Overview
Extractor fan cleaning in Purley CR8, explained
Extractor fan cleaning in Purley CR8 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Croydon, most of them inter-war. 7,502 households sit inside this CR8 patch, 44% of them flats, so we quote on access near Purley Rotary Field rather than a London average.
How it works
How extractor fan cleaning works in Purley
Five steps, the same on every CR8 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings on these streets — which is why London Borough of Croydon kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded 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 Purley customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Purley wall.
Crew sized to the job
One technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen. Steep hill roads with sharp turns; driveways on most residential streets.
Booked around your day
Next-day availability across London, with commercial work scheduled overnight or on closing days. Purley (Southern) is the nearest station, so a CR8 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Purley walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in CR8, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, measured on the walk in from Purley (Southern) rather than assumed from a map in CR8, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Purley gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
Fixed prices
Extractor fan cleaning prices in Purley
Fixed prices for CR8 and the rest of Croydon. 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. |

Purley substrates run to solid London stock brick in CR8, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, measured on the walk in from Purley (Southern) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Purley gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the mistake that costs a CR8 customer twice.
A downland town at the foot of the Brighton Road hills, with big detached houses above. That character decides the practical detail of extractor fan cleaning here far more than the borough boundary does. Purley is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Steep hill roads with sharp turns; driveways on most residential streets. Nearest station is Purley (Southern), and one technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen.
