Extract fan repair in New Malden
We treat a failing fan much like a patient: we hear the symptoms, find the cause and put it right. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a plain account of what we found. Common call-outs are for a fan rattling in its housing and an extract fan that has stopped working, on kitchen extract fans, belts and pulleys and fan motors.
Rooftop fans in London take the weather as well as the grease from below, and in time, bearings, belts and motors fail. A fan that is noisy or vibrating is giving a warning.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
FAQs for New Malden
Is parking a problem for work in New Malden?
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.
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in New Malden?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and New Malden is within the area we cover. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not normally. We need the work area to ourselves while we are on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
Grease on the blades throws the fan out of balance, which is a common cause of noise. Worn bearings, belts and loose mounts are others.
When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Extract fans in New Malden
There are about 142 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 47 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of New Malden, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Those that cook under a canopy rely on a fan that runs every hour they’re open. Kitchens in New Malden get their food hygiene inspections from Kingston-Upon-Thames council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That is one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan. In London, a fan on a roof or in a basement can take planning to reach, with parking and loading to arrange.
School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Christ Church New Malden CofE Primary School, fix a failing fan before term starts. If you run a kitchen close to New Malden station and the extract fan is getting noisy, a planned repair after closing beats a breakdown at the rush.

When to call us in New Malden
In New Malden, as anywhere, long cooking days mean long hours for the fan. On belt-driven fans, belts stretch, crack and start to slip, so the fan squeals or turns more slowly.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A fan that won’t start at all
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near New Malden Baptist Church, or anywhere in New Malden, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Never run the extract with filters missing
Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. The fan is completed on a return visit at a time that suits your service.
A fan that’s starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Getting it checked now means a planned repair instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
Why deal with it now?
Some kitchens run a noisy fan on a lower speed to cut the noise. It hides the symptom and weakens the extract while the underlying wear continues. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. In New Malden, as across London, ductwork often passes through shared risers and other people’s space.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
