Extract fan repair across Earlswood

What we do, step by step

Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. For a site near Earlswood, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.

  1. First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
  2. With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
  3. The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
  4. We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
  5. We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Ask for a quote

We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Earlswood

Working on a fan in Earlswood means switching the extract off first, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. We can work in the evening, overnight or at the weekend and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you are cooking. Typical jobs include an overheating extract motor and a belt-driven fan that squeals, across bearings, kitchen extract fans and roof and wall fans.

Kitchens around a smaller place like Earlswood often have fans fitted to a wall or roof years ago. An older fan that fails may be better replaced than repaired.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Between visits

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:

  • Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
  • Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
  • Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
  • Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise

Grease on the fan normally means grease in the duct as well. We can book a TR19® clean of the whole extract, with a certificate and photo report.

A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings, so it’s worth acting early.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

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.

Why act early in Earlswood

Wherever the kitchen is, Earlswood 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. Around Earlswood, a kitchen or building out of action is missed straight away.

What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

What affects the quote in Earlswood

We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The size of the system
  • Travel, parking and unloading
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Asking for a quote

Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:

  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see

For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Earlswood

Can the work in Earlswood be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Earlswood doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Earlswood?

That is Reigate and Banstead council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Earlswood. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.

How much notice do you need?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

Do we lose a day’s trading?

Not usually. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.

What should go in our maintenance log?

Each report and certificate we give you, kept together in your maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.

Extract fan repair around Earlswood

Look up Earlswood on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 45 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 21 takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Earlswood. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. At about 19 miles from central London, Earlswood sits well inside the area we cover. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. It’s Reigate and Banstead council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Earlswood. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.

For school kitchens, at schools like St John's Primary School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time. If you run a café or takeaway near Earlswood (Surrey) station, a failed fan in the middle of service is exactly what our 24/7 emergency line is for.

What a clean won’t put right

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
  • Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
  • Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking

If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.

What the work covers

  • Bearings
  • Belts and pulleys
  • Fan motors
  • Roof and wall fans
  • Kitchen extract fans
  • Fan housings

For landlords and multi-site operators

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.

Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
