What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Nash
Across Nash, we deal with fan faults of every kind, from rattling and humming to a fan that has stopped dead. The fault is diagnosed, quoted at a fixed price and put right or fit a replacement when it’s beyond repair. If you’re dealing with a fan rattling in its housing and a fan that keeps cutting out, we can help, from fan motors, belts and pulleys and fan housings onwards.
In London, getting a new fan to the roof or plant room can take planning, with parking and lifting to arrange in Nash. Work can be done after service, so the kitchen loses as little time as possible.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What we do, step by step
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. In Nash, as across London, we typically work overnight or at weekends and hand the site back ready to open.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
- We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
- You get our diagnosis and a fixed quote to repair or replace.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
How to get a quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

FAQs for Nash
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Nash?
Food hygiene inspections in Nash are carried out by Bromley council. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Can parking be tricky for a job in Nash?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. If the building has a loading slot system, we’ll book into it.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
It can be one of a few things, including bearings, belts, grease and mounts. The safest step is a proper diagnosis before the fault gets worse.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
A fan repair on its own does not include the ductwork. We’ll tell you what we see, so you can decide whether to book a TR19 clean.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Honest limits
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan repair will not do:
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What extract fan repair looks like in Nash
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 12 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 13 sandwich bars and takeaways in Nash and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. London extract fans are often at the end of long duct runs, on roofs or in basements. Kitchens in Nash get their food hygiene inspections from Bromley council. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Wickham Common Primary School or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.

Around Nash
In Nash, that means kitchens and buildings near The Greyhound pub, All Saints Catholic School and Coney Hall Recreation Ground and the streets around them. Nash’s nearest station is Hayes (Kent) station, roughly 1.4 miles north of the centre. A little further out are The Mall (3.2 miles north) and Bethlem Museum of the Mind (1.8 miles north).

Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. We explain the fault and the fix, and anything else we noticed is pointed out.
Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings, so it’s worth acting early.
What we are called out for in Nash
Some faults are in the controls rather than the fan. Speed controllers, isolators and wiring can all fail, and a fan that will not start is not always a dead motor.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Keston Parish Church, or anywhere in Nash, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

What affects the cost of extract fan repair
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How big the system is
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
