Extract fan cleaning in Newchapel
Not all extract fans are the same: fans on the roof, fans built into the duct run, and fans on an outside wall. The way in depends on the type and the survey shows us how to reach it. Typical jobs include fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan and thick grease on the impeller and casing, across fan housings, centrifugal fans and in-line fans.
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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Newchapel: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Newchapel?
Yes, Newchapel is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Newchapel?
Kitchens in Newchapel are inspected by Tandridge council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Will I get pictures of the cleaned fan?
A photo report shows the fan before and after. Full system cleans come with a TR19 certificate as well.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Extract fan cleaning in Newchapel: the local picture
Look up Newchapel on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in and around Newchapel, up to about a mile and a half out. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. The fire and rescue service for Newchapel is Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Food hygiene inspections in Newchapel are the job of Tandridge council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Newchapel (Saint Hill Manor is about 4 miles south), fitting access panels needs care. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Queen Victoria Hospital is the nearest hospital to Newchapel, about 2.9 miles south-east. For schools such as Imberhorne School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Near you in Newchapel
Around Newchapel, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Centenary Fields. The nearest railway station is Dormans station, roughly 2 miles east of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Effingham Park Motor Museum (2.3 miles south-west) and Queen Victoria Hospital (2.9 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Hedgecourt Lake.
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- File the fan’s report with your other records
- Keep access to the fan clear
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It shows the fan’s condition at the time of the clean, which helps if anything changes later.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Grease settles faster when the air stops moving, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
Why act early in Newchapel
A fan clean in Newchapel does not take long: it takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Waiting adds vibration, wear and a harder clean. A planned visit to Newchapel is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How the visit works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Newchapel.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Advice
What a clean won’t put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan cleaning won’t do:
- A fan that will not start
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
- An impeller that’s bent or split
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Different parts, different methods
Fan housings and motors
The housing around the impeller catches grease flung off the blades. We clean it along with the blades.
Inline duct fans
Inline fans sit within the duct run, often above a ceiling. We get to them through the duct or casing, once they’re isolated.
What affects the quote in Newchapel
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- How easy every part is to reach
- The number of sites or systems
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
