About our extract fan cleaning in Pedlars End
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and you’ll get a fixed price, usually within one working day. If you have a fan shaking on its mounts and a smell of hot grease from the extract, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What we are called out for in Pedlars End
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. When filters do not seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Clients normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A heavily greased fan housing
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Pedlars End, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Extract fan cleaning in Pedlars End: the local picture
Essex County Fire and Rescue Service covers Pedlars End. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. At about 21 miles from central London, Pedlars End sits well inside the area we cover. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site.
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Pedlars End is St. Margaret's Hospital, about 4.5 miles south-west. For schools such as Moreton Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

FAQs for Pedlars End
Do you cover smaller places like Pedlars End?
Yes, Pedlars End is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Pedlars End?
That is Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
What should I send you?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Do you need to turn the fan off to clean it?
It has to be off and isolated, for safety. Cleans are done when the kitchen is closed, so cooking isn’t affected.
Why it’s worth doing now in Pedlars End
Without a working extract fan, a kitchen can’t cook safely. Many fan problems start with grease, so keeping it clean is part of keeping it running. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.

The process
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Somewhere as small as Pedlars End, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- 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.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Fewer grease particles reaching the fan means less build-up. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
Different parts, different methods
Inline duct fans
Inline fans can be in tight spaces, so we plan how to reach and clean them. If it can’t be reached fully, the report says so.
Roof-mounted fans
Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface and we check the area around the outlet. Heavy staining is noted on the report.
