Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Brook Street
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. A noisy fan might need cleaning, new bearings or a new belt; a dead fan can point to the motor or its controls. You hear what we’ve found before any work goes ahead. The work covers bearings, fan housings and belts and pulleys, and common reasons people get in touch are a motor that trips out or overheats and a belt-driven fan that squeals.
Somewhere as small as Brook Street, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Brook Street
Can you come to Brook Street after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Brook Street can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Who inspects food businesses in Brook Street?
Food hygiene inspections in Brook Street are carried out by Mid Sussex council. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, there’s also a certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
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.
Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Brook Street
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Parking and loading at the site
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The site address and the type of premises
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Do you need extract fan repair in Brook Street?
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building and that’s a common source of rattles.
What we are most often called out for:
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- A motor that trips out or overheats
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
For school kitchens, at schools like Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.
Before you book anyone
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Fan motors
- Bearings
- Fan housings
- Kitchen extract fans
- Belts and pulleys
- Roof and wall fans
Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
If the fan had grease on it, the rest of the system almost certainly does too. A full TR19® clean deals with the canopy, ductwork and fan together, with a certificate and photo report.
A fan that is starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Booking a check at this stage keeps it a planned job rather than an emergency during service.
Leave it or put it right?
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

What extract fan repair looks like in Brook Street
Look up Brook Street on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 7 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Brook Street and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Those that cook under a canopy rely on a fan that runs every hour they’re open. Brook Street is about 33 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. Environmental health officers from Mid Sussex council inspect food businesses in Brook Street. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
