Why it’s worth doing now in Hill Brow
Left alone, vibration spreads its damage. It loosens fixings, strains duct connections and wears the housing and the eventual repair is larger. In a small place like Hill Brow, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What you get with us
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London

What we’re called out for in Hill Brow
When filters clog and ducts fill with grease, the fan has to strain. A motor that strains runs hot, trips out or eventually burns out.
These are the problems we see most often:
- An old fan that needs replacing
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A fan that will not start at all
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Liss Junior School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.

Hill Brow: your questions answered
Which council inspects kitchens in Hill Brow?
That is Chichester council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hill Brow. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Do you work in villages like Hill Brow?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hill Brow included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
Will you fit a new fan if ours cannot be repaired?
Yes, when repair doesn’t make sense. We check the duct size and the extract the kitchen needs before recommending a unit.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
It depends on the fault. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic and quote a fixed price for the option you choose.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, photos and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
What we do, step by step
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Hill Brow run smoothly.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.

How we price extract fan repair
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- How big the system is
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any previous report or certificate
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Between visits
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Report new noises from the fan early
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and fewer faults.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. A clean impeller stays in balance and that means less wear.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
