Kent · Extract fan repair and replacement
Clement Street extract fan repair
Our technicians work in Clement Street on extract fan repair and replacement. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- A fan rattling in its housing
The process
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Clement Street and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Getting a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Extract fan repair in Clement Street, done properly
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. A noisy fan might need cleaning, new bearings or a new belt; a dead fan can point to the motor or its controls. We explain the problem, and what it will take, before any work starts. We are often asked to deal with weak extraction and a smoky kitchen and an extract fan that has stopped working, across kitchen extract fans, fan motors and fan housings.
For a fan repair in or near Clement Street, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Why deal with it now?
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. It hides the symptom and weakens the extract while the underlying wear continues. A proper diagnosis in Clement Street gets to the real cause. A fault that closes a site in a village like Clement Street affects everyone who depends on it.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

What a clean will not put right
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Roof and wall fans
- Belts and pulleys

For landlords and multi-site operators
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.

Who inspects food businesses in Clement Street?
Food hygiene inspections in Clement Street are carried out by Dartford council. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
Typically, a fan repair takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. Where parts need ordering, we’ll explain the timescale.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

We price each job after finding the cause. Repair, parts or a full replacement all cost differently, so call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll arrange a diagnosis.

What affects the quote in Clement Street
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- What state the system is in
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- A single visit or a regular plan
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any previous report or certificate

Do you need extract fan repair in Clement Street?
Fixings and anti-vibration mounts work loose or perish over time. The fan’s movement then travels into the ductwork and structure and that’s a common source of rattles.
Look out for these warning signs:
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A whining or grinding extract motor
School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Sutton-At-Hone Church of England Primary School, fix a failing fan before term starts.
