How we handle extract fan repair in Dungeness
Diagnosis comes before parts. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked, along with the fan’s controls. After that, you get a fixed price for what’s needed. The work covers roof and wall fans, bearings and kitchen extract fans, and people most often call us about an overheating extract motor and poor airflow at the canopy.
For a fan repair in or near Dungeness, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: pictures of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Why it’s worth doing now in Dungeness
Wherever the kitchen is, Dungeness included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Fixing the cause quietens it down before neighbours notice. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Why book with us
- We’re fully insured
- A written report with pictures after every visit
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001

When to call us in Dungeness
Bearings wear out with heat and long hours. Worn bearings whine, rumble or grind and a seized bearing stops the fan.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A motor that trips out or overheats
For kitchens in and around Dungeness, our emergency line runs 24/7.

Extract fan repair around Dungeness
Dungeness is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the sea, fans mounted outdoors corrode faster, and corroded fans tend to get noisy before they fail. Kitchens in Dungeness get their food hygiene inspections from Folkestone and Hythe council. Ventilation is part of food hygiene law, which expects it to be suitable and sufficient. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
Belts, bearings, motors and impellers are all checked when we look at a fan around Dungeness.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
Once we are done, the extract is back in service. We clear up after ourselves and talk you through what we found.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. A clean impeller stays in balance and that means less wear.
Common questions in Dungeness
Do you work at weekends in Dungeness?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Dungeness can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Dungeness?
Dungeness is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
It depends on the fault. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic and quote a fixed price for the option you choose.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
How the job changes from site to site
Direct-drive fans
Many kitchen extracts use direct-drive fans. If the motor has gone, a replacement unit is often the sensible option and we’ll talk you through it.
Fan controls
Supply faults are a job for an electrician. If that is the cause, we will say so and explain what we found.
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. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
