Wisley extract fan cleaning
Looking for extract fan cleaning in Wisley? We diagnose first, fix the price and book the work around your hours, then sign off with a report and photos.
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- A fan that has never been cleaned
What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. For a village or hamlet like Wisley, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- Power to the fan is isolated before anyone touches it.
- Grease is scraped from the impeller blades and the inside of the housing.
- We degrease the fan and housing, taking care around the motor.
- It’s closed up, run and checked, and pictures go into your report.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Clear the space around the work
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. 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.

Extract fan cleaning in Wisley
Not all extract fans are the same: fans on the roof, fans built into the duct run, and fans on an outside wall. Each is isolated and opened in its own way and the survey shows us how to reach it. The work covers centrifugal fans, roof-mounted fans and in-line fans, and people most often call us about rough running from the extract fan and less air being pulled from the kitchen.
For a kitchen in or near Wisley, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Signs you need extract fan cleaning in Wisley
A greasy fan in Wisley is fuel at the end of the duct. A fire in the duct can reach the fan and the grease around it, and a hot, struggling motor doesn’t help.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A motor area thick with grease
Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Mary's CofE Controlled Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Questions to ask before you book
- What paperwork you get at the end
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Multi-site and managed buildings
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Extract fan cleaning around Wisley
The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses across Wisley and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Wisley sits within the area of 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. In Wisley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Guildford council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Woking Community Hospital (about 3.5 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Byfleet Manor is about 0.8 miles north-east), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.

Around Wisley

Open spaces near Wisley include Papercourt Marshes and Boldermere Lake.
How the job changes from site to site
Impellers and blades
The impeller is the spinning part that moves the air, and grease builds up on them unevenly. An uneven coating throws it off balance, so it’s cleaned carefully blade by blade.
Roof-mounted fans
Grease can escape from a roof fan onto the surrounding surface, so the outlet area is checked too. Heavy staining is noted on the report.

What a clean will not put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Questions from Wisley
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Wisley during the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Food Standards Agency records list about 4 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Wisley. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Can you get to a site in Wisley?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Wisley is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
How long does extract fan cleaning take?
One easily reached fan is quick, but hard-to-reach fans take more time. We plan it out of hours.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
How often should the extract fan be cleaned?
With the whole system, at intervals set by BESA guidance: from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use. A noisy or heavily coated fan may need it sooner.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. Anything that can’t be reached is recorded, so you always know what was cleaned.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Is it safe to clean the fan while the kitchen is open?
With the fan isolated, the extract is not running. That’s why fan cleans are done out of hours, and the kitchen is ready when we leave.
What happens if it’s left?
An unbalanced fan gets worse, not better. It can wear the bearings and lead to failure and a kitchen cannot cook safely without extraction. A planned clean beats an emergency. A planned visit to Wisley is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Fixed quotes for extract fan cleaning in Wisley
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Parking and loading at the site
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
