Extract fan repair in Chalkshire, done properly
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: we hear the symptoms, find the cause and put it right. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a plain account of what we found. If you have a squealing belt on start-up and an extract fan that has stopped working, we can help, from fan housings, fan motors and roof and wall fans onwards.
In a small place like Chalkshire, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Why it’s worth doing now in Chalkshire
In Chalkshire, as elsewhere, an extract fan may well sit outside on a wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before neighbours notice. Planning a trip to Chalkshire ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Chalkshire
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. Somewhere as small as Chalkshire, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep the area around the fan controls clear
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
Your kitchen can get back to normal as soon as the fan is running. We leave the area tidy and explain anything you need to know.
Regular TR19 cleaning includes the extract fan. A clean impeller stays in balance, so planned cleaning helps the fan last.
FAQs for Chalkshire
Do you work overnight in Chalkshire?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Chalkshire keeps running as normal. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Chalkshire?
That’s Buckinghamshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Chalkshire. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
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 photos.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
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.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Which records should we keep?
Every certificate and report from each visit, kept together in your maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Is Chalkshire in your area?
Yes. We work in Chalkshire and the rest of Buckinghamshire, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
An external fan faces the weather as well as the grease. Rust on fixings and housings is a frequent find.
Motors and bearings
An overheating motor is a warning sign. The cause might be grease restricting the airflow or the motor may be near the end of its life.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
When a fan fails in Chalkshire
Look up Chalkshire on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 9 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Chalkshire. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Chalkshire. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly. Chalkshire is about 35 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
School kitchens cannot easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like John Colet School, fix a failing fan before term starts. Hall kitchens near Church of St Peter and St Paul, or anywhere around Chalkshire, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.
