How the job changes from site to site
Inline duct fans
Hidden in a ceiling void, an inline fan is easily missed. We find it during the survey and include it in the clean.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
When a busy kitchen’s fan fails, cooking stops. Keeping the fan clean is part of avoiding that, and our 24/7 emergency callout is there if it happens anyway.
About our extract fan cleaning in Wormley
Not all extract fans are the same: roof-mounted units, inline fans within the duct, and wall fans. The way in depends on the type and the survey shows us how to reach it. The work covers axial fans, discharge points and roof-mounted fans, and people most often call us about a fan that hums, whines or rumbles and a smell of hot grease from the extract.
In a village or hamlet like Wormley, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Grease, kitchens and Wormley
Environmental health officers from Waverley council inspect food businesses in Wormley. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Wormley is covered by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Where a hall near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Wormley, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. If you cook for passing trade around Witley station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer. Term dates shape school work: for a school like King Edward's School Witley, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
Wormley is about 8 miles south of Guildford, in Surrey. Whatever kind of site you run in Wormley, extract fan cleaning is something we can help with. We can work out of hours so trading is not interrupted. Across Surrey, we cover 395 places, and Wormley is one of them. For sites nearby, see our Guildford page (8 miles or so).

Around Wormley
Locally, jobs take us to businesses close to Rodborough and Witley CofE Controlled Infant School, among other places. There’s a railway station in Wormley itself: Witley station.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wormley
A greasy fan at the discharge can spread grease onto the roof or wall around it. That stains surfaces and can add to the fire risk outside the building, which is one more reason to keep it clean. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.

- Every job surveyed first
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Report rattles or humming early
- Keep the fan on whenever the range is lit
- Look for grease stains near the discharge
- File the fan’s report with your other records
Once it’s clean, the fan is closed up and run to check it’s working smoothly. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
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.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
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. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- A dirty duct upstream of the fan
- Electrical faults in the fan’s supply or controls (an electrician’s job)
- An undersized fan that can’t cope
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Wormley and turn up when the site is quiet.
- Diagnosis first: we look for grease, noise and vibration.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller is cleaned blade by blade so it runs balanced.
- Housing, outlet and the area around the motor are cleaned.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Move anything stored near the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Related advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
FAQs for Wormley
Can you come to Wormley after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Wormley does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Will you come out to Wormley?
Yes, Wormley is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
That depends on who controls the premises. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
