About our extract fan repair in Mundy Bois
Diagnosis comes before parts. We look at the motor, the belts or direct drive, the impeller and the mountings and the speed control too. Then you’re given a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. If you have a fan worn beyond sensible repair and poor airflow at the canopy, we can put it right, from kitchen extract fans, roof and wall fans and belts and pulleys onwards.
In a small place like Mundy Bois, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Mundy Bois.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Advice
Your questions about extract fan repair in Mundy Bois
Can you get to a site in Mundy Bois?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Mundy Bois is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you work overnight in Mundy Bois?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Mundy Bois keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
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 so there are no surprises.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Which records should we keep?
Every certificate and report from each visit, kept together in your maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Leave it or put it right?
A fan that is running slowly isn’t clearing the kitchen properly. The kitchen becomes an uncomfortable place to work and grease has more chance to settle on surfaces and in the duct. A fault that closes a site in a village like Mundy Bois affects everyone who depends on it.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Mundy Bois
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- The times the site is available
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The site address and the type of premises
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
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 at a time that suits your service.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and protects the motor.
Signs you need extract fan repair in Mundy Bois
Fan bearings don’t last for ever, especially in a hot, greasy airstream. Worn bearings whine, rumble or grind and a seized bearing stops the fan.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A motor that trips out or overheats
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St James or elsewhere in Mundy Bois, can seize between uses.
What to look for in a quote
- What hours they’ll be on site
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
Part by part
Fan controls
Controls are checked as well as the fan itself since the motor isn’t always to blame.
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. With no belts to wear, we look at the motor, bearings and impeller.
