About our extract fan repair in New Haw
Diagnosis comes before parts. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked, along with the fan’s controls. Then you are given a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. If you have a knocking noise from the extract fan and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, we can help.
Around a place like New Haw, a pub, café or care home kitchen with a failed fan can’t carry on cooking as normal. Our 24/7 emergency line is there for exactly that.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and 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.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- 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.
Noise is usually the first sign of a fan problem. Getting it checked now means a planned repair rather than an emergency during service.
New Haw: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in New Haw?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, New Haw included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work overnight in New Haw?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in New Haw can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, always. 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 much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The recommended date is 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.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What extract fan repair looks like in New Haw
Food Standards Agency records list about 82 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 36 takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of New Haw. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. New Haw is about 20 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included. Food hygiene inspections in New Haw are the job of Runnymede council’s environmental health team. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
If you cook near Byfleet & New Haw station, long trading hours wear fan belts and bearings, so noise and vibration are worth reporting early. If you look after a church or hall kitchen near All Saints Church, or anywhere in New Haw, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

Related advice
Signs you need extract fan repair in New Haw
When filters clog and ducts fill with grease, the fan has to strain. An overworked motor overheats and may cut out or fail.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A fan rattling in its housing
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
- A worn or slipping fan belt
School kitchens cannot easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like The Grange Community Infant School, fix a failing fan before term starts.
What to look for in a quote
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether VAT is included
- What insurance they carry
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
Why act early in New Haw
Wherever the kitchen is, New Haw included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, so its noise doesn’t stay in the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before it becomes a nuisance. A planned visit to New Haw fits your hours; an emergency doesn’t.

Part by part
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. Both are inspected, and cleaning can form part of the repair.
Motors and bearings
If the motor runs hot or keeps tripping, something’s wrong. The cause might be grease restricting the airflow or the motor may be near the end of its life.
What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
