How we handle extract fan cleaning in Tottenham Green
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? A few details or a photo help when you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll give you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Tottenham Green, usually within one working day. The work covers fan housings, in-line fans and roof-mounted fans, and common reasons people get in touch are vibration from an unbalanced impeller and a fan that hums, whines or rumbles.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, and the duct may run up through several floors before it discharges at the roof. For a kitchen in Tottenham Green, that usually means a longer system to clean and more access panels to plan around.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Tottenham Green kitchens: local notes
Look up Tottenham Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 338 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 125 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Tottenham Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Tottenham Green sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading is not affected.
For schools such as Earlsmead Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. A kitchen near Seven Sisters station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval. Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of Holy Trinity or anywhere around Tottenham Green, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

Questions from Tottenham Green
Can parking be tricky for a job in Tottenham Green?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Tottenham Green makes the visit easier to plan. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Who inspects food businesses in Tottenham Green?
That is Haringey council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Tottenham Green. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we have been trading since 2009.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
How often does the fan need cleaning?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum, under BESA guidance. Heavy use means at least every 3 months, light use at least every 12, fan included.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What should I send you?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
Leave it or put it right?
An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It wears bearings and mounts and can lead to a breakdown and a kitchen can’t cook safely without extraction. A planned clean beats an emergency. London buildings are shared, so a fire or failure in one system can reach the neighbours above and beside you.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Why us?
- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- Photo reports with every job
- Every job surveyed first

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The scale of the work
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Where the site is and how we reach it
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Need a price for extract fan cleaning? Please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before anything is booked.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. 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 a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we are happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Tottenham Green.
- 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.
- We remove the grease from the blades, impeller and casing.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and pictures go into your report.
Before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Advice
Managing agents and facilities teams in Tottenham Green
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Part by part
Kitchens with long cooking hours
When a busy kitchen’s fan fails, cooking stops. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Inline duct fans
An inline fan can be easy to forget because it’s out of sight. The survey makes sure it’s part of the clean.
