About our extract fan cleaning in Sandwich Bay Estate
The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. A fan-only clean is recorded as exactly that. If you are dealing with a fan coated in grease inside its housing and an extract fan that vibrates or rattles, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Sandwich Bay Estate, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually 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.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Different parts, different methods
Fan housings and motors
Some fans use a belt drive. We clean around them and note any wear for your records.
Inline duct fans
Inline fans sit within the duct run, often above a ceiling. We get to them through the duct or casing after isolating them.
What we’re called out for in Sandwich Bay Estate
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.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- A heavily greased fan housing
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Sandwich Bay Estate (Walmer Castle is about 4.6 miles south), fitting access panels needs care.

Questions from Sandwich Bay Estate
Can you come to Sandwich Bay Estate after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Will you come out to Sandwich Bay Estate?
Yes, Sandwich Bay Estate is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Will I get pictures of the cleaned fan?
You get a photo report with before and after pictures of the fan. If it’s part of a full TR19 clean, a TR19 certificate is issued too.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. Anything that cannot be reached is recorded, so the record is accurate.
Can you fix a fan that is worn out?
A fan that needs repair is noted on the report, with what we found. We offer extract fan repair and replacement, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.
Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Leave it or put it right?
An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It can wear the bearings and lead to failure and a kitchen can’t cook safely without extraction. Cleaning it early is far less disruptive. A planned visit to Sandwich Bay Estate is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will explain what it covers.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Sandwich Bay Estate and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know about parking and loading
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.

What affects the quote in Sandwich Bay Estate
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- What state the system is in
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
