How we price extract fan repair
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The number of sites or systems
- What state the system is in
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
About our extract fan repair in Hollingrove
Grease is hard on extract fans. A coated impeller spins unevenly and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. So when we repair extract fan, we look at the grease too and can arrange a TR19® clean of the whole system at the same time. If you’re dealing with a fan that keeps cutting out and a failed fan that needs a replacement, we can put it right.
A callout to a small place like Hollingrove goes better when we know what we’re looking at: pictures of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What else we do in Hollingrove
What we’re called out for in Hollingrove
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. The fan’s movement then travels into the ductwork and structure, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A fan rattling in its housing
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near The Parish Church of St Thomas A Becket or elsewhere in Hollingrove, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. You will hear what we found and what we did, and anything else we noticed is pointed out.
Noise is usually the first sign of a fan problem. Getting it checked now means a planned repair rather than an emergency during service.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Hollingrove, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Get a fixed quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Honest limits
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
- Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Fan motors

Questions from Hollingrove
Can the work in Hollingrove be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Hollingrove needn’t be disturbed. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Will you come out to Hollingrove?
Yes, Hollingrove is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
Every fan job is priced once we know the fault. Repair, parts or a full replacement all cost differently, so call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll arrange a diagnosis.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it does not spread.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. A single log for each site works best.
Leave it or put it right?
In Hollingrove, 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. Fixing the cause quietens it down before it becomes a nuisance. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Hollingrove rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
