How we handle extract fan repair in Privett
Extract fan repair starts with a diagnosis. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping belt; a dead fan can point to the motor or its controls. We explain the problem, and what it will take, before work begins. Typical jobs include an extract fan that has stopped working and a fan worn beyond sensible repair, across fan motors, bearings and roof and wall fans.
For a fan repair in or near Privett, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: photos of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Privett: your questions answered
Can you come to Privett after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you cover Privett for emergency fan repairs?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Privett is within the area we cover. Ring 0345 646 2711 at any hour and describe the fault. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What happens if it’s left?
A fan that is running slowly is not clearing the kitchen properly. Staff work in hotter, steamier air and grease has more chance to settle on surfaces and in the duct. Planning a trip to Privett ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Privett knowing what to expect.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

How the job changes from site to site
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. Access affects how long a repair takes and we plan around it.
Direct-drive fans
In a direct-drive fan, the impeller sits on the motor shaft. There are no belts, so faults tend to be in the motor, bearings or impeller.

When to call us in Privett
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. It builds up on the impeller blades unevenly, and an unbalanced impeller shakes and starts to vibrate and rattle.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A humming noise from the fan motor
Kitchens in Privett can call our 24/7 emergency line whenever an extract fan stops.
