What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Burlow knowing what to expect.
- 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.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Advice
About our extract fan repair in Burlow
Kitchens in Burlow call us about extract fans and motors that are noisy, slow or dead, we diagnose the fault and send you a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. For a fan that fails during service, there’s a 24/7 emergency callout. Typical jobs include an extract fan that has stopped working and a humming noise from the fan motor, on roof and wall fans, kitchen extract fans and belts and pulleys.
Somewhere as small as Burlow, 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.
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.

How the job changes from site to site
Belt-driven fans
Belt-driven fans have a motor that turns the impeller through belts and pulleys. Belts wear, stretch and slip, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. How easy the fan is to reach shapes the job and we plan around it.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What extract fan repair looks like in Burlow
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Burlow. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. Burlow, about 42 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Environmental health officers from Wealden council inspect food businesses in Burlow. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That is one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
Hall kitchens near Christ Church, or anywhere around Burlow, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.

Who inspects food businesses in Burlow?
In Burlow, it’s Wealden council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
Yes. A replacement is matched to the system it’s going into with a fixed price agreed before we start.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
How long will the fan be out of action?
Typically, a fan repair takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Where parts need ordering, we will explain the timescale.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a dated report with pictures, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
