Yeading extract fan cleaning
Our technicians work in Yeading on extract fan cleaning. Fixed quotes, work around your opening hours and photo reports as standard.
- Grease escaping from the fan outlet
- A fan coated in grease inside its housing
- A fan that hums, whines or rumbles
How it works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the extract fan cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. In a London area like Yeading, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- We find the fan and check how it’s reached and how it’s isolated.
- The fan is isolated so it cannot start while we work.
- 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
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Ask for a quote
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

How we handle extract fan cleaning in Yeading
Not all extract fans are the same: roof-mounted units, inline fans within the duct, and wall fans. Each is isolated and opened in its own way, and we plan that during the survey. The work covers axial fans, fan housings and roof-mounted fans, and people most often call us about fat spreading onto the roof or wall by the fan and a heavily greased fan housing.
Kitchens in Yeading, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. Grease in a duct like that is a fire risk to the whole building, not just the kitchen, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What else we do in Yeading
Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Why deal with it now?
A fan clean in Yeading doesn’t take long: it takes a few hours where there are several fans or heavy deposits. Leaving it means more wear, more noise and a bigger clean later. Every month a London system goes without attention adds to what has to be done later.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Why us?
- A fixed price before any work starts
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep access to the fan clear
- Note any drop in extraction at the canopy
- Keep records of every fan clean
- Watch for grease marks around the outlet
Where the fan needs repair rather than cleaning, the report says so. Fan repair and replacement are services we offer too, so you have one point of contact.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Wiring faults to the fan
- Grease in the duct and canopy before the fan (those need a full TR19 clean)
- An undersized fan that cannot cope
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Yeading kitchens: local notes
There are about 128 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 64 takeaways across Yeading and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. The fan at the end of each of those extracts collects grease that slows it and wears the motor. London Fire Brigade covers Yeading. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading isn’t affected.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Brookside Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Joseph the Worker & Dovetail Centre or elsewhere in Yeading, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.
Yeading is about 2 miles north-east of Hayes, in Greater London. Across the UB5 area, we cover extract fan cleaning for commercial sites. Yeading is one of 764 places in Greater London where we work for commercial clients. For sites nearby, see our London page (13 miles or so).

Yeading questions
Do you work at weekends in Yeading?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Yeading doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Does London parking affect a job in Yeading?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.
Is the fan isolated during cleaning?
The fan is isolated before we open it, so it can’t run during the clean. That means the extract is off, so we clean while the kitchen is closed.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
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 does not replace a full TR19 clean.
What if the fan needs more than a clean?
Anything beyond cleaning is flagged, with what we found. We can repair or replace it, and there’s a 24/7 emergency callout for breakdowns.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
When to call us in Yeading
A greasy fan in Yeading is fuel at the end of the duct. If grease in the duct catches, the fan and its housing can feed the fire, and a hot, struggling motor does not help.
Look out for any of the following:
- A motor area thick with grease
- Rough running from the extract fan
- Grease stains around the discharge
- Weak extraction at the canopy
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Hayes Cottage Hospital about 1.5 miles south-west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
