What extract fan repair looks like in Fernhurst
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Fernhurst. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. We cover Fernhurst, about 41 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. It’s Chichester council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fernhurst. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
If you manage a school such as Fernhurst Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. If you look after a church or hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St Margaret, or anywhere in Fernhurst, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

How we handle extract fan repair in Fernhurst
Grease is hard on extract fans. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. So when we repair extract fan, we look at the grease too, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. The work covers fan motors, fan housings and roof and wall fans, and the jobs we see most are a failed fan that needs a replacement and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen.
Somewhere as small as Fernhurst, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Fernhurst
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The condition we find in the survey
- How easy every part is to reach
- The scale of the work
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine right away
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know rather than waiting for it to fail.
Regular TR19 cleaning includes the extract fan. A clean impeller stays in balance and that means less wear.

How the job changes from site to site
Fan controls
Speed controllers and isolators sit between the supply and the fan. When they fail, the fan may not start or may run at the wrong speed.
Motors and bearings
Rumbling and grinding usually come from the bearings. We diagnose whether it’s the bearings or the motor itself and then recommend the fix.
Fernhurst questions
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Fernhurst?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Fernhurst is within the area we cover. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Can you get to a site in Fernhurst?
Yes, Fernhurst is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not normally. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How much time does a fan repair need?
A typical repair takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed including running the fan afterwards. We plan the work around your service where possible.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.
How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Fernhurst before we set off.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- You get our diagnosis and a fixed quote to repair or replace.
- 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
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

For landlords and multi-site operators
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs 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.
Leave it or put it right?
Fan noise tends to get worse, not better. Worn bearings can seize without much warning, and that often happens mid-service. A repair booked now is simpler than an emergency later. A fault that closes a site in a village like Fernhurst affects everyone who depends on it.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
