Extract fan repair in South Bersted, done properly
If an extract fan in South Bersted is struggling or has stopped, we find the cause and quote a fixed price to repair or replace it. When the fan gives up mid-service, our 24/7 emergency line is there. If you’re dealing with a fan worn beyond sensible repair and an extract fan that rattles or knocks, we can help, from fan housings, bearings and kitchen extract fans onwards.
In a place like South Bersted, extract fans are often older units on a wall or roof. An older fan that fails may be better replaced than repaired, and we’ll explain the options.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Different parts, different methods
Belt-driven fans
In a belt-driven fan, the motor drives the impeller by belt. Belts wear, stretch and slip, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
Impellers and housings
A damaged or corroded impeller can’t simply be cleaned. It may be replaced on its own, or with the whole fan.

South Bersted: your questions answered
Will you come out to South Bersted?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and South Bersted is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Who inspects food businesses in South Bersted?
In South Bersted, it’s Arun council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
We do. Where a fan is beyond repair, we replace it with one suited to the duct and the kitchen with a fixed price agreed before work begins.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, always. The report is dated and includes photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. Keep it in your maintenance log.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
What we are called out for in South Bersted
When filters clog and ducts fill with grease, the fan has to strain. A motor that strains runs hot and may cut out or fail.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- An overheating extract motor
- A dead fan motor
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
If you cook near Bognor Regis station, long trading hours wear fan belts and bearings, so noise and vibration are worth reporting early.
Before booking anyone
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- What paperwork you get at the end
How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. Visits to a place like South Bersted are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
- We check the motor, bearings, drive, impeller and mountings.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- Once the work is done, we run the fan and check it’s steady and quiet.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Managing agents and facilities teams in South Bersted
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in South Bersted
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- What state the system is in
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Any permits to work or inductions
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
What happens if it’s left?
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast and fixing the fan early avoids a forced shutdown. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Why us?
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- Full insurance on every job

What extract fan repair looks like in South Bersted
At about 1 mile from the coast, South Bersted is close enough for sea air to matter. A fan exposed to sea air needs its fixings and housing checked more often than one inland. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 93 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 41 takeaways in South Bersted and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Those that cook under a canopy rely on a fan that runs every hour they’re open. Food hygiene inspections in South Bersted are the job of Arun council’s environmental health team. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of St Mary Magdalene, or anywhere in South Bersted, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day. Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as South Bersted CofE Primary School, rather than mid-term.
