Keeping the system healthy

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
  • Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
  • Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
  • Keep all filters fitted while cooking

Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and fewer faults.

Clogged filters make the fan strain. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and helps prevent overheating.

Extract fan repair in Speen, done properly

Grease is hard on extract fans. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance, which shakes the bearings and mountings. So when we repair extract fan, we look at the grease too and can arrange a TR19® clean of the whole system at the same time. The work covers bearings, fan housings and fan motors, and the jobs we see most are an extract fan that has stopped working and a worn or slipping fan belt.

Somewhere as small as Speen, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

When a fan fails in Speen

Food Standards Agency data counts about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Speen and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. Speen is about 32 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Speen. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. Getting the fan running again is the priority.

If you manage a school such as Speen CofE VA School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

Speen is about 5 miles north of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire. Speen gets the same approach as every site we work on: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with pictures. 263 places in Buckinghamshire are on our list, from busy centres to quieter spots. For sites nearby, see our Reading page, about 19 miles away.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

What happens if it’s left?

Weak extraction leaves heat, smoke and fumes in the kitchen. Staff work in hotter, steamier air and grease has more chance to settle on surfaces and in the duct. Somewhere as small as Speen, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

The process

Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Speen knowing what to expect.

  1. First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
  2. Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
  3. The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
  4. We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
  5. The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.

Before we arrive

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

FAQs for Speen

Can you come to Speen after we close?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Speen?

Kitchens in Speen are inspected by Buckinghamshire council’s environmental health officers. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.

Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?

We look at repairing it first. If the fan is past saving, a replacement may be more sensible, and we’ll explain why.

What does TR19 mean?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.

Do you cover Speen?

Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Speen included.

How much notice should we give?

Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

Which sectors do you work in?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?

A repair deals with the fan, not the grease in the rest of the system. Grease on the fan typically means grease in the ducts, and we can arrange both.

Honest limits

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
  • A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
  • Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Where we work

  • Fan motors
  • Bearings
  • Fan housings
  • Belts and pulleys
  • Kitchen extract fans
  • Roof and wall fans

Common problems we fix in Speen

Blocked filters and greasy ducts make the fan work harder. A motor that strains runs hot, trips out or eventually burns out.

Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • An old fan that needs replacing
  • Poor airflow at the canopy
  • A fan shaking on its mountings
  • A fan that keeps cutting out

If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Speen Church (Baptist), or anywhere in Speen, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.
