From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.

How we handle extract fan repair in Fulwell
Extract fan repair starts with a diagnosis. A noisy fan might need cleaning, new bearings or a new belt; a dead fan can point to the motor or its controls. We explain the problem, and what it will take, before work begins. If you’re dealing with a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen and a fan shaking on its mountings, we can put it right.
In London, getting a new fan to the roof or plant room can take planning, with parking and lifting to arrange in Fulwell. Repairs can be done out of hours so the kitchen keeps trading.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Extract fans in Fulwell
Look up Fulwell on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 190 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 33 sandwich bars and takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Fulwell. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. In London, a fan on a roof or in a basement can take planning to reach, with parking and loading to arrange. Kitchens in Fulwell get their food hygiene inspections from Richmond-Upon-Thames council. Ventilation is part of food hygiene law, which expects it to be suitable and sufficient. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
For a takeaway near Fulwell station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7. Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Stanley Primary School, rather than mid-term. Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near St Michael's or elsewhere in Fulwell, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up.

Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine right away
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
Grease on the fan typically means grease in the duct as well. We can book a TR19® clean of the whole extract, with a certificate and photo report.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings, so it’s worth acting early.

Part by part
Direct-drive fans
Many kitchen extracts use direct-drive fans. When the motor fails, replacing the whole fan unit can make more sense than repairing it, and we’ll explain why.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
An external fan’s rattle can be heard outside. Loose fixings and worn mounts are often the cause.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
How we price extract fan repair
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How big the system is
- A single visit or a regular plan
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Helping us quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Fan housings
- Bearings

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before we start, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Fulwell.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
