Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Noise from an outside fan can carry beyond the kitchen. It’s often down to loose mounts or worn bearings.
Direct-drive fans
An impeller coated in grease vibrates straight into the motor bearings. Cleaning it can cure the noise as long as the bearings are still sound.
About our extract fan repair in Farleigh Wallop

Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you’re cooking. The work covers fan motors, kitchen extract fans and roof and wall fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a knocking noise from the extract fan and a worn or slipping fan belt.
In a village or hamlet like Farleigh Wallop, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Common questions in Farleigh Wallop
Will you come out to Farleigh Wallop?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Farleigh Wallop?
That’s Basingstoke and Deane council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Farleigh Wallop. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
Often, yes. A clean, a new belt or new bearings can bring a fan back, and we’ll always say when repair makes sense.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
As a guide, it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Where parts need ordering, we will explain the timescale.
Will you fit a new fan if ours can’t be repaired?
Yes. If repair is not sensible, we replace the fan. The replacement has to suit the ductwork and the cooking so we confirm that first.
Which records should we keep?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. A single log for each site works best.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

What else we do in Farleigh Wallop
Looking after it afterwards
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. The fan is completed on a return visit outside your busiest hours.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures, so it’s worth acting early.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

What we are called out for in Farleigh Wallop
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- A fan that won’t start at all
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- Poor airflow at the canopy
If you manage a school such as Brighton Hill Community School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
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, and that is where we come in.
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. Somewhere like Farleigh Wallop, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
Getting ready for the visit
