Extract fan repair in Middleton Stoney, done properly
Kitchens in Middleton Stoney call us about extract fans and motors that are noisy, slow or dead, we diagnose the fault and give you a fixed quote to repair or replace it. For a fan that fails during service, there’s a 24/7 emergency callout. If you have a fan worn beyond sensible repair and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork, we can help.
A callout to a small place like Middleton Stoney goes better when we know what we are looking at: photos of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What happens if it’s left?
Left alone, vibration spreads its damage. It loosens fixings, strains duct connections and wears the housing and the eventual repair is larger. A planned visit to Middleton Stoney is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

What else we do in Middleton Stoney
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
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.
What we do, step by step
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 before work begins, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Middleton Stoney and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Middleton Stoney questions
Do you cover smaller places like Middleton Stoney?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Middleton Stoney is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Middleton Stoney?
We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and Middleton Stoney is part of our area. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we’ll talk through the fault and access. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes, on every job. It’s a dated, written report with photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
Typically, a fan repair takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. If parts have to be ordered, we will tell you how long that’s likely to be.
Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?
A fan repair on its own does not include the ductwork. We’ll point out grease where we find it and quote for a TR19 clean if it’s needed.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
It depends on the fault. After diagnosing, we explain whether it can be repaired and quote a fixed price for the option you choose.
What extract fan repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on in Middleton Stoney
- Kitchen extract fans
- Belts and pulleys
- Fan housings
- Roof and wall fans
- Bearings
- Fan motors
How the job changes from site to site
Motors and bearings
Rumbling and grinding normally come from the bearings. We diagnose whether it’s the bearings or the motor itself before recommending a fix.
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.
Common problems we fix in Middleton Stoney
Blocked filters and greasy ducts make the fan work harder. A motor that strains runs hot, trips out or eventually burns out.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- A dead fan motor
- An old fan that needs replacing
Kitchens in Middleton Stoney can call our 24/7 emergency line whenever an extract fan stops.
