Tell us about it when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and you will get a fixed price, normally within one working day. Typical jobs include an extract fan that vibrates or rattles and a fan that no longer moves enough air, on centrifugal fans, axial fans and discharge points.

In a small place like Ramsden Bellhouse, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Ramsden Bellhouse

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Travel, parking and unloading

The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Problems your staff have spotted

If you need extract fan cleaning in Ramsden Bellhouse, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.

The process

There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two for most single fans. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Ramsden Bellhouse.

  1. First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
  2. With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
  3. We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
  4. The fan and its surrounds are degreased, keeping clear of the motor’s electrics.
  5. We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.

Before we arrive

  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Get a fixed quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Advice

What your team can do, and what needs us

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Aftercare tips

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Run the extract throughout cooking
  • Make sure the fan is included each time
  • Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
  • Report grease escaping from 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.

Listen to the fan. New noise or vibration often means grease is building on the impeller, and catching it early keeps it a cleaning job.

Leave it or put it right?

Grease on the fan is grease in the system. A TR19 clean that left out the fan wouldn’t cover the whole system and many insurers require the full system to be cleaned to TR19. Somewhere as small as Ramsden Bellhouse, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Can you get to a site in Ramsden Bellhouse?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

Will we have to shut during the visit?

Not usually. We need the work area to ourselves while we’re on site, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.

How far ahead should we book?

Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Every site has its own report.

Do you work out of hours?

Yes. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote and we’ll plan the visit around them.

How often does the fan need cleaning?

Daily cooking hours set the minimum in BESA guidance. At the extremes, that is 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.

Part by part

Kitchens with long cooking hours

A long-hours kitchen can’t afford a fan failure. A clean fan is less likely to strain, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.

Inline duct fans

Some fans are built into the duct itself. We get to them through the duct or casing after isolating them.

Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Fire safety in Ramsden Bellhouse falls to Essex County Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
