Overview
Extractor fan cleaning in Aldgate EC3, explained
This page prices extractor fan cleaning for Aldgate EC3 specifically: post-war stock, 48% privately rented and 4,914 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and City of London Corporation permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How extractor fan cleaning works in Aldgate
Five steps, the same on every EC3 job, so you know what happens before you commit. New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, as the Aldgate stock goes, where 37% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Airflow test first
We measure the pull before we start so the improvement is a fact, not a feeling.
Step 2
Filters out
Mesh and baffle filters into the heated tank; charcoal cartridges checked for age.
Step 3
Canopy and impeller
Degreased by hand, the impeller cleaned blade by blade because that is where the noise comes from.
Step 4
Duct check
The accessible run is cleared and the damper checked for the flap that has been stuck shut for years.
Step 5
Test and report
Rebuilt, retested and photographed, with a note if we found anything a landlord should know about.
Why choose us
Why Aldgate customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Aldgate wall.
Booked around your day
Next-day availability across London, with commercial work scheduled overnight or on closing days. Aldgate (Circle, Metropolitan) is the nearest station, so a EC3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Aldgate walls, not generic walls
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — and with 51% one-person households in Aldgate, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in EC3, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC3 neighbourhood.
Insured and documented
Domestic work runs under £5m public liability; commercial canopies are cleaned to the TR19 grease standard with a certificate your insurer will accept.
Fixed prices
Extractor fan cleaning prices in Aldgate
Fixed prices for EC3 and the rest of City of London. Access sets the price. A pull-out hood at head height is quick; an island canopy over a hob island needs a platform and two people.
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cooker hood and grease filters | £45 | 45 min | Mesh and baffle filters degreased in the tank, canopy stripped by hand — the fastest fire-risk reduction in a kitchen. |
| Integrated or telescopic hood | £65 | 1–1.5 hrs | The unit has to be unclipped from the cabinetry before the housing behind it can be reached. |
| Island or chimney extractor | £85 | 1.5 hrs | Worked at height from a platform with the hob protected underneath, and the chimney section removed to reach the motor. |
| Bathroom or utility inline fan | £40 | 30–45 min | Grille, impeller and the first run of duct cleared of the lint that causes condensation complaints in London flats. |
| Commercial kitchen canopy (per metre) | £90 | 2 hrs+ | Cleaned to TR19 grease standard with before-and-after photographs for your insurer and EHO file. |

48% of households rent privately and 37% own, which is why extractor fan cleaning demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
