Extract fan repair in Goddards Green, done properly
Grease and fans don’t mix. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance, which shakes the bearings and mountings. That’s why we check the grease whenever we work on a fan, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. The work covers fan housings, belts and pulleys and fan motors, and common reasons people get in touch are an old fan that needs replacing and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork.
For a fan repair in or near Goddards Green, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: photos of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Goddards Green
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The size of the system
- Where the site is and how we reach it
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Common questions in Goddards Green
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Goddards Green out of hours?
Day or night, a failed fan in Goddards Green can be reported on our emergency line. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we will talk through the fault and access. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.
Can you work in Goddards Green outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Goddards Green needn’t be disturbed. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. We diagnose first and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
Repairing the fan does not clean the canopy or ducts. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking, and we can arrange both.
How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. For a village or hamlet like Goddards Green, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.

Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
- Report new noises from the fan early
Grease on the fan normally means grease in the duct as well. A full TR19® clean deals with the canopy, ductwork and fan together and you get a TR19 certificate and photo report afterwards.
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.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
How the job changes from site to site
Belt-driven fans
In a belt-driven fan, the motor drives the impeller by belt. Belts wear, stretch and slip, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
Motors and bearings
A grinding or rumbling noise often means worn bearings. We diagnose whether it’s the bearings or the motor itself before recommending a fix.
What a clean will not put right
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair will not touch
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.
