Extract fan cleaning in Rew Street, done properly
Any fan serving a kitchen in Rew Street is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. Your report shows the impeller as we found it and as we left it. If you have rough running from the extract fan and an extract fan with no cleaning record, we can put it right, from centrifugal fans, discharge points and axial fans onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Rew Street, 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.
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.

Rew Street questions
Does the sea air around Rew Street make a difference to extract fan cleaning?
It can. Salt air reaches Rew Street, which is within about 2 miles of the coast, and it speeds up rust. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at each visit.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Rew Street during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 5 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Rew Street. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
How long is a fan clean?
One easily reached fan is quick, but hard-to-reach fans take more time. We plan it out of hours.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
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 records stay tidy.
What extract fan cleaning cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
- Wiring faults to the fan
- Damaged fan blades
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- In-line fans
- Discharge points
- Fan housings
- Axial fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Centrifugal fans
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The condition we find in the survey
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The number of sites or systems
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Your last certificate, test record or report

What extract fan cleaning looks like in Rew Street
The coast is only about 2 miles from Rew Street. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The FSA’s data shows about 6 pubs and bars registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Rew Street. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Rew Street is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near All Saints' Church or elsewhere in Rew Street, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St Mary's Hospital is the nearest hospital to Rew Street, about 2.8 miles south-east.

How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Rew Street run smoothly.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Related advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
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. Leave those to us.
When to call us in Rew Street
By the time air reaches the fan, it has passed the canopy, filters and duct. The grease that’s left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- Burning smells from the fan area
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Osborne House is about 2.8 miles east), access may need planning.
What your quote should include
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- Proof of insurance
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
Why it’s worth doing now in Rew Street
For a kitchen in Rew Street, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. If the fan is coated, the duct before it usually is too so a full TR19 clean may be due. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Rew Street rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
