Your questions about extract fan repair in Morden
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Morden out of hours?
Morden is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Ring 0345 646 2711 at any hour and describe the fault. If you can, stop cooking until the fan is checked.
Can the work in Morden be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Morden can fit around your hours. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
How much time does a fan repair need?
Typically, a fan repair takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Where parts need ordering, we will explain the timescale.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
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 explain why.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, always. The report is dated and includes photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. Keep it in your maintenance log.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
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 law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Extract fan repair in Morden
Before anything is ordered, we diagnose. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked and the speed control too. After that, you get a fixed price for what’s needed. If you have vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen, we can put it right.
For a London kitchen, a failed extract fan usually means the cooking stops, and a closed kitchen loses a night’s trade. Fans in Morden are often on a roof or in a basement at the end of a long duct run, so access is the first thing we ask about.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens if it’s left?
A struggling motor runs hotter and works harder. That shortens its life and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Catching it early keeps the repair small. It’s better booked as a planned job in Morden than handled as an emergency.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What you get with us
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line

When it’s something else
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan repair won’t do:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Extract fan repair in Morden: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 152 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 62 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Morden, up to about a mile and a half out. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. A failed fan in a London kitchen normally means a closed kitchen, so access details help us plan the repair. Environmental health officers from Merton council inspect food businesses in Morden. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. That is one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Lawrence Church or elsewhere in Morden, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed. School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Morden Primary School, fix a failing fan before term starts. If you run a kitchen close to St Helier station and the extract fan is getting noisy, a planned repair after closing beats a breakdown at the rush.

Advice
How the job changes from site to site
Direct-drive fans
Direct-drive fans have the impeller mounted straight on the motor. There are no belts, so faults tend to be in the motor, bearings or impeller.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. Access affects how long a repair takes, so we ask about it early.
Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Morden
You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Parking and loading at the site
- The times the site is available
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will talk you through it.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Any previous report or certificate
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
If parts have to be ordered, we tell you how the kitchen can carry on in the meantime. The fan is completed on a return visit outside your busiest hours.
Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures, so it’s worth acting early.
