About our extract fan cleaning in Timsbury

A fan never collects grease in a neat, even layer. Heavier deposits on some blades throw the impeller off balance, which brings vibration, noise and extra wear on the bearings and motor. A thorough clean removes the cause. If you’re dealing with weak extraction at the canopy and an extract fan that vibrates or rattles, we can help.

Work in a small place like Timsbury starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.

Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When to call us in Timsbury

Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in Timsbury as anywhere. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it, and a hot, struggling motor does not help.

Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:

  • A smell of hot grease from the extract
  • A fan left out of previous cleans
  • Grease stains around the discharge
  • A heavily greased fan housing

Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of St Andrew, or anywhere in Timsbury, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • What’s included in the scope, part by part
  • What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Aftercare tips

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Leave a clear route to the fan
  • Book the fan into every full TR19 clean
  • Listen for new noises or vibration from the fan
  • Do not turn the fan off mid-service

Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.

Stick to the interval for the full extract. A fan cleaned with the rest of the system on time rarely gets badly coated, in line with BESA guidance.

What extract fan cleaning looks like in Timsbury

Look up Timsbury on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens across Timsbury and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. In Timsbury, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Test Valley council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Timsbury. 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.

For schools such as Stanbridge Earls School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Historic houses near Timsbury, such as Mottisfont Abbey about 1.6 miles north-west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • The scale of the work
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Travel, parking and unloading

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

What to send for a quote

To help us quote quickly, send us:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

Why deal with it now?

Cleaning the fan in Timsbury now is a short job: it takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. Leaving it means more wear, more noise and a bigger clean later. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Timsbury is calmer for everyone.

The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

Timsbury: your questions answered

Do you work in villages like Timsbury?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Timsbury is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you come to Timsbury after we close?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?

Yes. A TR19 Grease clean covers everything from canopy to discharge, and the fan sits right in that path, so it’s cleaned too.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.

What does extract fan cleaning cost?

We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.

Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?

Yes. We record it as a fan-only clean, so your TR19 records stay accurate. The full system still needs its regular TR19 clean.

What do you need from me for a quote?

A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.

What a clean will not put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A faulty speed controller or isolator
  • A fan that was never right for the kitchen
  • Damaged fan blades

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on in Timsbury

  • Axial fans
  • Discharge points
  • In-line fans
  • Roof-mounted fans
  • Centrifugal fans
  • Fan housings

How it works

At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Timsbury before we set off.

  1. First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
  2. With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
  3. The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
  4. Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
  5. The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Ask for a quote

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
