Extract fan cleaning around Newtown
Newtown is within about 1 mile of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. Food hygiene inspections in Newtown are the job of Isle of Wight council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Newtown. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Swainston Manor, about 1.6 miles south-east, is one of the historic houses near Newtown; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St Mary's Hospital is the nearest hospital to Newtown, about 4 miles east. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Holy Spirit Church or elsewhere in Newtown, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Newtown knowing what to expect.
- 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
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
How we price extract fan cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The number of sites or systems
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- Parking and loading at the site
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Helping us quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Newtown: your questions answered
Can you come to Newtown after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Newtown can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Newtown?
Kitchens in Newtown are inspected by Isle of Wight council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Newtown?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Ask us for a fixed quote and we will usually reply within one working day.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Build-up on the impeller is a frequent reason, because it unbalances the fan. Worn bearings and motor problems are others, which our report will flag.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
A photo report shows the fan before and after. If it’s part of a full TR19 clean, a TR19 certificate is issued too.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
How the job changes from site to site
Wall fans
The wall around a wall fan can be stained with grease. The outlet is checked as well as the fan.
Impellers and blades
The blades of the impeller do the work, and it collects grease unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- A fan that will not start
- An impeller that is bent or split
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- In-line fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Fan housings
- Axial fans
- Centrifugal fans
- Discharge points
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Report rattles or humming early
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
- Check filters are seated before cooking
When we have finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Listen to the fan. Rattles, hums or shaking can be early signs of build-up or wear, and catching it early keeps it a cleaning job.
