About our extract fan repair in North Stoke
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. The aim is steady, quiet extraction and a plain account of what we found. If you have a failed fan that needs a replacement and a motor that trips out or overheats, we can put it right, from fan motors, kitchen extract fans and roof and wall fans onwards.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. Weather and grease together wear out motors and bearings.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Do you need extract fan repair in North Stoke?
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in North Stoke or anywhere else. On belt-driven fans, belts stretch, crack and start to slip and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.
Look out for these warning signs:
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
Hall kitchens near St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere around North Stoke, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.

What the work involves, part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. Access affects how long a repair takes, so we ask about it early.
Direct-drive fans
Many kitchen extracts use direct-drive fans. If the motor has gone, a replacement unit is often the sensible option and we will talk you through it.
North Stoke: your questions answered
Which council inspects kitchens in North Stoke?
Kitchens in North Stoke are inspected by South Oxfordshire council’s environmental health officers. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in North Stoke out of hours?
We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and North Stoke is part of our area. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. If you can, stop cooking until the fan is checked.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
Every fan job is priced once we know the fault. Repair, parts or a full replacement all cost differently so the first step is a diagnosis.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes, always. The report is dated and includes pictures, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Why act early in North Stoke
A struggling motor runs hotter and works harder. Every hour of strain takes its toll and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Catching it early keeps the repair small. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll explain what it covers.
