Questions from Curling Tye Green
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Curling Tye Green?
Food hygiene inspections in Curling Tye Green are carried out by Maldon council. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Do you work in villages like Curling Tye Green?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do we need to close the kitchen for fan work?
We isolate the fan for safety. Most kitchens book us out of hours to avoid losing a service.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
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 tell you the reasons.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
Every fan job is priced once we know the fault. A belt and a new fan are very different jobs, so call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will arrange a diagnosis.
Who do we call if the fan stops in the middle of cooking?
Call our 24/7 emergency line. We’ll take the details and get an engineer to you as soon as we can.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Extract fan repair in Curling Tye Green, done properly
We treat a failing fan much like a patient: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. The aim is steady, quiet extraction and a clear explanation of what was done. The work covers fan motors, roof and wall fans and belts and pulleys, and common reasons people get in touch are a failed fan that needs a replacement and a fan that whines, hums or grinds.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. Weather and grease together wear out motors and bearings.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens if it’s left?
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Do you need extract fan repair in Curling Tye Green?
Bearings wear out with heat and long hours. Worn bearings whine, rumble or grind, and if they’re left they can seize.
Clients usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Plume School, rather than mid-term.
Before booking anyone
- Proof of insurance
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Honest limits
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Curling Tye Green
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Curling Tye Green.
- First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- You get our diagnosis and a fixed quote to repair or replace.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Advice
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Keep the area around the fan controls clear
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
Grease on the fan usually means grease in the duct as well. We can book a TR19® clean of the whole extract and you get a TR19 certificate and photo report afterwards.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, which means the fan is seen regularly and problems are spotted sooner.
Extract fan repair around Curling Tye Green
Curling Tye Green is within about 3 miles of the coast. Rust and grease together wear a fan out sooner, and coastal air speeds up the rust. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 9 restaurants, cafés and canteens across Curling Tye Green and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. Environmental health officers from Maldon council inspect food businesses in Curling Tye Green. Ventilation is part of food hygiene law, which expects it to be suitable and sufficient. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near Church of St Michael or elsewhere in Curling Tye Green, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up.
