Multi-site and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
What we’re called out for in Beckley Furnace
Some faults are in the controls rather than the fan. A failed speed controller or a wiring fault can stop a fan so we check the controls before blaming the motor.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
- A squealing belt on start-up
- A fan rattling in its housing
If a fan fails in Beckley Furnace at night or at a weekend, our emergency line is open.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether VAT is included
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- What paperwork you get at the end
Extract fans in Beckley Furnace
Beckley Furnace, about 48 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. Kitchens in Beckley Furnace get their food hygiene inspections from Rother council. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Brede Primary School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.

Leave it or put it right?
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Even without an interlock, cooking without extraction isn’t sensible and fixing the fan early avoids a forced shutdown. A fault that closes a site in a village like Beckley Furnace affects everyone who depends on it.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans are often mounted on roofs or external walls. Access affects how long a repair takes, so we ask about it early.
Direct-drive fans
Direct-drive fans have the impeller mounted straight on the motor. With no belts to wear, we look at the motor, bearings and impeller.
What a clean won’t put right
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Roof and wall fans
- Bearings
- Fan housings
- Kitchen extract fans

Questions from Beckley Furnace
Will you come out to Beckley Furnace?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Beckley Furnace is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Beckley Furnace?
Day or night, a failed fan in Beckley Furnace can be reported on our emergency line. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. If you can, stop cooking until the fan is checked.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
Noise usually comes from grease build-up, bearings, belts or loose fixings. Rattles, whines and grinding point to different faults, and we diagnose it on site.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
We can’t price it without knowing the fault. After we have checked the fan, we give you a fixed price for the repair or the replacement.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
Often, yes. Many faults are fixed by cleaning the impeller or renewing worn parts, and we will always say when repair makes sense.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
