Managing agents and facilities teams in Tangley
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
About our extract fan cleaning in Tangley
If the ducts are the arteries, the fan is the heart. A heart under strain works harder for less. Our job is to clear it, check it runs smoothly and record what we found, before signing it off. If you have a fan that no longer moves enough air and a fan coated in grease inside its housing, we can help, from discharge points, roof-mounted fans and centrifugal fans onwards.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Flag smoke lingering at the canopy
Keep the report with the maintenance log and fire risk assessment. It gives a dated record of the fan’s condition, which helps if anything changes later.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Tangley
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The times the site is available

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it

To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Questions from Tangley
Which fire service covers Tangley?
That’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Which council inspects kitchens in Tangley?
That’s Test Valley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Tangley. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not typically. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
One easily reached fan is quick, while fans on high roofs or in tight voids take longer. It’s done while the kitchen is closed.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.

Tangley kitchens: local notes
The fire and rescue service for Tangley is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Tangley. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Thomas of Canterbury or elsewhere in Tangley, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Andover War Memorial Hospital (about 4.3 miles south), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
Tangley is about 5 miles north-west of Andover, in Hampshire.

What happens if it’s left?
A fan that fails mid-service can stop a kitchen cooking. Many fan problems start with grease, so keeping it clean is part of keeping it running. If it does fail, our 24/7 emergency line is there. If the system at a site near Tangley fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
What happens on the day
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Tangley run smoothly.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
How to prepare
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
