How we handle extract fan repair in Loxhill
The extract fan is what pulls smoke, heat and steam out of the kitchen. 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 an extract fan that has stopped working and a fan that whines, hums or grinds, we can help, from belts and pulleys, bearings and fan motors onwards.
In a small place like Loxhill, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, 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.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Loxhill
Who inspects food businesses in Loxhill?
In Loxhill, it’s Waverley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.

Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
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.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.
How the job changes from site to site
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. There are no belts, so faults tend to be in the motor, bearings or impeller.
Fan controls
Speed controllers and isolators sit between the supply and the fan. A control fault can leave the fan dead or stuck at one speed.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- What state the system is in
- Any permits to work or inductions
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Problems your staff have spotted
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We usually come back within one working day.
When to call us in Loxhill
Some grease always slips past the filters and reaches the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, and an unbalanced impeller shakes and starts to vibrate and rattle.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A dead fan motor
- A fan shaking on its mountings
Hall kitchens near Church of St Peter, or anywhere around Loxhill, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- When the next visit should be, and why
- If they look at the system before pricing
Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine right away
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. We explain the fault and the fix along with anything else that needs watching.
Clogged filters make the fan strain. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and helps prevent overheating.
