How we handle extract fan repair in Heckfield Heath
Grease is hard on extract fans. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. That is why we check the grease whenever we work on a fan, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. If you have a motor that trips out or overheats and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork, we can help, from belts and pulleys, kitchen extract fans and bearings onwards.
For a fan repair in or near Heckfield Heath, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: photos of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Why it’s worth doing now in Heckfield Heath
In Heckfield Heath, as elsewhere, an extract fan may well sit outside on a wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before neighbours notice. It’s simpler to plan the work at Heckfield Heath now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

When to call us in Heckfield Heath
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.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A fan rattling in its housing
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Michael or elsewhere in Heckfield Heath, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Heckfield Heath: your questions answered
Is Heckfield Heath within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you work overnight in Heckfield Heath?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Heckfield Heath does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
Yes. 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.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?
Often it makes sense to do both. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
Often, yes. A clean, a new belt or new bearings can bring a fan back and we only recommend replacement when repair doesn’t make sense.

How the job changes from site to site
Direct-drive fans
Direct-drive fans are compact and common in kitchen extracts. When the motor fails, replacing the whole fan unit can make more sense than repairing it, and we will explain why.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans are often mounted on roofs or external walls. How easy the fan is to reach shapes the job, so we ask about it early.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Heckfield Heath
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
