Do you need extract fan repair in Ellen's Green?
Bearings wear out with heat and long hours. As they wear, you hear a whine or a rumble, and if they’re left they can seize.
What we’re most often called out for:
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
Belts, bearings, motors and impellers are all checked when we look at a fan around Ellen's Green.

Extract fan repair in Ellen's Green
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. A noisy fan might need cleaning, new bearings or a new belt, while a fan that will not start may have a motor or control fault. You hear what we have found before any work goes ahead. If you are dealing with an overheating extract motor and a worn or slipping fan belt, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Ellen's Green, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What a clean will not put right
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Ellen's Green questions
Do you cover Ellen's Green for emergency fan repairs?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Ellen's Green is within the area we cover. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Do you work at weekends in Ellen's Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Ellen's Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?
We can. We fit replacement fans as well as repairing old ones and we’ll talk you through what’s involved.
Are you accredited?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
Which records should we keep?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. A single log for each site works best.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not typically. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
What the work involves, part by part
Belt-driven fans
Belt-driven fans have a motor that turns the impeller through belts and pulleys. Worn belts squeal and slow the fan down, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Corrosion of housings and fixings is common.
What affects the quote in Ellen's Green
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Where the site is and how we reach it
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any previous report or certificate
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
