Different parts, different methods
Motors and bearings
Motors and bearings take the most strain in a kitchen extract fan. Hot, greasy air and long days wear them down.
Direct-drive fans
Many kitchen extracts use direct-drive fans. If the motor has gone, a replacement unit is often the sensible option and we will talk you through it.
Extract fan repair in Kingham, done properly
Working on a fan in Kingham means switching the extract off first, so we plan it around your service. Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you’re cooking. We’re often asked to deal with a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen and a worn or slipping fan belt, across fan motors, bearings and kitchen extract fans.
Somewhere as small as Kingham, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Common questions in Kingham
Do you cover smaller places like Kingham?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Kingham included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Kingham out of hours?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Kingham is within the area we cover. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Details of the make and model help us plan the repair.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
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.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote before any work starts.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
How we price extract fan repair
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
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 any work starts.
Helping us quote
What to send for a quote:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
When to call us in Kingham
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- A worn or slipping fan belt
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Kingham Primary School or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- How VAT is shown on the quote
How it works
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 floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Kingham.
- 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.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
