Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Barns Green
If an extract fan in Barns Green is struggling or has stopped, we diagnose the fault and send you a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. For a fan that fails during service, there’s a 24/7 emergency callout. The work covers belts and pulleys, fan motors and fan housings, and common reasons people get in touch are a belt-driven fan that squeals and an extract fan that has stopped working.
In a small place like Barns Green, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Barns Green
Can you work in Barns Green outside opening hours?

Which council inspects kitchens in Barns Green?
Food hygiene inspections in Barns Green are carried out by Horsham council. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Is Barns Green in your area?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Barns Green included.

Do you need extract fan repair in Barns Green?
Not every problem is mechanical. Speed controllers, isolators and wiring can all fail, and a fan that won’t start is not always a dead motor.
Look out for any of the following:
- A motor that trips out or overheats
- A fan rattling in its housing
- An old fan that needs replacing
- Poor airflow at the canopy
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Barns Green Primary School, rather than mid-term.

What affects the quote in Barns Green
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
- The scale of the work
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
How it works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. For a village or hamlet like Barns Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
Related advice
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. The fan is completed on a return visit at a time that suits your service.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, so the fan is looked at as part of each visit and wear is caught earlier.
