What the work involves, part by part
Fan housings and motors
The housing around the impeller catches grease flung off the blades. We clean it along with the blades.
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.
Extract fan cleaning in Weston
The extract fan is the heart of the system: it pulls air from the canopy, through the duct and out of the building. Grease that gets past everything else ends up on its blades and housing and we clean it off. Common call-outs are for a heavily greased fan housing and less air being pulled from the kitchen, across axial fans, in-line fans and discharge points.
In a small place like Weston, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Weston
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- How easy every part is to reach
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The times the site is available
- Where the site is and how we reach it
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will explain what it covers.

Keeping the system healthy
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Make sure the fan is included each time
The photo report shows the fan before and after cleaning. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Clean, well-seated filters are the fan’s first protection, and replace any that are damaged.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Weston
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 6 pubs and bars in Weston and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. In Weston, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from East Hampshire 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 Weston. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
A hospital like Petersfield Community Hospital, about 1.2 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Weston (Uppark is about 4 miles south-east), fitting access panels needs care. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Buriton Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Weston is about 1 mile south-west of Petersfield, in Hampshire. We provide extract fan cleaning for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Weston and the rest of Hampshire. 683 places in Hampshire are on our list, large and small. Portsmouth is in our area too, about 14 miles from Weston.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Weston run smoothly.
- The fan is found and its type, access and isolation checked.
- It’s isolated so it cannot run while we work.
- Grease is scraped off the impeller blades and casing.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run, checked and photographed for the report.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Weston
Without a working extract fan, a kitchen cannot cook safely. Grease is often where fan trouble begins, so cleaning the fan helps keep it working. We also offer a 24/7 emergency callout if the worst happens. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
