What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The condition of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How easy every part is to reach
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
About our extract fan cleaning in West End
A clean fan isn’t a repaired fan. If we find worn bearings, a struggling motor or damage to the impeller, we will tell you and fan repair or replacement is something we also do. You’ll know whether the fan just needed cleaning or something more. If you have a noisy fan that has got louder over time and grease around the motor and its mounts, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like West End starts with a call to agree access and timings, 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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What a clean will not put right

What extract fan cleaning looks like in West End
Food Standards Agency records list about 44 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 9 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around West End, up to about a mile and a half out. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Environmental health officers from Elmbridge council inspect food businesses in West End. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Surrey Fire and Rescue Service covers West End. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like No. 2 New Zealand General Hospital about 2.6 miles north-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Claremont Fan Court School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Church and community hall kitchens, near St George's or anywhere around West End, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes an hour or two for most single fans. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to West End and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We locate the fan and plan how to reach and isolate it.
- We isolate the power before opening the housing.
- We scrape the heavy grease from the blades and housing.
- Blades, housing and surrounds are degreased with care around the electrics.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Part by part
Inline duct fans
Hidden in a ceiling void, an inline fan is easily missed. We find it during the survey and include it in the clean.
Fan housings and motors
We clean around the motor without soaking its electrics, and the fan is isolated throughout. Grease around the motor can make it run hotter, so we clean what we safely can.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Make sure the fan is included each time
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Keep records of every fan clean
When we’ve finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
Keep the route to the fan clear. A fan that can be reached safely is a fan that gets cleaned, whether it’s on a roof, in a ceiling or on a wall.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Which council inspects kitchens in West End?
The local authority for West End is Elmbridge council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Which accreditations do you hold?

How much does extract fan cleaning cost in West End?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you cover West End?
Yes. West End is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.
Why is my extract fan noisy?
Often it’s grease on the impeller. Grease collects unevenly and unbalances the impeller, causing vibration and noise. Cleaning may sort it, but worn bearings or a failing motor need a repair.
