Our technicians work in Fleet Marston on extract fan repair. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- A squealing belt on start-up
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
What happens on the day
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Fleet Marston can be planned properly.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that will not start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- Once the work is done, we run the fan and check it’s steady and quiet.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

About our extract fan repair in Fleet Marston
Working on a fan in Fleet Marston 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 a fan that dies mid-service can go straight to our 24/7 line. The work covers belts and pulleys, fan motors and kitchen extract fans, and the jobs we see most are a fan worn beyond sensible repair and vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts.
A callout to a small place like Fleet Marston goes better when we know what we are looking at: photos of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
- Keep the area around the fan controls clear
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
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.
Noise is typically the first sign of a fan problem. Getting it checked now means a planned repair instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.

Questions from Fleet Marston
Will you come out to Fleet Marston?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Fleet Marston is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can the work in Fleet Marston be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Will you fit a new fan if ours cannot be repaired?
Yes. We fit replacement fans as well as repairing old ones and we will talk you through what’s involved.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
What makes a kitchen extract fan rattle or whine?
Noise normally comes from grease build-up, bearings, belts or loose fixings. Each sounds a little different and we find the exact cause on site.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Part by part
Impellers and housings
The impeller does the work of moving air through the system. Grease on it throws it out of balance and cause vibration.
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. With no belts to wear, we look at the motor, bearings and impeller.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.
