Repair and replacement of kitchen extract fans, fan motors and worn fan parts for Broomer's Corner, with a survey first and a report with photos at the end. Call for a fixed quote.
- A dead fan motor
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. We then come back and fit them outside your busiest hours.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures, so it’s worth acting early.
Extract fan repair in Broomer's Corner
Not every failed fan needs replacing. Often a clean, a new belt or new bearings brings it back and we’ll say so. Where the motor has burnt out or the unit is past saving, a replacement suited to the system goes in. Typical jobs include vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, on roof and wall fans, bearings and belts and pulleys.
Somewhere as small as Broomer's Corner, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Somewhere like Broomer's Corner, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Leave it or put it right?
Left alone, vibration spreads its damage. Fixings work loose and joints in the ductwork can be strained, so a small repair can grow into a bigger one. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will talk you through it.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The number of sites or systems
- A single visit or a regular plan
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The site address and the type of premises
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.
Broomer's Corner: your questions answered
Will you come out to Broomer's Corner?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Broomer's Corner included. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work at weekends in Broomer's Corner?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
It can be one of a few things, including bearings, belts, grease and mounts. It’s worth having it diagnosed before it leads to a breakdown.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?
Often it makes sense to do both. A TR19 clean covers the canopy, plenum, ductwork and fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Do you need extract fan repair in Broomer's Corner?
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Broomer's Corner or anywhere else. On belt-driven fans, belts stretch, crack and start to slip and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.
Clients normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- A motor that trips out or overheats
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as William Penn School, rather than mid-term.
Before you book anyone
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Whether VAT is included
- When the next visit should be, and why
- What hours they’ll be on site
What extract fan repair can’t fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.
What the work covers
- Fan motors
- Bearings
- Roof and wall fans
