Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Roxeth
Across Roxeth, we deal with fan faults of every kind, from a squeal at start-up to a fan that won’t run at all. We find the cause, give you a fixed price and fix it, or the fan is replaced if repair does not make sense. The work covers kitchen extract fans, fan motors and roof and wall fans, and people most often call us about an extract fan that rattles or knocks and vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts.
For a London kitchen, a failed extract fan typically means the cooking stops. In Roxeth, as across London, fans often sit on a roof or deep in a plant space, so access is the first thing we ask about.
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. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What we do, step by step
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Roxeth.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Advice
FAQs for Roxeth
Does London parking affect a job in Roxeth?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Roxeth makes the visit easier to plan. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Roxeth?
The local authority for Roxeth is Harrow council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
The cost depends on what’s wrong and how easy the fan is to reach. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote so there are no surprises.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
That depends on what we find. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic, then send you a fixed quote.
Do you cover Roxeth?
Yes. Roxeth is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Part by part
Fan controls
Speed controllers and isolators sit between the supply and the fan. A control fault can leave the fan dead or stuck at one speed.
Motors and bearings
Rumbling and grinding typically come from the bearings. We find out whether the bearings or the motor is at fault before recommending a fix.
Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Roxeth
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
- The number of sites or systems
- How easy every part is to reach
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
What else we do in Roxeth
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
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.
Clogged filters make the fan strain. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and protects the motor.
Signs you need extract fan repair in Roxeth
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A fan that won’t start at all
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Roxeth Primary School or nearby, a fan that’s getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.
