Extract fan repair in Haslingbourne, done properly
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a clear explanation of what was done. Common call-outs are for an extract that vibrates through the ductwork and a fan worn beyond sensible repair, across fan motors, fan housings and bearings.
Somewhere as small as Haslingbourne, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Haslingbourne: your questions answered
Do you work in villages like Haslingbourne?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Haslingbourne is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you come to Haslingbourne after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Haslingbourne needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so the site can carry on as normal.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
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 arrange both.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
Yes. A replacement is matched to the system it’s going into, and you get a fixed quote first.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
What makes a kitchen extract fan rattle or whine?
Noise typically comes from grease build-up, bearings, belts or loose fixings. Each sounds a little different and we find the exact cause on site.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Keep the area around the fan controls clear
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and the quieter it runs.
A 3, 6 or 12-monthly cleaning plan brings us back at set intervals, which means the fan is seen regularly and wear is caught earlier.
Signs you need extract fan repair in Haslingbourne
When filters clog and ducts fill with grease, the fan has to strain. An overworked motor overheats and may cut out or fail.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A dead fan motor
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- An old fan that needs replacing
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Petworth Cof E Primary School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.

How the job changes from site to site
Direct-drive fans
Many kitchen extracts use direct-drive fans. When the motor fails, replacing the whole fan unit can make more sense than repairing it, and we will explain why.
Impellers and housings
The fan housing collects grease too. We check both and cleaning may be part of the fix.
Leave it or put it right?
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What else we do in Haslingbourne
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
