Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Hanger Hill
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping 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. We are often asked to deal with a fan that won’t start at all and a fan rattling in its housing, across kitchen extract fans, roof and wall fans and belts and pulleys.
Replacing a fan in a London building often means working at height or in a tight plant space, and in Hanger Hill, parking and lifting are part of that. Work can be done after service, so the kitchen loses as little time as possible.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Extract fans in Hanger Hill
Food Standards Agency data counts about 424 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 168 takeaways in and around Hanger Hill, up to about a mile and a half out. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. Kitchens in Hanger Hill get their food hygiene inspections from Ealing council. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off. We ask about access first for a London fan job, because roofs and basements need planning.
If you run a café or takeaway near Acton Main Line station, a failed fan in the middle of service is exactly what our 24/7 emergency line is for. Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Holy Family Catholic Primary School, rather than mid-term.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
Before we leave, the fan is run and checked. You’ll hear what we found and what we did along with anything else that needs watching.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, so the fan is looked at as part of each visit and problems are spotted sooner.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on in Hanger Hill
- Fan motors
- Kitchen extract fans
- Fan housings
- Bearings
- Belts and pulleys
- Roof and wall fans
What we are called out for in Hanger Hill
Some faults are in the controls rather than the fan. A failed speed controller or a wiring fault can stop a fan so we check the controls before blaming the motor.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- An old fan that needs replacing
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A fan shaking on its mountings
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of the Ascension, or anywhere in Hanger Hill, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

How the visit works
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. In a London area like Hanger Hill, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- 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.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Clear the space around the work
How to get a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Hanger Hill: your questions answered
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Hanger Hill?
Kitchens in Hanger Hill are inspected by Ealing council’s environmental health officers. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Can you work in Hanger Hill outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Hanger Hill can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
We do. Where a fan is beyond repair, we replace it with one suited to the duct and the kitchen, and you get a fixed quote first.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Why act early in Hanger Hill
Where the cooking gas supply is interlocked with the extract, a failed fan can stop the kitchen cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast and fixing the fan early avoids a forced shutdown. Shared walls, risers and roofs mean a problem at one London site seldom stays put.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Why us?
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- Full insurance on every job
- Fixed quotes from a survey or pictures
- BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
