Extract fan repair in Edenbridge
Working on a fan in Edenbridge means switching the extract off first, so we plan it around your service. 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’re cooking. Common call-outs are for a fan shaking on its mountings and a failed fan that needs a replacement, on bearings, belts and pulleys and fan motors.
For a fan repair near Edenbridge, we plan the journey and bring what the job is likely to need, so pictures of the fan and its rating plate help.
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 staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
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.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. The less grease that reaches the fan, the longer its parts last and the quieter it runs.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures, so it’s worth acting early.
What extract fan repair cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan repair won’t do:
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair will not touch
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

FAQs for Edenbridge
Can you work in Edenbridge outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Edenbridge can fit around your hours. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Edenbridge?
Food hygiene inspections in Edenbridge are carried out by Sevenoaks council. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
An unbalanced, greasy impeller vibrates, which is a common cause of noise. Bearings, belts and mountings can also be to blame.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not usually. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
That depends on what’s wrong, but most jobs take a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. We will give you a better idea once we have diagnosed it.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
Yes. Replacing a fan is part of our fits and repairs work and we’ll talk you through what’s involved.
Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Edenbridge
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

What else we do in Edenbridge
For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Common problems we fix in Edenbridge
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Edenbridge or anywhere else. Belts on a belt-driven fan stretch and wear, so the fan squeals or turns more slowly.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- A worn or slipping fan belt
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Edenbridge Primary School or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How VAT is shown on the quote
How the visit 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 part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. In a place like Edenbridge, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Find the previous report, if there is one
