Grease, kitchens and Salvington
Salvington is within about 3 miles of the coast. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. Food Standards Agency records include about 29 pubs and bars within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Salvington. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. In Salvington, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Worthing council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Durrington Infant School or anywhere near Salvington, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Symphorian's Church or elsewhere in Salvington, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

About our extract fan cleaning in Salvington
If the extract fan in Salvington has become noisy, weak or greasy? Tell us about it when you call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and you’ll get a fixed price, usually within one working day. The work covers centrifugal fans, in-line fans and discharge points, and common reasons people get in touch are a fan that hums, whines or rumbles and a fan that no longer moves enough air.
Around a smaller place like Salvington, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Salvington
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. A site near Salvington typically has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it can’t 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
Advice
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How easy every part is to reach
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
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 we start.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The site address and the type of premises
- A few general shots of the system
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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 we can price many jobs without a visit.
Do you need extract fan cleaning in Salvington?
Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. The difference throws the impeller off balance, wearing bearings and mounts. Left too long, grease turns into wear.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grease stains around the discharge
- Burning smells from the fan area
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- A fan that has never been cleaned
Ecclesden Manor, about 3.2 miles west, is one of the historic houses near Salvington; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

How the job changes from site to site
Fan housings and motors
We clean around the motor without soaking its electrics, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease around the motor can make it run hotter, so the surrounding area is cleaned carefully.
Roof-mounted fans
On a roof, the air is cooler and grease drops out faster. We scrape and degrease the blades and casing.
Salvington: your questions answered
Is Salvington within the area you cover?
Yes, Salvington is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can sea air affect extract fan cleaning in Salvington?
It can. Salt air reaches Salvington, which is within about 3 miles of the coast, and it speeds up rust. A fan housing that’s rusting near the coast can fail sooner, so it’s worth catching early.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
Anything beyond cleaning is flagged, with what we found. We can repair or replace it, and if it fails outright, our 24/7 emergency line is there.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, it should be. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan is a key part of it, so it’s cleaned too.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few photos and any previous report.
What happens if it’s left?
An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It can wear the bearings and lead to failure, which may leave the kitchen without extraction. Cleaning it early is far less disruptive. You choose the date of a planned visit, and a breakdown never asks.
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
