Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Newport
Diagnosis comes before parts. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked, along with the fan’s controls. After that, you get a fixed price for what’s needed. Common call-outs are for a fan that whines, hums or grinds and an extract fan that has stopped working, on belts and pulleys, kitchen extract fans and bearings.
The usual signs are a noisy fan, poor extraction or a hot, smoky kitchen. In Newport, as anywhere, a repair before the fan stops is far less disruptive than an emergency.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

FAQs for Newport
Do you work overnight in Newport?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Newport needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which council inspects kitchens in Newport?
Kitchens in Newport are inspected by Isle of Wight council’s environmental health officers. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with pictures, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Related advice
When a fan fails in Newport
Food Standards Agency records list about 63 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 21 takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Newport. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Kitchens in Newport get their food hygiene inspections from Isle of Wight council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Nine Acres Primary School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term. Around Newport, a failed fan can be reported day or night on our 24/7 line.

What affects the quote in Newport
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
- The condition we find in the survey
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- A few general shots of the system
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. We explain the fault and the fix along with anything else that needs watching.
A fan that’s starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Booking a check at this stage keeps it a planned job instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair will not touch
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Part by part
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Cleaning it can cure the noise, if the bearings haven’t been damaged.
Fan controls
Supply faults are a job for an electrician. We will tell you if that is what we find and explain what we found.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
