Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Tattenham Corner

Not all extract fans are the same: roof-mounted units, inline fans within the duct, and wall fans. The way in depends on the type and the survey shows us how to reach it. Common call-outs are for thick grease on the impeller and casing and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, across centrifugal fans, in-line fans and fan housings.

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.

Think of the report as the 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.

What affects the quote in Tattenham Corner

You will get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:

  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • The condition of the system
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Parking and loading at the site

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

For landlords and multi-site operators

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

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. We also offer a 24/7 emergency callout if the worst happens. Somewhere as small as Tattenham Corner, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

How the job changes from site to site

Roof-mounted fans

Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface, so the outlet area is checked too. Heavy staining is noted on the report.

Kitchens with long cooking hours

In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, so grease and wear build up together. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.

How it works

Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. For a village or hamlet like Tattenham Corner, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
  2. The fan is isolated so it can’t start while we work.
  3. Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
  4. We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
  5. We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.

How to prepare

  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Related advice

Tattenham Corner questions

Do you cover smaller places like Tattenham Corner?

Yes, Tattenham Corner is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Tattenham Corner?

Food hygiene inspections in Tattenham Corner are carried out by Reigate and Banstead council. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.

Why is my extract fan noisy?

Build-up on the impeller is a frequent reason, because it unbalances the fan. It can also be wear in the bearings or motor, which our report will flag.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

Are you fully insured?

Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.

How often should the extract fan be cleaned?

It’s cleaned with the whole extract, from every 3 months for 12 to 16 hours of cooking a day to every 12 months for 2 to 6 hours. Readings may show it needs cleaning more often.

What happens to the waste?

We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.

Between visits

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Make sure the fan is included each time
  • Leave a clear route to the fan
  • Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
  • Keep records of every fan clean

When the fan is cleaned as part of a full TR19® Grease clean, a TR19 certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. A fan-only clean is recorded in the photo report.

Do not run the kitchen with the extract off. Air that keeps moving carries vapour out rather than letting it settle, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Tattenham Corner?

The fan sits at the end of the grease’s journey. The grease that’s left lands on the blades and the casing where the spinning blades spread it around.

Clients usually contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
  • Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
  • Hot, greasy smells near the fan
  • A fan that no longer moves enough air

School kitchens, at schools like Epsom Downs Primary School and Children's Centre for example, are typically cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost.
