About extract fan repair in Hertfordshire

Every fan job begins with finding the fault. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping belt; a dead fan can point to the motor or its controls. You hear what we’ve found before any work goes ahead. The work covers kitchen extract fans, fan housings and roof and wall fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a fan rattling in its housing and poor airflow at the canopy.

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed.

First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
Once the work is done, we run the fan and check it’s steady and quiet.

What affects the price in Hertfordshire

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

Extract fan repair around Hertfordshire

In Hertfordshire, extract fans range from rooftop units in places such as Watford, Hemel Hempstead and Stevenage to wall-mounted fans on village kitchens. Belts, bearings and motors all wear in the end, faster with grease and weather.

We work across London and the South East, and Hertfordshire is part of that area. Each job starts with a survey and a fixed quote.

Watford: A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St Andrew or elsewhere in Watford, can seize between uses. For kitchens close to Watford Junction station, a fan that stops mid-service needs fixing fast, and our emergency line runs 24/7.

What affects the quote in Hertfordshire

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:

What state the system is in
When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
How easy every part is to reach
Where the site is and how we reach it

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

Any previous report or certificate
Any access panels or hatches you can see
Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Where the site is and what kind of site it is

For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will typically have a quote within one working day.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hertfordshire

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When it’s something else

We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:

Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:

Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
Keep the area around the fan controls clear
Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away

Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. The less grease that reaches the fan, the longer its parts last and fewer faults.

The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. Keeping grease off the impeller is one of the simplest ways to protect it and that means less wear.

What the work involves, part by part

Roof and wall-mounted fans

An external fan’s rattle can be heard outside. Loose fixings and worn mounts are often the cause.

Belt-driven fans

With belts and pulleys, there’s more to wear. More parts to inspect, but many faults are straightforward to fix.

FAQs for Hertfordshire

Do you work in Hertfordshire?

Yes. Our technicians work in Hertfordshire, as part of our area across London and the South East.

Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?

A repair deals with the fan, not the grease in the rest of the system. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking, and we can arrange both.

What if our extract fan fails during service?

We provide a 24/7 emergency callout. Until the fan is running, think carefully about cooking without extraction, and we’ll aim to get it going again.

Which sectors do you work in?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.

Will you fit a new fan if ours can’t be repaired?

Yes. Where a fan is beyond repair, we replace it with one suited to the duct and the kitchen, and you get a fixed quote first.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
