How we handle extract fan repair in Hampton
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. A noisy fan might need cleaning, new bearings or a new belt, while a fan that will not start may have a motor or control fault. We explain the problem, and what it will take, before any work starts. If you have weak extraction and a smoky kitchen and a fan that keeps cutting out, we can help, from fan housings, roof and wall fans and kitchen extract fans onwards.
Replacing a fan in a London building often means working at height or in a tight plant space, with parking and lifting to arrange in Hampton. Work can be done after service, so the kitchen loses as little time as possible.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When a fan fails in Hampton
Food Standards Agency records list about 65 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 22 takeaways and sandwich shops across Hampton and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. We ask about access first for a London fan job, because roofs and basements need planning. In Hampton, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Richmond-Upon-Thames council. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near All Saints' Hampton or elsewhere in Hampton, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up. For a takeaway near Hampton station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7.

Do you need extract fan repair in Hampton?
When filters clog and ducts fill with grease, the fan has to strain. A motor that strains runs hot, trips out or eventually burns out.
What we are most often called out for:
- An overheating extract motor
- A dead fan motor
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- Poor airflow at the canopy
For school kitchens, at schools like Hampton Infant School and Nursery for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is included
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Proof of insurance
- What hours they’ll be on site
What happens if it’s left?
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. That reduces extraction without fixing anything while the underlying wear continues. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. It’s better booked as a planned job in Hampton than handled as an emergency.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Why us?
- We are fully insured
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
- A written report with pictures after each visit

Hampton: your questions answered
Who inspects food businesses in Hampton?
The local authority for Hampton is Richmond-Upon-Thames council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Hampton?
Day or night, a failed fan in Hampton 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.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
Will you fit a new fan if ours cannot be repaired?
Yes, when repair does not make sense. The replacement has to suit the ductwork and the cooking so we confirm that first.
Who is the responsible person?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
What about areas you cannot get to?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What the work involves, part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
An external fan’s rattle can be heard outside. Loose fixings and worn mounts are often the cause.
Fan controls
Controls are checked as well as the fan itself since the motor is not always to blame.
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
What affects the quote in Hampton
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

When it’s something else
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan repair will not do:
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think before booking.
