Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Radnage
A clean fan is not a repaired fan. If we find worn bearings, a struggling motor or damage to the impeller, we’ll tell you, and we also repair and replace extract fans. You get an honest view of the fan’s condition. The work covers centrifugal fans, axial fans and in-line fans, and people most often call us about a smell of hot grease from the extract and a fan that has never been cleaned.
In a village or hamlet like Radnage, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally 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.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Questions from Radnage
Do you work in villages like Radnage?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Radnage is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which council inspects kitchens in Radnage?
The local authority for Radnage is Buckinghamshire council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. If a fan can’t be reached, the report says so, so the record is accurate.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we will book around them.
Different parts, different methods
Inline duct fans
Space around an inline fan can be tight, so the method is planned in advance. Anything out of reach is recorded.
Roof-mounted fans
A roof fan sits in cooler air, so grease can settle heavily. The impeller and housing are scraped and degreased.
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- Leave a clear route to the fan
When we have finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Air that keeps moving carries vapour out rather than letting it settle, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Radnage.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know about parking and loading
Get a fixed quote
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.

When to call us in Radnage
Grease condenses as the air cools, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. So grease often settles heavily there.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Wycombe Hospital about 5.5 miles south-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
What your quote should include
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- How they set the interval to the next visit
Extract fan cleaning in Radnage: the local picture
There are about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens in Radnage and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. The fan at the end of each of those extracts collects grease that slows it and wears the motor. Kitchens in Radnage get their food hygiene inspections from Buckinghamshire council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Radnage falls to Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Radnage, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. For schools such as Radnage Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

What’s near Radnage
Around Radnage, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near The Three Horseshoes Inn and the streets around them. Radnage’s nearest station is Saunderton station, roughly 1.6 miles east. Well-known places in the area include Wycombe Hospital (5.5 miles south-east). For a walk, there’s Yoesden and Bald Hill.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
