Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Crossbush
Across Crossbush, we deal with fan faults of every kind, from a squeal at start-up to a fan that won’t run at all. The fault is diagnosed, quoted at a fixed price and put right, or the fan is replaced if repair does not make sense. The work covers bearings, fan motors and belts and pulleys, and people most often call us about a failed fan that needs a replacement and a fan shaking on its mountings.
In a small place like Crossbush, 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 are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair will not touch
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer.

How we price extract fan repair
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The condition of the system
- The number of sites or systems
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Any permits to work or inductions
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
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.
Common questions in Crossbush
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Crossbush out of hours?
Day or night, a failed fan in Crossbush can be reported on our emergency line. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we will talk through the fault and access. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Who inspects food businesses in Crossbush?
That is Arun council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Crossbush. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
That depends on who controls the premises. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Typically not. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Why it’s worth doing now in Crossbush
Some kitchens run a noisy fan on a lower speed to cut the noise. It hides the symptom and weakens the extract, and the fault carries on developing. A proper diagnosis in Crossbush gets to the real cause. A planned visit to Crossbush is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

What else we do in Crossbush
Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
Once the fan is running smoothly, keep the filters clean. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and fewer faults.
Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures so early attention pays.
How it works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan, and we clear up before we go. For a village or hamlet like Crossbush, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Ask for a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

If you look after a church or hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Mary Magdalen, or anywhere in Crossbush, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.
