is off, so we clean while the kitchen is closed.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Midhurst
The fan sits at the end of the grease’s journey. The grease that is left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Rough running from the extract fan
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Cowdray House is about 0.6 miles north-east), access may need planning.
What your quote should include

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The scale of the work
- The times the site is available
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
Extract fan cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Wiring faults to the fan
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Centrifugal fans
- In-line fans

Kitchen extracts in Midhurst
Food Standards Agency data counts about 15 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 4 takeaways across Midhurst and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). The fan at the end of each of those extracts collects grease that slows it and wears the motor. In Midhurst, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Chichester council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Midhurst falls to West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Midhurst CofE Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Church and community hall kitchens, near Roman Catholic Church of Divine Motherhood or anywhere around Midhurst, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Why deal with it now?
A fan that fails mid-service can stop a kitchen cooking. Grease is often where fan trouble begins, so keeping it clean is part of keeping it running. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. Around Midhurst, a kitchen or building out of action is missed right away.

What we do, step by step
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Visits to a place like Midhurst are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- 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.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What staff can safely do
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, next to our reports.
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.
