Extract fan cleaning in Wexham Street, done properly
If the extract fan in Wexham Street has become noisy, weak or greasy? A few details or a photo help when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and you’ll get a fixed price, normally within one working day. Common call-outs are for burning smells from the fan area and an extract fan with no cleaning record, across in-line fans, centrifugal fans and discharge points.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Wexham Street kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 11 restaurants, cafés and canteens in and around Wexham Street, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of those kitchens with a canopy relies on a fan that gathers grease as it runs. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Wexham Street. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Wexham Street sits within the area of Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Khalsa Secondary Academy or anywhere near Wexham Street, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Wexham Street (Windsor Castle is about 4.3 miles south), fitting access panels needs care.

How the job changes from site to site
Impellers and blades
A clean impeller shows any damage: chips, distortion or wear. Anything we see goes on the report.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
A long-hours kitchen cannot afford a fan failure. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
Why act early in Wexham Street
Grease on a roof fan can also escape outside. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. If the system at a site near Wexham Street fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

When to call us in Wexham Street
Each blade collects a slightly different amount. The difference throws the impeller off balance and puts strain on the bearings. What starts as a grease problem can become a mechanical one.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A fan that no longer moves enough air
- A noisy fan that has got louder over time
- A smell of hot grease from the extract
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
A hospital like Wexham Park Hospital, about 0.8 miles south, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

What extract fan cleaning can’t fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- A fan that’s too small for the system (a design question)
- Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
- Damaged fan blades
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Wexham Street questions
Will you come out to Wexham Street?
Yes, Wexham Street is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Wexham Street?
Kitchens in Wexham Street are inspected by Buckinghamshire council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
Size, access and build-up all affect it. As a guide, it takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
A clean won’t mend wear. We repair and replace extract fans as well, with a fixed quote first.

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What happens on the day
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a couple of hours per fan, depending on its size and the build-up. Somewhere like Wexham Street, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- 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.
- The fan is degreased, taking care around the motor.
- We reassemble, run and photograph the fan.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading

How to get a quote
