Extract fan cleaning in Sunbury-on-Thames, done properly
In Sunbury-on-Thames, as everywhere we work, the fan follows a set routine: we isolate it, open the housing, scrape the impeller and degrease the lot. The result is photographed for your records. If you have a fan that has never been cleaned and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, we can help, from in-line fans, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans onwards.
In a town like Sunbury-on-Thames, most of the kitchen extracts we’re asked about belong to restaurants, cafés, pubs, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Whatever the kitchen, the canopy, filters, duct and fan all collect grease, and each is cleaned to the same TR19® standard.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Why deal with it now?
A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. The sooner the work is done, the simpler the job for a site in Sunbury-on-Thames.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Environmental health officers from Spelthorne council inspect food businesses in Sunbury-on-Thames. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

Part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
Long cooking hours mean more grease reaches the fan. Under BESA guidance, heavy use means cleaning at least every 3 months, fan included.
Fan housings and motors
Belt-driven fans have a drive belt and pulleys that can collect grease. We clean around them and note any wear for your records.

What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Sunbury-on-Thames
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The condition of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
If you need extract fan cleaning in Sunbury-on-Thames, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
If the fan needs more than a clean, we will say so plainly. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
Do not run the kitchen with the extract off. Grease settles faster when the air stops moving, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.

Advice
When to call us in Sunbury-on-Thames
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and on a roof or outside wall the fan can be in some of the coolest air in the system. So grease often settles heavily there.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- An extract fan with no cleaning record
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Saviour, or anywhere in Sunbury-on-Thames, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What paperwork you get at the end
