- A fan that keeps cutting out
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Brook Green.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Brook Green
If an extract fan in Brook Green is struggling or has stopped, we find the cause and quote a fixed price to repair or replace it. When the fan gives up mid-service, our 24/7 emergency line is there. We’re often asked to deal with a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen and a fan that whines, hums or grinds, on bearings, roof and wall fans and fan housings.
For a London kitchen, a failed extract fan usually means the cooking stops. Fans in Brook Green are often on a roof or in a basement at the end of a long duct run, so access is the first thing we ask about.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Do you need extract fan repair in Brook Green?
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. The fan’s movement then travels into the ductwork and structure, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A squealing belt on start-up
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- An old fan that needs replacing
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Larmenier & Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School, rather than mid-term.

Part by part
Motors and bearings
If the motor runs hot or keeps tripping, something’s wrong. It may be straining against blocked filters or ducts or the motor may be near the end of its life.
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. Both are inspected and cleaning may be part of the fix.
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Report new noises from the fan early
Once the fan is running smoothly, keep the filters clean. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and fewer faults.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, which means the fan is seen regularly and wear is caught earlier.
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Brook Green questions
Can the work in Brook Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Brook Green doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Who inspects food businesses in Brook Green?
Kitchens in Brook Green are inspected by Hammersmith and Fulham council’s environmental health officers. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Are you accredited?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Extract fans in Brook Green
There are about 982 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 142 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Brook Green, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. In Brook Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Hammersmith and Fulham council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly. Lifting a replacement fan onto a London roof can need a loading slot and the building’s agreement.
Hall kitchens near The Parish Church of Saint Mary, or anywhere around Brook Green, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick. If you run a café or takeaway near Kensington Olympia station, a failed fan in the middle of service is exactly what our 24/7 emergency line is for.

Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
