Extract fan cleaning in Wivelrod, done properly
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. If you are dealing with a fan shaking on its mounts and a fan that has never been cleaned, we can put it right, from roof-mounted fans, fan housings and in-line fans onwards.
In a small place like Wivelrod, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Never cook with a filter missing
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- Report rattles or humming early
- Leave a clear route to the fan
If the fan needs more than a clean, we’ll say so plainly. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
Run the fan throughout cooking. Air that keeps moving carries vapour out rather than letting it settle, so keeping it running helps keep it clean.
What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
