Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Canada
Grease is hard on extract fans. A coated impeller spins unevenly and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. That is why we check the grease whenever we work on a fan, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. If you are dealing with a fan that whines, hums or grinds and a fan that won’t start at all, we can help, from fan housings, kitchen extract fans and bearings onwards.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. The less grease that reaches the fan, the longer its parts last and the quieter it runs.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. A clean impeller stays in balance and that means less wear.
When a fan fails in Canada
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Canada. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. In Canada, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Test Valley council. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. Getting the fan running again is the priority.
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Wellow School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term. Fan failures around Canada don’t keep office hours, and neither does our emergency line.
Canada is about 5 miles north-west of Totton, in Hampshire. If you need extract fan repair in Canada, please call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for a fixed quote. Our area covers London and the South East, including Canada. Across Hampshire, we cover 683 places, and Canada is one of them. Our Southampton page covers sites nearby (9 miles or so).
Work in SO51 is surveyed, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Close by, we work in West Wellow (1 mile north), Blackhill (1 mile east), East Wellow (1 mile east), Newbridge (2 miles south) and Plaitford Green (2 miles north). Larger places within reach include Winchester (14 miles north-east), Eastleigh (11 miles east), Totton (5 miles south-east), Chandler's Ford (9 miles east), Hedge End (13 miles east) and Lymington (14 miles south).
What’s near Canada
Typical jobs here are in premises near Rockingham Arms, among other places. The closest station to Canada is Romsey station, roughly 4.6 miles north-east of the centre. A little further out are Tatchbury Mount Hospital (3.5 miles south-east). Open spaces near Canada include Copythorne Common.
Why it’s worth doing now in Canada
A noisy fan rarely fixes itself. Bearings that are left to wear can fail suddenly and the fan may stop when you are busiest. A repair booked now is simpler than an emergency later. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.

What affects the quote in Canada
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Problems your staff have spotted
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
What else we do in Canada
Canada: your questions answered
What if my kitchen extract fan stops in Canada at night?
Extract fan emergencies in Canada are covered around the clock. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we will talk through the fault and access. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Which environmental health team covers Canada?
That’s Test Valley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Canada. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
We look at repairing it first. Where the motor has burnt out or the fan is worn out, replacing it can be the better answer, and we will explain why.
How much time does a fan repair need?
Most fan jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault including running the fan afterwards. We’ll fit it around the kitchen’s hours wherever we can.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not typically. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so the site can carry on as normal.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
We can’t price it without knowing the fault. After we’ve checked the fan, we give you a fixed price for whichever option you choose.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. Somewhere like Canada, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Move anything stored near the system
Get a fixed quote
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
Different parts, different methods
Motors and bearings
Rumbling and grinding usually come from the bearings. We find out whether the bearings or the motor is at fault before recommending a fix.
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. There are no belts, so faults tend to be in the motor, bearings or impeller.
