How we handle extract fan cleaning in Titchfield
Not all extract fans are the same: roof-mounted units, inline fans within the duct, and wall fans. Each is isolated and opened in its own way and the survey shows us how to reach it. Typical jobs include grease stains around the discharge and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, on axial fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans.
Somewhere as small as Titchfield, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
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
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two for most single fans. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Titchfield.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run the fan and photograph the result.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Titchfield
Do you cover smaller places like Titchfield?
Yes, Titchfield is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Does coastal air change anything about extract fan cleaning in Titchfield?
It can. Salt air reaches Titchfield, which is within about 2 miles of the coast, and it speeds up rust. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
A clean will not mend wear. We repair and replace extract fans as well, with a fixed quote first.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
An unbalanced impeller, normally from uneven grease, is a common cause. After cleaning, we will tell you if wear or damage is also involved.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.

Leave it or put it right?
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. That stains surfaces and can add to the fire risk outside the building, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Planning a trip to Titchfield ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.

Extract fan cleaning in Titchfield: the local picture
Sea air reaches Titchfield, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Salt air speeds up corrosion of roof-level fans, discharge cowls and their fixings. The Food Standards Agency lists about 8 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses in and around Titchfield, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. In Titchfield, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Fareham council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
A hospital like Fareham Community Hospital, about 2.3 miles north-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Titchfield Primary School or anywhere near Titchfield, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
Titchfield is about 2 miles west of Fareham, in Hampshire. Sites in Titchfield get the same service as everywhere we cover: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with pictures. Titchfield is one of 683 places in Hampshire where we work for extract fan cleaning. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, about 7 miles away.

Within a short drive, we also cover Winchester (15 miles north), Gosport (5 miles south-east), Havant (11 miles east), Eastleigh (10 miles north-west), Horndean (11 miles north-east) and Totton (13 miles north-west).

Common problems we fix in Titchfield
The cooler the air, the more grease drops out, and a fan out on a roof or wall often sits where the air is coolest. So grease often settles heavily there.
Clients usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- A fan shaking on its mounts
- A fan motor running hot under a coat of grease
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
Where a hall near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Titchfield, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Questions to ask before booking
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether a survey comes first
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
File the photo report with your other extract records. It shows the fan’s condition at the time of the clean, which helps if anything changes later.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. A fan cleaned with the rest of the system on time rarely gets badly coated, in line with BESA guidance.
What the work involves, part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A long-hours kitchen can’t afford a fan failure. A clean fan is less likely to strain, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Wall fans
Wall fans often have a short duct, so grease reaches them quickly. They may need cleaning as often as the canopy, which grease readings will show.
