Extract fan cleaning in Pusey, done properly
A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Uneven build-up unbalances the impeller, which brings vibration, noise and extra wear on the bearings and motor. A thorough clean removes the cause. Common call-outs are for burning smells from the fan area and a fan left out of previous cleans, on discharge points, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans.
In a village or hamlet like Pusey, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Leave it or put it right?
A greasy fan has to work harder to move the same air. Less air is pulled from the kitchen, so heat and smoke linger, while the motor runs under more strain. Planning a trip to Pusey ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will explain what it covers.

When to call us in Pusey
Grease condenses as the air cools, and a fan out on a roof or wall often sits where the air is coolest. That makes it a natural place for grease to settle.
Look out for these warning signs:
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- A heavily greased fan housing
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Pusey, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

The process
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 floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Pusey.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Move anything stored near the system
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Getting a quote
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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Pusey: your questions answered
Which council inspects kitchens in Pusey?
In Pusey, it’s Vale of White Horse council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Is Pusey within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Pusey included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
A common cause is grease. Grease collects unevenly and unbalances the impeller, causing vibration and noise. If cleaning does not, the bearings or motor may need attention.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
We also repair and replace extract fans. If we find wear or damage, we will explain it and send you a fixed quote.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you work out of hours?
Yes, and that’s how we prefer to work. We book the visit for when the area is out of use, whether that is late evening, overnight or a weekend.
Extract fan cleaning around Pusey
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service covers Pusey. 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. Kitchens in Pusey get their food hygiene inspections from Vale of White Horse council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Historic houses near Pusey, such as Longworth House about 2.4 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. For schools such as Buckland Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What affects the quote in Pusey
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How easy every part is to reach
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The condition we find in the survey
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Helping us quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
