Overview
Extractor fan cleaning in Islington N1, explained
Extractor fan cleaning in Islington N1 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Islington, most of them Georgian and early Victorian. 8,725 households sit inside this N1 patch, 81% of them flats, so we quote on access near Islington Green and the Almeida Theatre rather than a London average.
How it works
How extractor fan cleaning works in Islington
Five steps, the same on every N1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block on these streets — measured on the walk in from Highbury & Islington (Victoria, Overground) rather than assumed from a map 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 Islington customers book us
Four things decide whether a N1 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Crew sized to the job
One technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen. Narrow squares with resident bays, listed frontages and basement flats down external steps.
Booked around your day
Next-day availability across London, with commercial work scheduled overnight or on closing days. Highbury & Islington (Victoria, Overground) is the nearest station, so a N1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Islington walls, not generic walls
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, and with 36% one-person households in Islington, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site in N1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Islington gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, where 27% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Fixed prices
Extractor fan cleaning prices in Islington
Fixed prices for N1 and the rest of Islington. 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. |
