What extract fan repair looks like in Eddington
There are about 11 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 4 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Eddington, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Environmental health officers from West Berkshire council inspect food businesses in Eddington. 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.
School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Hungerford Primary School, fix a failing fan before term starts. For kitchens close to Hungerford station, a fan that stops mid-service needs fixing fast, and our emergency line runs 24/7.

About our extract fan repair in Eddington
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a clear explanation of what was done. The work covers belts and pulleys, fan motors and kitchen extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are poor airflow at the canopy and a failed fan that needs a replacement.
In a village or hamlet like Eddington, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
We have 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.

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
What we’re called out for in Eddington
Fans everywhere, Eddington included, live in a hard environment: heat, grease, steam and long running hours. Condensation can corrode parts and eventually any fan simply wears out.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A fan that will not start at all
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Hungerford Methodist Church, or anywhere in Eddington, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.
What your quote should include
- Whether a survey comes first
- Proof of insurance
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
Eddington: your questions answered
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Eddington?
Day or night, a failed fan in Eddington can be reported on our emergency line. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we will talk through the fault and access. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.
Can you come to Eddington after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Eddington can fit around your hours. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. We need the work area to ourselves while we are on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
It depends on the fault, but as a guide it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. We will give you a better idea once we’ve diagnosed it.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
What we do, step by step
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Somewhere like Eddington, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

How we price extract fan repair
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- A single visit or a regular plan
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.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any previous report or certificate
Want a quote for extract fan repair? Please call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before anything is booked.
Why it’s worth doing now in Eddington
A fan that’s running slowly is not clearing the kitchen properly. Staff work in hotter, steamier air, and more grease settles where it shouldn’t. Somewhere as small as Eddington, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.
What you get with us
- In business since 2009
