Why it’s worth doing now in Ewshot
An overloaded motor is under constant strain. That shortens its life and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Catching it early keeps the repair small. In a place like Ewshot, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What you get with us
- We diagnose before we treat
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009

About our extract fan repair in Ewshot
We treat a failing fan much like a patient: we hear the symptoms, find the cause and put it right. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a plain account of what we found. The work covers kitchen extract fans, belts and pulleys and bearings, and the jobs we see most are poor airflow at the canopy and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork.
In a small place like Ewshot, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Honest limits
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
- Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Fan housings
- Kitchen extract fans
- Roof and wall fans
- Bearings
- Fan motors
- Belts and pulleys
Different parts, different methods
Impellers and housings
A damaged or corroded impeller can’t simply be cleaned. It may need replacing, or the fan may need replacing as a whole.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans are often mounted on roofs or external walls. Access affects how long a repair takes and we plan around it.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Ewshot questions
What if my kitchen extract fan stops in Ewshot at night?
We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and Ewshot is part of our area. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Do you work overnight in Ewshot?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Ewshot needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
How much time does a fan repair need?
Typically, a fan repair takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Where parts need ordering, we’ll explain the timescale.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
Common causes are grease on the impeller, worn bearings, slipping belts and loose mountings. Rattles, whines and grinding point to different faults and we find the exact cause on site.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you’re fixing the fan?
Doing both together is often sensible. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Common problems we fix in Ewshot
Kitchen extract fans in Ewshot face the same conditions as anywhere else: heat, grease, steam and long running hours. Moisture can rust housings and fixings and eventually any fan simply wears out.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A dead fan motor
If you manage a school such as St Nicholas' School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. In a small place like Ewshot, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
- With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
