How we handle extract fan repair in Bowlhead Green
Diagnosis comes before parts. We look at the motor, the belts or direct drive, the impeller and the mountings, along with the fan’s controls. Then you are given a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. If you are dealing with a motor that trips out or overheats and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Bowlhead Green, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Bowlhead Green
Can you get to a site in Bowlhead Green?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Bowlhead Green is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who inspects food businesses in Bowlhead Green?
That’s Waverley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Bowlhead Green. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Is there help out of hours when the extract fails?
You can reach our emergency line day or night. Cooking without working extraction is not sensible so we will work to get it back in service.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What makes a kitchen extract fan rattle or whine?
It can be one of a few things, from a worn bearing to a loose fixing. The safest step is a proper diagnosis before the fault gets worse.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Corrosion of housings and fixings is common.
Impellers and housings
A damaged or corroded impeller cannot simply be cleaned. It may be replaced on its own, or with the whole fan.
Common problems we fix in Bowlhead Green
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Bowlhead Green or anywhere else. On belt-driven fans, belts stretch, crack and start to slip, so the fan squeals or turns more slowly.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- An overheating extract motor
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A dead fan motor
Fan failures around Bowlhead Green don’t keep office hours, and neither does our emergency line.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
The process
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Bowlhead Green run smoothly.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that will not start.
- With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
- We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
- We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
- We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
