What a clean will not put right
Extract fan repair can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What the work involves, part by part
Fan controls
Where the fault is in the building’s electrical supply, an electrician is needed. We’ll tell you if that is what we find and explain what we found.
Belt-driven fans
Squealing at start-up often points to a belt. We check the belt condition, tension and alignment and renew them where necessary.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The size of the system
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

What we are called out for in Great Stambridge
Some grease always slips past the filters and reaches the fan. It builds up on the impeller blades unevenly, so the fan runs out of balance and starts to vibrate and rattle.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of St Mary and All Saints, or anywhere in Great Stambridge, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. We then come back and fit them at a time that suits your service.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and protects the motor.
