Multi-site and managed buildings
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. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Bounds Green and across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Extract fan repair in Bounds Green, done properly
Our engineers handle all sorts of fan faults in Bounds Green, 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. If you’re dealing with a humming noise from the fan motor and a fan that won’t start at all, we can put it right, from fan motors, roof and wall fans and belts and pulleys onwards.
In London, a kitchen without working extraction can’t keep cooking safely. In Bounds Green, as across London, fans often sit on a roof or deep in a plant space, so access is the first thing we ask about.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What we do, step by step
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If your building in Bounds Green has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- 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.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Move anything stored near the system
How to get a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Advice
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
Grease on the fan normally means grease in the duct as well. We can book a TR19® clean of the whole extract and you get a TR19 certificate and photo report afterwards.
Regular TR19 cleaning includes the extract fan. Keeping grease off the impeller is one of the simplest ways to protect it, so planned cleaning helps the fan last.
Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Bounds Green
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The condition of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Any permits to work or inductions
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.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any previous report or certificate
- A few general shots of the system
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Common questions in Bounds Green
What do you need to know about parking in Bounds Green?
London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. Working overnight, as we often do in London, usually makes it simpler.
Can you work in Bounds Green outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Bounds Green needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote before any work starts.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
A repair deals with the fan, not the grease in the rest of the system. Grease on the fan usually means grease in the ducts and we can plan the two together.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
Extract fan repair in Bounds Green: local notes
Look up Bounds Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 293 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 113 takeaways across Bounds Green and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. A failed fan in a London kitchen normally means a closed kitchen, so access details help us plan the repair. It’s Haringey council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Bounds Green. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
If you manage a school such as Bounds Green Infant School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Barnabas Greek Orthodox Church or elsewhere in Bounds Green, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed. If you run a kitchen close to Bowes Park station and the extract fan is getting noisy, a planned repair after closing beats a breakdown at the rush.

How the job changes from site to site
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Corrosion of housings and fixings is common.
Belt-driven fans
In a belt-driven fan, the motor drives the impeller by belt. Worn belts squeal and slow the fan down, and pulleys and bearings need checking too.
