Extract fan cleaning in Vernham Street, done properly
The fan is cleaned as part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, especially when it has started to vibrate or sound rough. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. Typical jobs include hot, greasy smells near the fan and vibration from an unbalanced impeller, on fan housings, axial fans and discharge points.
In a village or hamlet like Vernham Street, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Extract fan cleaning around Vernham Street
Kitchens in Vernham Street get their food hygiene inspections from Test Valley council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Vernham Street. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

How the visit works
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. On site, the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Somewhere as small as Vernham Street, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Advice
What affects the quote in Vernham Street
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition of the system
- The times the site is available
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Why act early in Vernham Street
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. A planned visit to Vernham Street is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

Your questions about extract fan cleaning in Vernham Street
Who is the fire and rescue service for Vernham Street?
Vernham Street is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Do you work overnight in Vernham Street?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Often it’s grease on the impeller. Uneven build-up on the blades throws the fan off balance, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.
What does extract fan cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote and we will usually reply within one working day.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
Daily cooking hours set the minimum, under BESA guidance. At the extremes, that’s 3-monthly for heavy use and 12-monthly for light use, fan included.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Honest limits
Extract fan cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- A fan that is too small for the system (a design question)
- An impeller that’s bent or split
- Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.
What the work covers

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Vernham Street
Poor filters mean a greasier fan. When filters don’t seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Less air being pulled from the kitchen
- A motor area thick with grease
- Fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
For schools such as Vernham Dean Gillum's Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
