Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
Extract fan cleaning in Stonebridge Green
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and you will get a fixed price, normally within one working day. The work covers roof-mounted fans, in-line fans and fan housings, and people most often call us about hot, greasy smells near the fan and less air being pulled from the kitchen.
Somewhere as small as Stonebridge Green, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Stonebridge Green questions
Which council inspects kitchens in Stonebridge Green?
Food hygiene inspections in Stonebridge Green are carried out by Ashford council. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Stonebridge Green in the summer holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 3 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Stonebridge Green. You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
How often does the fan need cleaning?
It depends on how many hours the kitchen cooks, under BESA guidance. At the extremes, that is 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
The process
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes an hour or two for most single fans. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Stonebridge Green knowing what to expect.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- 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
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Getting a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: 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 many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Why it’s worth doing now in Stonebridge Green
A fan that sounds rough in Stonebridge Green is often telling you the extract needs a clean. Grease on the fan means grease in the duct before it so a full TR19 clean may be due. In a place like Stonebridge Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Why book with us
- Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not turn the fan off mid-service
- Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
- Keep access to the fan clear
- Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
The photo report shows the fan before and after cleaning. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.
A change in how the fan sounds is worth noting. Rattles, hums or shaking can be early signs of build-up or wear, and catching it early keeps it a cleaning job.
Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Stonebridge Green
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Grease, kitchens and Stonebridge Green
Kent Fire and Rescue Service covers Stonebridge Green. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. It’s Ashford council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Stonebridge Green. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Egerton Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Historic houses near Stonebridge Green, such as Godinton House about 5 miles south-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Stonebridge Green?
Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- A fan shaking on its mounts
Where a hall near Church of St James, or anywhere in Stonebridge Green, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
