Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Coulsdon fitters · Fixed written pricesExtractor fan cleaning for Coulsdon (CR5) households — 6,754 of them, 22% in flats. From £45 fixed, one technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen Insured cleaners, filters degreased in the tank, and airflow tested before we leave.
Overview
Extractor fan cleaning in Coulsdon CR5 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Croydon, most of them inter-war. 6,754 households sit inside this CR5 patch, 22% of them flats, so we quote on access near Farthing Downs rather than a London average.
How it works
Step 1
We measure the pull before we start so the improvement is a fact, not a feeling.
Step 2
Mesh and baffle filters into the heated tank; charcoal cartridges checked for age.
Step 3
Degreased by hand, the impeller cleaned blade by blade because that is where the noise comes from.
Step 4
The accessible run is cleared and the damper checked for the flap that has been stuck shut for years.
Step 5
Rebuilt, retested and photographed, with a note if we found anything a landlord should know about.
Why choose us
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — and with 12% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does in CR5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in CR5, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 6,754 households inside the CR5 neighbourhood.
Domestic work runs under £5m public liability; commercial canopies are cleaned to the TR19 grease standard with a certificate your insurer will accept.
One technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen. Steep downland roads, easy driveway parking and a narrow high street.
Next-day availability across London, with commercial work scheduled overnight or on closing days. Coulsdon South (Southern) is the nearest station, so a CR5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Working in Coulsdon
Census 2021 puts Coulsdon at 6,754 households with a median age of 40.6. The inter-war stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 78% houses and 22% flats need different handling in CR5.
12% of households rent privately and 74% own, which is why extractor fan cleaning demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — and with 12% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does behind the plaster in CR5. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in CR5, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 6,754 households inside the CR5 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Coulsdon: downland village on the North Downs edge, with Farthing Downs above the town. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Coulsdon is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Steep downland roads, easy driveway parking and a narrow high street. Nearest station is Coulsdon South (Southern), and one technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen.
