How we price extract fan cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- What state the system is in
- How many systems or sites are involved
- How big the system is
- Parking and loading at the site
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 will explain each part.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Extract fan cleaning in Wroxall
If the extract fan in Wroxall has become noisy, weak or greasy? A few details or a photo help when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and you will get a fixed price, normally within one working day. The work covers discharge points, centrifugal fans and roof-mounted fans, and the jobs we see most are a smell of hot grease from the extract and grease around the motor and its mounts.
In a small place like Wroxall, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Wroxall: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Wroxall?
Food hygiene inspections in Wroxall are carried out by Isle of Wight council. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Which fire service covers Wroxall?
Wroxall is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Do you work in Wroxall?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Wroxall.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
Should the extract fan be cleaned as part of TR19?
Yes, the fan is cleaned as part of TR19. Anything that cannot be reached is recorded, so you always know what was cleaned.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Can the fan be cleaned between full cleans?
Yes, we can clean just the fan. That helps when the fan needs attention before the next full clean, but it doesn’t replace a full TR19 clean.
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Check filters are seated before cooking
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Make sure the fan is included each time
When we’ve finished, the fan is reassembled and run. If anything seems wrong, from vibration to wear, we note it, so you can plan any repair.
The fan stays cleaner when less grease gets past the canopy. Keep the grease filters clean, fitted and in place, and replace any that are damaged.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Part by part
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.
Kitchens with long cooking hours
In a busy kitchen, the fan rarely gets a rest, which means grease and wear add up quickly. Cleaning on time helps keep it running.
What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or two for most single fans. Visits to a village like Wroxall are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First we locate the fan and agree how it’s safely isolated.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- The impeller and the housing around it are scraped clean.
- Blades, housing and the area around the motor are degreased with care.
- The fan is put back into service, checked and photographed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear the space around the work

When to call us in Wroxall
Grease on a fan is a fire risk, in Wroxall as anywhere. If grease in the duct catches, the fan and its housing can feed the fire, and a hot, struggling motor does not help.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A fan left out of previous cleans
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
- Thick grease on the impeller and casing
- An extract fan that vibrates or rattles
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Wroxall Primary School or anywhere near Wroxall, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
What your quote should include
- Proof of insurance
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- If they look at the system before pricing
Leave it or put it right?
A fan clean in Wroxall doesn’t take long: the work takes an hour or two for most single fans. Waiting adds vibration, wear and a harder clean. Planning a trip to Wroxall ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

Why us?
- Full insurance on every job
