Extract fan repair in Broadland Row, done properly
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. The aim is steady, quiet extraction and a plain account of what we found. We’re often asked to deal with an extract fan that has stopped working and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork, on fan housings, bearings and roof and wall fans.
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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Common questions in Broadland Row
Do you work in villages like Broadland Row?
Yes, Broadland Row is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you work in Broadland Row outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Broadland Row does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
The ductwork is a separate job. We’ll tell you what we see, so you can decide whether to book a TR19 clean.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
In many cases, yes. A clean, a new belt or new bearings can bring a fan back and we only recommend replacement when repair doesn’t make sense.
How long will the fan be out of action?
That depends on what’s wrong, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. We will give you a better idea once we have diagnosed it.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. You’ll hear what we found and what we did along with anything else that needs watching.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, so the fan is looked at as part of each visit and wear is caught earlier.

What we are called out for in Broadland Row
Fan bearings do not last for ever, especially in a hot, greasy airstream. As they wear, you hear a whine or a rumble and a seized bearing stops the fan.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A whining or grinding extract motor
Kitchens in Broadland Row can call our 24/7 emergency line whenever an extract fan stops.
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- How VAT is shown on the quote
Part by part
Impellers and housings
The fan housing collects grease too. We check both and cleaning may be part of the fix.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
An external fan’s rattle can be heard outside. It’s often down to loose mounts or worn bearings.

Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
