How we handle extract fan repair in Stoke Charity
Grease is hard on extract fans. A coated impeller spins unevenly, 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, kitchen extract fans and roof and wall fans, and the jobs we see most are a fan that keeps cutting out and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen.
A callout to a small place like Stoke Charity goes better when we know what we are looking at: pictures 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 are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
Listen to the fan over the next few weeks. A new noise or vibration is worth reporting early, so it can be looked at before it grows.
Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings, so it’s worth acting early.
What happens if it’s left?
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. That reduces extraction without fixing anything while the underlying wear continues. A proper diagnosis in Stoke Charity gets to the real cause. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
