About our extract fan cleaning in Norney
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 we plan that during the survey. The work covers in-line fans, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans, and people most often call us about rough running from the extract fan and a smell of hot grease from the extract.
In a village or hamlet like Norney, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

FAQs for Norney
Do you cover smaller places like Norney?
Yes, Norney is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you work in Norney outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Norney can fit around your hours. Just call 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What’s the cleaning interval for an extract fan?
It’s cleaned with the whole extract at BESA’s minimum intervals for your cooking hours. Readings may show it needs cleaning more often.
Is it safe to clean the fan while the kitchen is open?
With the fan isolated, the extract isn’t running. We work evenings, overnight or weekends, and the kitchen is ready when we leave.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
How long is a fan clean?
That depends on the fan’s size, its position and how much grease there is. Typically it takes an hour or two for most single fans.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not typically. We need the work area to ourselves while we’re on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Norney.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Clear loose items from the work area

Kitchen extracts in Norney
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens across Norney and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Fire safety in Norney falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. In Norney, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Guildford council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Historic houses near Norney, such as Loseley Park about 2.5 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Norney, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

How the job changes from site to site
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A fan in a long-hours kitchen runs for most of the day, which means grease and wear add up quickly. Regular cleans help it keep going.
Roof-mounted fans
Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface, so the outlet area is checked too. Heavy staining is noted on the report.
Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Norney
How fast a fan gets greasy in Norney depends on the cooking: daily hours and the amount of frying and grilling. BESA guidance sets minimum intervals of 3, 6 or 12 months for the whole system by daily use.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Mary's CofE Voluntary Controlled Infant School or anywhere near Norney, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

What else we do in Norney
Leave it or put it right?
A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Planning a trip to Norney ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- The size of the system
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How easy every part is to reach
- Any permits to work or inductions
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition 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.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
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, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
When we have finished, the fan is reassembled and run. Anything we notice, like noise, vibration or a worn part, goes on the report, so you can plan any repair.
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.
