Hampshire · Extract fan cleaning
Extract fan cleaning in Stanmore, Hampshire
For extract fan cleaning in Stanmore, one call is all it takes: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
How we handle extract fan cleaning in Stanmore
Grease on a fan isn’t spread evenly. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, which brings vibration, noise and extra wear on the bearings and motor. A thorough clean removes the cause. If you are dealing with a fan left out of previous cleans and a smell of hot grease from the extract, we can put it right, from discharge points, fan housings and roof-mounted fans onwards.
In a smaller place like Stanmore, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Stanmore and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Different parts, different methods
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.
Roof-mounted fans
Roof fans also discharge grease onto the roof around them, so the outlet area is checked too. We note any grease around the fan.
What affects the quote in Stanmore
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The size of the system
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The condition of the system
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.
What to send for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
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 work begins.
When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.

Extract fan cleaning around Stanmore
The FSA’s data shows about 32 pubs and bars and about 4 hotels and B&Bs registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Stanmore. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Stanmore is covered by 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. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Stanmore. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector.
Church and community hall kitchens, near Saint Luke or anywhere around Stanmore, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. For schools such as Stanmore Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Questions from Stanmore
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Stanmore in the summer holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. There are about 20 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Stanmore. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Stanmore?
Stanmore is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Can you work evenings and weekends?
Yes. Much of our work happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so you don’t have to close during trading.
How much does extract fan cleaning cost in Stanmore?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes. TR19® Grease covers the whole system, fan included. We clean it alongside the canopy, ductwork and discharge.
What makes a kitchen extract fan vibrate?
Uneven grease on the impeller often causes it. After cleaning, we’ll tell you if wear or damage is also involved.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
We isolate the fan, so the kitchen cannot cook while we work. That is why fan cleans are done out of hours, and the kitchen is ready when we leave.
How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. We plan the journey to Stanmore and bring what the job is likely to need.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- 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
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Related advice
When to call us in Stanmore
Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in Stanmore as anywhere. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it, and a hot, struggling motor does not help.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Royal Hampshire County Hospital (about 0.7 miles north-east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
What your quote should include
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Proof of insurance
