Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Extract fan repair in Bough Beech
Across Bough Beech, we deal with fan faults of every kind, from rattling and humming to a fan that has stopped dead. The fault is diagnosed, quoted at a fixed price and put right, or the fan is replaced if repair does not make sense. The work covers bearings, kitchen extract fans and fan housings, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract fan that has stopped working and an overheating extract motor.
Somewhere as small as Bough Beech, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Fan noise tends to get worse, not better. Bearings that are left to wear can fail suddenly and the fan may stop when you’re busiest. Sorting it while it still runs is far easier to plan. A planned visit to Bough Beech is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Questions from Bough Beech
Will you come out to Bough Beech?
Yes. Bough Beech is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you cover Bough Beech for emergency fan repairs?
Extract fan emergencies in Bough Beech are covered around the clock. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you’re fixing the fan?
A fan repair on its own does not include the ductwork. We will tell you what we see and quote for a TR19 clean if it’s needed.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
We can. Replacing a fan is part of our fits and repairs work, and we’ll explain the options.
What affects the quote in Bough Beech
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The number of sites or systems
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Travel, parking and unloading
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans are often mounted on roofs or external walls. How easy the fan is to reach shapes the job and we plan around it.
Direct-drive fans
Direct-drive fans are compact and common in kitchen extracts. When the motor fails, replacing the whole fan unit can make more sense than repairing it and we will talk you through it.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan, and we clear up before we go. For a village or hamlet like Bough Beech, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- 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.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
