Extract fan cleaning in Tinkers Cross
We have been trading since 2009. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, we clean to BESA TR19® Grease, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 and full insurance. If you have a heavily greased fan housing and a fan that has never been cleaned, we can help, from axial fans, in-line fans and discharge points onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Tinkers Cross, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. In a small place like Tinkers Cross, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We start by checking where the fan sits and how to isolate it.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

What else we do in Tinkers Cross
Grease, kitchens and Tinkers Cross
Look up Tinkers Cross on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 11 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 7 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Tinkers Cross. Each kitchen extract among them ends at a fan, and grease on the impeller strains the motor. Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Tinkers Cross. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Tinkers Cross sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Tinkers Cross (Breamore House is about 2.2 miles north), fitting access panels needs care.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Tinkers Cross
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- The times the site is available
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
What we are called out for in Tinkers Cross
Grease builds up unevenly on the blades. Over time, that imbalance shakes the fan and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grease around the motor and its mounts
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- A heavily greased fan housing
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Fordingbridge Junior School or anywhere near Tinkers Cross, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
What to look for in a quote
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether a written report and photos are included
Different parts, different methods
Kitchens with long cooking hours
Kitchens that cook 12 to 16 hours a day put the most grease through their fans. Under BESA guidance, heavy use means cleaning at least every 3 months, fan included.
Impellers and blades
A clean impeller shows any damage: cracks, bent blades or wear. We note any concerns.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Common questions in Tinkers Cross
Which fire authority looks after Tinkers Cross?
Fire safety enforcement in Tinkers Cross is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Will you come out to Tinkers Cross?
Yes, Tinkers Cross is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
Anything beyond cleaning is flagged, with what we found. We can repair or replace it, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.
Does a TR19 kitchen extract clean cover the fan?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. If a fan cannot be reached, the report says so, so you always know what was cleaned.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Can the work be done while we’re closed?
Yes. Give us your opening hours with your enquiry and we will book around them.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Why act early in Tinkers Cross
Grease on the impeller makes the fan less efficient. Airflow at the canopy drops and the kitchen gets hotter and smokier, while the motor runs under more strain. A fault that closes a site in a village like Tinkers Cross affects everyone who depends on it.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
