Surrey · Extract fan cleaning
Tilford Reeds extract fan cleaning
For extract fan cleaning in Tilford Reeds, one call is all it takes: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep access to the fan clear
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
When we’ve finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Fewer grease particles reaching the fan means less build-up. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Extract fan cleaning in Tilford Reeds
The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but a fan can also need attention on its own, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. If you have a fan motor running hot under a coat of grease and a fan coated in grease inside its housing, we can help.
Work in a small place like Tilford Reeds starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How we price extract fan cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The number of sites or systems
- What state the system is in
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Do you need extract fan cleaning in Tilford Reeds?
The fan sits at the end of the grease’s journey. The grease that is left lands on the blades and the casing, and the spinning blades fling it onto the walls of the housing.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- Vibration from an unbalanced impeller
- A motor area thick with grease
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
Farnham Castle, about 3 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses near Tilford Reeds; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

Tilford Reeds questions
Can you work in Tilford Reeds outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Tilford Reeds doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work in villages like Tilford Reeds?
Yes. Tilford Reeds is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
Cleaning removes grease, but it cannot fix worn parts. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.
Will I get pictures of the cleaned fan?
A photo report, including the fan’s condition and the next clean date. Keep it with your maintenance log.
Different parts, different methods
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.
Wall fans
Smaller kitchens may extract through a fan on an outside wall. It’s isolated, opened and cleaned inside and out.
How it works
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. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. In a small place like Tilford Reeds, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
