About our extract fan repair in Hampton Poyle
Working on a fan in Hampton Poyle means switching the extract off first, so we plan it around your service. Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you are cooking. If you have a humming noise from the fan motor and an old fan that needs replacing, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Hampton Poyle, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What extract fan repair cannot fix
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Roof and wall fans
- Bearings
- Belts and pulleys
- Fan motors
- Fan housings
- Kitchen extract fans
Multi-site and managed buildings
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hampton Poyle and across Oxfordshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- What state the system is in
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Somewhere as small as Hampton Poyle, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Getting ready for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Get a fixed quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Signs you need extract fan repair in Hampton Poyle
Fixings and anti-vibration mounts work loose or perish over time. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building and that’s a common source of rattles.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A squealing belt on start-up
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Hampton Poyle, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up.
Questions to ask before booking
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether a survey comes first
When a fan fails in Hampton Poyle
There are about 12 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 6 takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hampton Poyle, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. About 55 miles out from central London, Hampton Poyle is part of the South East area we work across. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. In Hampton Poyle, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Cherwell council. 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 Gosford Hill School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Why deal with it now?
An overloaded motor is under constant strain. That shortens its life and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Early attention keeps the cost and disruption down. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Hampton Poyle is calmer for everyone.
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.
Why book with us
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- We’re fully insured

Questions from Hampton Poyle
Do you work in villages like Hampton Poyle?
Yes. Hampton Poyle is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Hampton Poyle?
That’s Cherwell council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hampton Poyle. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Who do we call if the fan stops in the middle of cooking?
There’s a 24/7 emergency and out-of-hours callout. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form at any time if the extract stops and we will arrange a visit.
Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?
A repair deals with the fan, not the grease in the rest of the system. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking and we can plan the two together.
Will the kitchen have to stop cooking while you work?
We isolate the fan for safety. Most kitchens book us out of hours, so service isn’t lost.
What does TR19 mean?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
