Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Shaw
If the ducts are the arteries, the fan is the heart. A heart under strain works harder for less. We clean it, run it and note anything that needs a closer look, before signing it off. Typical jobs include grease around the motor and its mounts and fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan, on fan housings, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans.
Kitchens around a place like Shaw are often in older buildings or single-storey extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Long horizontal runs like that hold grease and need access panels to reach.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Different parts, different methods
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans sit at the top of the riser. We clean them where they can be safely reached, with any limits noted.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
When a busy kitchen’s fan fails, cooking stops. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Extract fan cleaning around Shaw
There are about 92 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 25 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Shaw, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on a fan that gathers grease as it runs. Food hygiene inspections in Shaw are the job of West Berkshire council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. The fire and rescue service for Shaw is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you cook for passing trade around Newbury Racecourse station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Parish Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Shaw, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Why deal with it now?
For a kitchen in Shaw, a noisy, greasy fan is often the first sign the whole system is overdue. Grease on the fan means grease in the duct before it, so it’s worth checking the whole system. When a site near Shaw shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Shaw questions
Who is the fire and rescue service for Shaw?
It’s Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Shaw. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Shaw during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 7 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Shaw. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote and we will book around them.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
How long is a fan clean?
A single accessible fan does not take long, but hard-to-reach fans take more time. We plan it out of hours.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, the fan is part of a full TR19® Grease clean. We clean it alongside the canopy, ductwork and discharge.
What staff can safely do
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Shaw when you book.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
