Extract fan repair near Kentsboro

What happens if it’s left?

Vibration does damage beyond the fan. It loosens fixings, strains duct connections and wears the housing, so a small repair can grow into a bigger one. A planned visit to Kentsboro is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

Extract fan repair in Kentsboro

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. We find out why and put it right with a repair or a replacement. If you’re dealing with a fan that won’t start at all and a knocking noise from the extract fan, we can put it right.

Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.

A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for Kentsboro

Do you cover Kentsboro for emergency fan repairs?

We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and Kentsboro is part of our area. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.

Can you come to Kentsboro after we close?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Kentsboro does not have to lose a day’s trading. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.

What makes a kitchen extract fan rattle or whine?

It can be one of a few things, from a worn bearing to a loose fixing. The safest step is a proper diagnosis before the fault gets worse.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 in England and Wales.

Is it worth cleaning the extract while you’re fixing the fan?

A fan repair on its own does not include the ductwork. We will tell you what we see and quote for a TR19 clean if it’s needed.

Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?

We do. 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.

Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?

Repair is always our starting point. Where the motor has burnt out or the fan is worn out, replacing it can be the better answer and we’ll tell you the reasons.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Kentsboro and turn up when the site is quiet.

  1. First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
  2. With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
  3. We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
  4. We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
  5. Once the work is done, we run the fan and check it’s steady and quiet.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Ask for a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.

Advice

How we price extract fan repair

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • How big the system is

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Multi-site and managed buildings

From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

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 are happy to quote for all of it.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Never run the extract with filters missing
  • Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
  • Report new noises from the fan early
  • Keep a record of any trips or stoppages

Once we are done, the extract is back in service. We clear up after ourselves and explain anything you need to know.

Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures, so it’s worth acting early.

What extract fan repair cannot fix

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
  • Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
  • Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself

If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.

What the work covers

  • Belts and pulleys
  • Roof and wall fans
  • Fan motors
  • Kitchen extract fans
  • Bearings
  • Fan housings

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
