Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Pusey
Everything a kitchen extract does depends on the fan. When it starts to rattle, hum or slow down, the kitchen gets hot and smoky very quickly. We find out why and put it right with a repair or a replacement. If you’re dealing with a whining or grinding extract motor and a fan that won’t start at all, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Pusey, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Common problems we fix in Pusey
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. The fan’s movement then travels into the ductwork and structure, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dead fan motor
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- A squealing belt on start-up
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Buckland Church of England Primary School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.

What happens if it’s left?
Wherever the kitchen is, Pusey included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Fixing the cause quietens it down before neighbours notice. It’s simpler to plan the work at Pusey now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.
What you get with us
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- Member of BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- Photo reports with every job
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Never run the extract with filters missing
Your kitchen can get back to normal as soon as the fan is running. We leave the area tidy and explain anything you need to know.
Noise is normally the first sign of a fan problem. Booking a check at this stage keeps it a planned job instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Pusey run smoothly.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

Pusey: your questions answered
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Pusey?
In Pusey, it’s Vale of White Horse council that carries out food hygiene inspections. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Pusey out of hours?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Pusey is within the area we cover. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. If you can, stop cooking until the fan is checked.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The report recommends when the next visit should be, based on what we found and how the system is used.
Will you fit a new fan if ours cannot be repaired?
We can. Replacing a fan is part of our fits and repairs work, and we’ll explain the options.
