About our extract fan repair in Jennett's Park
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 can arrange a TR19® clean of the whole system at the same time. Typical jobs include a motor that trips out or overheats and a fan worn beyond sensible repair, across roof and wall fans, kitchen extract fans and fan motors.
In a smaller place like Jennett's Park, a failed extract fan means a closed kitchen, and a closed kitchen loses trade. Our 24/7 emergency line is there for exactly that.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

FAQs for Jennett's Park
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Jennett's Park?
Kitchens in Jennett's Park are inspected by Bracknell Forest council’s environmental health officers. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.
Will you come out to Jennett's Park?
Yes. Jennett's Park is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
Yes, when repair doesn’t make sense. The replacement has to suit the ductwork and the cooking before recommending a unit.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote so there are no surprises.
How much time does a fan repair need?
That depends on what’s wrong, but most jobs take part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. You’ll know more once we have found the fault.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
We look at repairing it first. Where the motor has burnt out or the fan is worn out, replacing it can be the better answer, and we will explain why.

What extract fan repair cannot fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Extract fans in Jennett's Park
Food Standards Agency records list about 60 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 22 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Jennett's Park, up to about a mile and a half out. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. In Jennett's Park, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Bracknell Forest council. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan. Jennett's Park is about 28 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
If you manage a school such as Harmans Water Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. If you look after a church or hall kitchen near St Paul, or anywhere in Jennett's Park, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

Near you in Jennett's Park

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. For a place like Jennett's Park, we load the van from the survey notes so the work can be done in one visit where possible.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- 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
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Different parts, different methods
Impellers and housings
Where an impeller is bent or corroded, cleaning won’t help. It may be replaced on its own, or with the whole fan.
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. With no belts to wear, we look at the motor, bearings and impeller.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- A few general shots of the system
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
What we are called out for in Jennett's Park
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- A fan that will not start at all
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A fan shaking on its mountings
For a takeaway near Martins Heron station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7.
What your quote should include
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether the price is fixed
- What paperwork you get at the end
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Never run the extract with filters missing
Once the fan is running smoothly, keep the filters clean. The less grease that reaches the fan, the longer its parts last and fewer faults.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings, so it’s worth acting early.
