Extract fan cleaning in West Horsley
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the extract fan, but some fans need cleaning between full cleans, for example when it’s noisy or vibrating. Where only the fan is cleaned, the report says so. If you have thick grease on the impeller and casing and a fan that has never been cleaned, we can put it right, from centrifugal fans, discharge points and axial fans onwards.
In a smaller place like West Horsley, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What affects the quote in West Horsley
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- How big the system is
- What state the system is in
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep each photo report with the maintenance log
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Report grease escaping from the fan
- Don’t turn the fan off mid-service
We take away the grease and dirty water from the fan clean. Wherever the fan is, the area around it is cleaned down.
Make sure the fan is reachable. 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.

Grease, kitchens and West Horsley
The FSA’s data shows about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered in and around West Horsley, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. In West Horsley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Guildford council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Fire safety in West Horsley falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as The Raleigh School or anywhere near West Horsley, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. For kitchens close to Horsley station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in West Horsley, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Managing agents and facilities teams in West Horsley
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
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 pictures.
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
How the job changes from site to site
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, so grease and wear build up together. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
Inline duct fans
Inline fans can be in tight spaces, so we plan how to reach and clean them. Anything out of reach is recorded.
What happens if it’s left?
Cleaning the fan in West Horsley now is a short job: the work takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. Leaving it means more wear, more noise and a bigger clean later. In a smaller place like West Horsley, a site that has to close is felt quickly.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

Do you work in West Horsley?

What’s TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
How long is a fan clean?
A single accessible fan does not take long, but hard-to-reach fans take more time. It’s done while the kitchen is closed.
Is the fan included in a TR19 clean?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. If a fan cannot be reached, the report says so, so the record is accurate.
What paperwork do I get after a fan clean?
A photo report shows the fan before and after. If it’s part of a full TR19 clean, a TR19 certificate is issued too.
What happens on the day
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. For a site near West Horsley, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it can’t run while we work.
- 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.
