Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Hampers Green
Wherever your kitchen is in Hampers Green, fan work means the extract has to be isolated, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. We can work in the evening, overnight or at the weekend and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you’re cooking. We are often asked to deal with an extract fan that has stopped working and a motor that trips out or overheats, on roof and wall fans, kitchen extract fans and bearings.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. Weather and grease together wear out motors and bearings.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What the work involves, part by part
Direct-drive fans
Many kitchen extracts use direct-drive fans. If the motor has gone, a replacement unit is often the sensible option and we will talk you through it.
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. We check both, and cleaning can form part of the repair.
Extract fans in Hampers Green
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 10 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Hampers Green. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. We cover Hampers Green, about 41 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. It’s Chichester council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hampers Green. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. Getting the fan running again is the priority.
For school kitchens, at schools like Petworth Cof E Primary School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.

Common problems we fix in Hampers Green
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Hampers Green or anywhere else. Belts on a belt-driven fan stretch and wear, so the fan squeals or turns more slowly.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near The Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Hampers Green, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Questions from Hampers Green
Can you come to Hampers Green after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Hampers Green keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Hampers Green?
We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and Hampers Green is part of our area. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we will talk through the fault and access. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them together and easy to find.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
Once we are done, the extract is back in service. We clear up after ourselves and talk you through what we found.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. A clean impeller stays in balance, so planned cleaning helps the fan last.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. In a small place like Hampers Green, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Clear the space around the work
