Extract fan repair across Medway: what to expect

Extract fan repair starts with a diagnosis. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping belt, while a fan that won’t start may have a motor or control fault. You hear what we have found before any work goes ahead. We’re often asked to deal with a whining or grinding extract motor and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork, on bearings, roof and wall fans and fan motors.

Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the extract fan repair, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement.

A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.

What you’ll pay

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

What you get with us

Extract fan repair across Medway: local notes

Across Medway, from Gillingham, Chatham and Rochester outwards, kitchens depend on their extract fans to keep cooking. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for when one fails.

Much of our work across London and the South East happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so sites across Medway don’t have to lose a day. Coastal kitchens in Medway often have their busiest months in the summer, so it pays to book work around the busy season.

Gillingham: If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Featherby Junior School or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Holy Trinity Church or elsewhere in Gillingham, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Different parts, different methods

Belt-driven fans

A squeal when the fan starts is a classic belt symptom. We check the belt condition, tension and alignment and renew them where necessary.

Fan controls

We check the controls as part of every diagnosis, because a fan that will not start isn’t always a failed motor.

Keeping the system healthy

Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:

Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
Never run the extract with filters missing
Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed

Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. The fan is completed on a return visit outside your busiest hours.

Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings so early attention pays.

What affects the cost of extract fan repair

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

Working hours and out-of-hours timing
The scale of the work
Where the site is and how we reach it
Whether several sites go on one quote

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Any access panels or hatches you can see
Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

When something else is needed

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Medway

Are you insured?

Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.

What should go in our maintenance log?

Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.

Do we need to close the kitchen for fan work?

We isolate the fan for safety. Most kitchens book us out of hours to avoid losing a service.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

What accreditations do you have?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?

Repairing the fan doesn’t clean the canopy or ducts. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking, and we can arrange both.

Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?

Yes. Replacing a fan is part of our fits and repairs work, and we will explain the options.
