Oxfordshire · Extract fan cleaning
Woodstock extract fan cleaning
Extract fan cleaning for Woodstock, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- Weak extraction at the canopy
- A fan that has never been cleaned
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
Multi-site and managed buildings
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 are happy to quote for all of it.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
How we handle extract fan cleaning in Woodstock
Is the extract fan louder than it used to be, or the airflow weaker? Tell us about it when you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will send you a fixed quote for extract fan cleaning in Woodstock, usually within one working day. Typical jobs include a fan shaking on its mounts and a fan that no longer moves enough air, on in-line fans, fan housings and centrifugal fans.
In a smaller place like Woodstock, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, where the duct may cross a roof void or climb an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

How we price extract fan cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- The scale of the work
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- What state the system is in
- How easy every part is to reach
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any previous report or certificate
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
How the visit works
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 before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Woodstock when you book.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Before we arrive
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area

Why act early in Woodstock
A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. It marks the area around the outlet and leaves more fuel outside, which is one more reason to keep it clean. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

When to call us in Woodstock
A fan collects more grease when the filters let more through. When filters do not seal, grease goes straight through to the fan, so the fan takes far more than it should.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Hot, greasy smells near the fan
- Rough running from the extract fan
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A motor area thick with grease
Blenheim Palace, about 0.8 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Woodstock; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.
What your quote should include
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Whether the figure could change on the day
Common questions in Woodstock
Do you work overnight in Woodstock?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Woodstock can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you get to a site in Woodstock?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
We also repair and replace extract fans. If we find wear or damage, we will explain it and send you a fixed quote.
Can you clean the fan on its own?
Yes, a fan can be cleaned on its own. It’s useful when a fan is noisy or greasy between full cleans, but it doesn’t replace a full TR19 clean.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
We isolate the fan, so the kitchen cannot cook while we work. We work evenings, overnight or weekends, and the kitchen is ready when we leave.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes. A TR19 Grease clean covers everything from canopy to discharge, and the fan is a key part of it, so it’s cleaned too.
What does extract fan cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

What else we do in Woodstock
When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- An impeller that is bent or split
- Grease in the canopy and ductwork
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on in Woodstock
- In-line fans
- Discharge points
- Centrifugal fans
- Roof-mounted fans
- Axial fans
- Fan housings
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Tell us if the extract feels weaker
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Check the report shows the fan was cleaned
- File the fan’s report with your other records
You get before and after photos of the impeller and housing. It lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, along with the recommended next clean date.
Keep the route to the fan clear. 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 Woodstock
Food Standards Agency records include about 6 pubs and bars and about 7 hotels and B&Bs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Woodstock. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Food hygiene inspections in Woodstock are the job of West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Woodstock sits within the area of Oxfordshire 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.
Where a hall near Church of St Mary Magdalene, or anywhere in Woodstock, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Woodstock Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Woodstock, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
