Extract fan cleaning in Perivale: the local picture
Food Standards Agency records list about 174 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 120 takeaways and sandwich shops across Perivale 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. It’s Ealing council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Perivale. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. In London, kitchens are normally cleaned overnight, when the kitchen is closed and loading is easier.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St. Mary with St. Nicholas - Perivale, or anywhere in Perivale, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St John Fisher Catholic Primary School or anywhere near Perivale, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hospital like Clementine Churchill Hospital, about 1.9 miles north, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Extract fan cleaning in Perivale
Every kitchen extract depends on its fan: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing and we clean it off. If you have thick grease on the impeller and casing and a fan that hums, whines or rumbles, we can put it right.
London kitchens tend to trade late and open early, so work in Perivale is normally booked for the night or the early hours. Parking, loading and access to the roof are agreed with the building before the night of the clean.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Part by part
Roof-mounted fans
On a roof, the air is cooler and grease drops out faster. The impeller and housing are scraped and degreased.
Impellers and blades
The impeller is the spinning part that moves the air, and grease builds up on them unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.
How we price extract fan cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- The condition of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The number of sites or systems
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

- Any previous report or certificate

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Perivale
Can school kitchens in Perivale be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 35 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Perivale. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Who inspects food businesses in Perivale?
In Perivale, it’s Ealing council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Is Perivale in your area?
Yes. We work in Perivale and across Greater London, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote and we’ll plan the visit around them.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
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 where several people have control, each can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
What a clean won’t put right
Extract fan cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It does not solve:
- A fan that will not start
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- Damaged fan blades
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.
Where we work

What else we do in Perivale
The process
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Perivale is no exception.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- The fan is isolated so it can’t start while we work.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear the space around the work
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Getting a quote

Advice
Why act early in Perivale
Vibration from an unbalanced impeller does not stay small. It wears bearings and mounts and can lead to a breakdown and a kitchen can’t cook safely without extraction. A planned clean beats an emergency. In Perivale, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
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.
