Extract fan cleaning in Puckpool, done properly
We have been trading since 2009. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and full insurance. Typical jobs include fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan and a motor area thick with grease, across fan housings, discharge points and in-line fans.
Work in a small place like Puckpool starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The condition we find in the survey
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The site address and the type of premises
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
How it works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. For a village or hamlet like Puckpool, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Clear loose items from the work area
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Advice
Extract fan cleaning in Puckpool: the local picture
At about 1 mile from the coast, Puckpool is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 17 bars, pubs and nightclubs and about 9 hotels and B&Bs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Puckpool. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. It’s Isle of Wight council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Puckpool. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Gosport War Memorial Hospital about 4.7 miles north, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. School kitchens, at schools like Oakfield Church of England Aided Primary School for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. Nunwell House, about 3.1 miles south, is one of the historic houses near Puckpool; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
Puckpool is about 1 mile east of Ryde, in the Isle of Wight. Whatever kind of site you run in Puckpool, extract fan cleaning is something we can help with.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Puckpool
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Puckpool?
The local authority for Puckpool is Isle of Wight council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Puckpool during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 8 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Puckpool. You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you offer extract fan cleaning separately?
Yes, we can clean just the fan. It’s useful when a fan is noisy or greasy between full cleans, but it doesn’t replace a full TR19 clean.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes. TR19® Grease covers the whole system, fan included. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned along with the canopy, plenum, filters, ducts and discharge.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What does extract fan cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before we start.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Damaged fan blades
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
- A motor that has burnt out
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- In-line fans
- Centrifugal fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Axial fans
- Discharge points
- Fan housings
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
A full system clean includes a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. A fan-only clean is recorded in the photo report.
Make sure the fan is reachable. A fan that can be reached safely is a fan that gets cleaned, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.
What else we do in Puckpool
Multi-site and managed buildings
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.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
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. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Why Puckpool businesses choose us
- A fixed price before any work starts
- Fully insured
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001
How the job changes from site to site
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. We clean them where they can be safely reached, with any limits noted.
Impellers and blades
Grease on the leading edges of the blades cuts the fan’s efficiency. We clean each blade back to its surface, so the fan can run as intended.
