Extract fan repair in Hartley Wespall, done properly
Wherever your kitchen is in Hartley Wespall, fan work means the extract has to be isolated, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. 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’re dealing with a motor that trips out or overheats and poor airflow at the canopy, we can put it right, from kitchen extract fans, fan motors and belts and pulleys onwards.
For a fan repair in or near Hartley Wespall, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Honest limits
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Kitchen extract fans
- Bearings
- Fan housings
- Fan motors
- Belts and pulleys
- Roof and wall fans
What the work involves, part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
An external fan faces the weather as well as the grease. Rust on fixings and housings is a frequent find.
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. We check both and cleaning may be part of the fix.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hartley Wespall
A struggling motor runs hotter and works harder. Every hour of strain takes its toll and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Catching it early keeps the repair small. In a place like Hartley Wespall, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

When to call us in Hartley Wespall
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Hartley Wespall or anywhere else. Belts on a belt-driven fan stretch and wear and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.
Look out for any of the following:
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A motor that trips out or overheats
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A fan that will not start at all
School kitchens cannot easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Sherfield School, fix a failing fan before term starts.
Questions to ask before you book

Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Hartley Wespall questions

Where does the waste go?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.

How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
