About our extract fan cleaning in Sarisbury
Any fan serving a kitchen in Sarisbury is cleaned the same careful way as anywhere else: isolated first, then opened, scraped and degreased. The result is photographed for your records. If you are dealing with an extract fan with no cleaning record and grease stains around the discharge, we can help, from in-line fans, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans onwards.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Sarisbury gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

FAQs for Sarisbury
Can you get to a site in Sarisbury?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which council inspects kitchens in Sarisbury?
In Sarisbury, it’s Fareham council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
We also repair and replace extract fans. If we find wear or damage, we’ll explain it and send you a fixed quote.
How often does the fan need cleaning?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum, under BESA guidance. Heavy use means at least every 3 months, light use at least every 12, fan included.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Sarisbury
Sarisbury is within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 11 pubs, bars and clubs within about 1.5 miles of central Sarisbury. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. Fire safety in Sarisbury falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
A kitchen near Swanwick station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Paul or anywhere around Sarisbury, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

- A fan that was never right for the kitchen
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- Wiring faults to the fan

Common problems we fix in Sarisbury
Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. Over time, that imbalance shakes the fan and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
Look out for any of the following:
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Sarisbury Church of England Junior School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether a survey comes first

Part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A long-hours kitchen cannot afford a fan failure. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Inline duct fans
Hidden in a ceiling void, an inline fan is easily missed. We find it during the survey and include it in the clean.
Why act early in Sarisbury
Cleaning the fan in Sarisbury now is a short job: the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Waiting adds vibration, wear and a harder clean. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Sarisbury at a time that suits you.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What you get with us
- Fixed quotes from a survey or pictures
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- Photo reports with every job

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Sarisbury
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What we do, step by step
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Around Sarisbury, access is normally simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Clear the space around the work
