Overview
Extractor fan cleaning in Fitzrovia W1, explained
This page prices extractor fan cleaning for Fitzrovia W1 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 52% privately rented and 4,257 households in total. Work starts at £45, fixed in writing, with parking and Westminster City Council permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How extractor fan cleaning works in Fitzrovia
Five steps, the same on every W1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In W1, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — and with 53% one-person households in Fitzrovia, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site 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 Fitzrovia customers book us
Four things decide whether a W1 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
Fitzrovia walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms, measured on the walk in from Goodge Street (Northern) rather than assumed from a map in W1, 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, as the Fitzrovia stock goes, which is what a 98% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Fitzrovia actually produces.
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.
Crew sized to the job
One technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen. Weekday CPZ, narrow service roads and buildings with staircase-only access above the second floor.
Fixed prices
Extractor fan cleaning prices in Fitzrovia
Fixed prices for W1 and the rest of Westminster. 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. |

Working in Fitzrovia
Fitzrovia W1 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Fitzrovia — the numbers that actually change a extractor fan cleaning quote.
Fitzrovia W1 is Georgian and early Victorian and renter-heavy: 98% of homes here are flats and 2% are houses, across 4,257 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 52% of Fitzrovia is privately rented and 28% socially rented, a lot of W1 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms, measured on the walk in from Goodge Street (Northern) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in W1. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Fitzrovia stock goes, which is what a 98% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Fitzrovia actually produces is the fault we are called back to undo.
Fitzrovia sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — media offices, university buildings and Georgian terraces around Charlotte Street — which is why a W1 quote is not a Westminster average.
Weekday CPZ, narrow service roads and buildings with staircase-only access above the second floor. Nearest station is Goodge Street (Northern), and one technician for domestic hoods and bathroom fans; two for island canopies and any commercial kitchen.

Common questions
Extractor fan cleaning in Fitzrovia W1 — your questions.
How much does extractor fan cleaning cost in Fitzrovia W1?
Cooker hood and grease filters starts at £45 in Fitzrovia in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 4,257 households on this patch, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. 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 across W1, with this being Westminster City Council territory.
How often should extractor filters be cleaned in Fitzrovia?
Most W1 kitchens near The BT Tower need it every three to six months if the hob is used daily on this side of Westminster, with this being a short walk from Goodge Street (Northern). A grease-loaded filter is the fastest fire-risk reduction we do in Fitzrovia, with 52% of W1 homes being privately rented, and it is a 45-minute job from £45.
Do you clean bathroom extractor fans as well as cooker hoods in Fitzrovia W1?
Yes — inline bathroom and utility fans are cleared of lint and grille dust from £40 in this 98% flats neighbourhood, with 28% social-rented stock nearby — and 20% owner-occupation locally, which is the usual fix for the condensation complaints common in 98% of Fitzrovia's flats.
Can you clean an island or chimney extractor in Westminster?
Yes, worked from a platform with the hob protected below on the streets near The BT Tower. It is the job Westminster City Council landlords ask for most before a new tenancy, alongside the oven and hob clean for Fitzrovia (W1) addresses, with 53% one-person households here.
How quickly can you reach Fitzrovia from your Westminster round?
The BT Tower is the marker we route to on the streets near The BT Tower, with 28% social-rented stock nearby, and weekday CPZ, narrow service roads and buildings with staircase-only access above the second floor. A W1 slot added to an existing Westminster round usually lands the same week rather than the next on Westminster bookings, with 2% of Fitzrovia homes being houses.
Is same-day or evening extractor fan cleaning available in Westminster?
Next-day availability across London, with commercial work scheduled overnight or on closing days on this side of Westminster. Fitzrovia sits close to Goodge Street (Northern), with The BT Tower a few streets away, so we can usually add a W1 job to an existing Westminster round at short notice across W1.
Do you handle difficult access in Fitzrovia?
In Fitzrovia, weekday CPZ, narrow service roads and buildings with staircase-only access above the second floor in this 98% flats neighbourhood. Where a permit or a suspended bay is needed in Westminster City Council it is itemised on the quote before the visit, never added afterwards on Westminster bookings, with 28% social-rented stock nearby. Ask for it in writing before the W1 visit and it is on the job sheet.
