Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Molash
A clean fan isn’t a repaired fan. If we find worn bearings, a struggling motor or damage to the impeller, we’ll tell you, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You’ll know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. If you have hot, greasy smells near the fan and a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Molash, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually 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.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Common problems we fix in Molash
Each blade collects a slightly different amount. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- Grease stains around the discharge
Where a hall near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Molash, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Questions from Molash
Do you work in villages like Molash?
Yes, Molash is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which environmental health team covers Molash?
In Molash, it’s Ashford council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
How long is a fan clean?
One easily reached fan is quick, but hard-to-reach fans take more time. It’s done while the kitchen is closed.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
What makes a kitchen extract fan vibrate?
Uneven grease on the impeller often causes it. We clean the fan and tell you if anything else, like worn bearings, is to blame.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, a full TR19 clean includes the fan. If a fan cannot be reached, the report says so, so the record is accurate.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:
- A fan that is too small for the system (a design question)
- Wiring faults to the fan
- Damaged fan blades
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
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.
Grease, kitchens and Molash
Kent Fire and Rescue Service covers Molash. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Molash is about 47 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Molash (Belmont House and Gardens is about 3.8 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care.

Landmarks near Molash
Locally, jobs take us to businesses close to George Inn, among other places. Molash’s nearest station is Wye station, roughly 3.2 miles south. Other landmarks nearby include Tower keep castle at Chilham (2.7 miles east).
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Leave a clear route to the fan
A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If only the fan is cleaned, the photo report says so.
Fewer grease particles reaching the fan means less build-up. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Part by part
Roof-mounted fans
Many kitchen extracts end at a fan on the roof. They’re cleaned where safe access allows, with any limits noted.
Inline duct fans
Hidden in a ceiling void, an inline fan is easily missed. The survey makes sure it’s part of the clean.
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 one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Molash can be planned properly.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Getting a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
