How it works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Blacknest.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the system
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Blacknest
If an extract fan in Blacknest is struggling or has stopped, we diagnose the fault and give you a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. When the fan gives up mid-service, our 24/7 emergency line is there. The work covers belts and pulleys, roof and wall fans and fan housings, and people most often call us about a belt-driven fan that squeals and a fan worn beyond sensible repair.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
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.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What affects the quote in Blacknest
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The times the site is available
- The scale of the work
- How easy every part is to reach
- The number of sites or systems
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
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.
Clogged filters make the fan strain. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and protects the motor.
What a clean won’t put right
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.

What happens if it’s left?
A noisy fan rarely fixes itself. Bearings that are left to wear can fail suddenly, and that often happens mid-service. Sorting it while it still runs is far easier to plan. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Blacknest questions
Do you work at weekends in Blacknest?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Blacknest needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you cover Blacknest for emergency fan repairs?
Day or night, a failed fan in Blacknest can be reported on our emergency line. Use 0345 646 2711, our emergency number, at any time. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
We cannot price it without knowing the fault. After we have checked the fan, we give you a fixed price for whichever option you choose.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
