Extract fan cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Upper Wield
If the ducts are the arteries, the fan is the heart. A greasy fan works harder and moves less air. Our job is to clear it, check it runs smoothly and record what we found, before signing it off. Typical jobs include hot, greasy smells near the fan and a fan that no longer moves enough air, on centrifugal fans, axial fans and fan housings.
For a kitchen in or near Upper Wield, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What extract fan cleaning can’t fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Wield
A fan that sounds rough in Upper Wield is often telling you the extract needs a clean. Grease on the fan means grease in the duct before it so a full TR19 clean may be due. Planning a trip to Upper Wield ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Why us?
- In business since 2009

- Each visit written up, with pictures

Part by part
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
While the impeller is clean, we can see its condition: chips, distortion or wear. Anything we see goes on the report.
What affects the quote in Upper Wield
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
- What state the system is in
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Upper Wield
We cover Upper Wield, about 50 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included. Upper Wield sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
A hospital like Alton Community Hospital, about 4.8 miles east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Hall Place is about 2.2 miles east), access may need planning. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St James or elsewhere in Upper Wield, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Upper Wield is about 5 miles west of Alton, in Hampshire. Upper Wield gets the same approach as every site we work on: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with pictures. Across Hampshire, we cover 683 places, Upper Wield among them. Southampton is in our area too, about 20 miles from Upper Wield.

Local landmarks in Upper Wield
Locally, jobs take us to businesses close to The Yew Tree pub and the streets around them. Well-known places in the area include Barton Castle (0.7 miles south-west) and Alton Community Hospital (4.8 miles east). For a walk, there’s King's Hill.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
The process
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. For a village or hamlet like Upper Wield, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- Once isolated, we open the fan up.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- We run the fan and note its condition in the photo report.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Move anything stored near the system
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Get a fixed quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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’re happy to quote for all of it.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
Upper Wield: your questions answered
Can the work in Upper Wield be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Upper Wield needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which council inspects kitchens in Upper Wield?
Food hygiene inspections in Upper Wield are carried out by East Hampshire council. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
Do you repair extract fans as well as clean them?
A clean will not mend wear. Where the fan needs repair or replacement, we can do that too, with a fixed quote first.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
It depends on how many hours the kitchen cooks in BESA guidance. Heavy use means at least every 3 months, light use at least every 12, fan included.
What does extract fan cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes. The whole system is cleaned, from the canopy to the discharge, and the fan is a key part of it, so it’s cleaned too.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
