Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Brunswick Park
Everything a kitchen extract does depends on the fan. When it starts to rattle, hum or slow down, the kitchen gets hot and smoky very quickly. We find out why and put it right with a repair or a replacement. If you have a motor that trips out or overheats and a squealing belt on start-up, we can help.
London extract fans often sit on rooftops, exposed to the weather as well as the grease, and bearings, belts and motors wear out in the end. Noise and vibration are worth reporting before the fan stops.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

When something else is needed
Extract fan repair can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Most London sites cannot stop for the day, so work in Brunswick Park is typically done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Leave it or put it right?
Weak extraction leaves heat, smoke and fumes in the kitchen. Staff work in hotter, steamier air and grease has more chance to settle on surfaces and in the duct. A booked night’s work in Brunswick Park costs you no trading time; an unplanned closure does.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Brunswick Park
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The number of sites or systems
- The condition we find in the survey
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.
Different parts, different methods
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Rust on fixings and housings is a frequent find.
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Cleaning it can cure the noise, if the bearings haven’t been damaged.
Your questions about extract fan repair in Brunswick Park
What do you need to know about parking in Brunswick Park?
London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. If the building has a loading slot system, we will book into it.
What if my kitchen extract fan stops in Brunswick Park at night?
Extract fan emergencies in Brunswick Park are covered around the clock. Use 0345 646 2711, our emergency number, at any time. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
An unbalanced, greasy impeller vibrates and that’s one of the most common reasons. Bearings, belts and mountings can also be to blame.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a written, dated record with photos of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
Often it makes sense to do both. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Extract fan repair around Brunswick Park
Food Standards Agency data counts about 161 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 65 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Brunswick Park. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. Environmental health officers from Barnet council inspect food businesses in Brunswick Park. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. That is one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan. We ask about access first for a London fan job, because roofs and basements need planning.
School kitchens cannot easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like St Andrew the Apostle Greek Orthodox School, fix a failing fan before term starts. For kitchens close to New Southgate station, a fan that stops mid-service needs fixing fast, and our emergency line runs 24/7. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Oakleigh Community Church or elsewhere in Brunswick Park, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. We explain the fault and the fix, and anything else we noticed is pointed out.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings, so it’s worth acting early.
For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
