Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Hyde
Everything a kitchen extract does depends on the fan. When it starts to rattle, hum or slow down, the cooking area soon fills with heat and fumes. Our engineers track down the fault and fix it, by repairing the fan or replacing it. The work covers kitchen extract fans, fan housings and roof and wall fans, and common reasons people get in touch are an old fan that needs replacing and vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts.
A callout to a small place like Hyde goes better when we know what we’re looking at: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, 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.

Extract fans in Hyde
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Hyde and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Those that cook under a canopy rely on a fan that runs every hour they’re open. Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Hyde. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of the Holy Ascension, or anywhere in Hyde, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
If parts have to be ordered, we tell you how the kitchen can carry on in the meantime. We then come back and fit them outside your busiest hours.
Noise is normally the first sign of a fan problem. Getting it checked now means a planned repair instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem 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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
How we price extract fan repair
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The size of the system
- What state the system is in
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any previous report or certificate
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Do you need extract fan repair in Hyde?
Fans everywhere, Hyde included, live in a hard environment: hot, greasy, damp air for hours on end. Moisture can rust housings and fixings, and age catches up with every fan in the end.
What we are most often called out for:
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A fan that keeps cutting out
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Hyde Church of England Primary School, rather than mid-term.
What your quote should include
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
How it works
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Hyde.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Ask for a quote
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Related advice
Part by part
Fan controls
Every fan has controls, from a speed controller to an isolator. A control fault can leave the fan dead or stuck at one speed.
Impellers and housings
The impeller does the work of moving air through the system. Grease deposits unbalance it and make it shake.
Why deal with it now?
Vibration does damage beyond the fan. It loosens fixings, strains duct connections and wears the housing and the eventual repair is larger. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
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 you know where you stand.

FAQs for Hyde
Which environmental health team covers Hyde?
In Hyde, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Can you get to a site in Hyde?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hyde included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
Repair is always our starting point. If the fan is past saving, a replacement may be more sensible and we’ll tell you the reasons.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you’re fixing the fan?
Repairing the fan does not clean the canopy or ducts. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking, and we can arrange both.
Which records should we keep?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.
