Extract fan repair in Strawberry Hill
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: we hear the symptoms, find the cause and put it right. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a plain account of what we found. If you have a belt-driven fan that squeals and a failed fan that needs a replacement, we can put it right.
In London, a kitchen without working extraction cannot keep cooking safely, and a closed kitchen loses a night’s trade. Fans in Strawberry Hill are often on a roof or in a basement at the end of a long duct run, so we ask about access first.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Strawberry Hill
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- How big the system is
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Keep the area around the fan controls clear
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
Before we leave, the fan is run and checked. We explain the fault and the fix along with anything else that needs watching.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, so the fan is looked at as part of each visit and problems are spotted sooner.
Do you need extract fan repair in Strawberry Hill?
Some faults are in the controls rather than the fan. A failed speed controller or a wiring fault can stop a fan, and a fan that will not start is not always a dead motor.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A dead fan motor
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A whining or grinding extract motor
For a takeaway near Strawberry Hill station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7.
What your quote should include
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
Honest limits
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Bearings
- Fan motors
- Belts and pulleys
- Fan housings
- Roof and wall fans
- Kitchen extract fans
Why act early in Strawberry Hill
An overloaded motor is under constant strain. Every hour of strain takes its toll and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Early attention keeps the cost and disruption down. Shared walls, risers and roofs mean a problem at one London site seldom stays put.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What you get with us
- Each visit written up, with photos
- Fully insured
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Strawberry Hill: your questions answered
How do you handle parking and loading in Strawberry Hill?
Tell us where a van can stop near your site in Strawberry Hill, and about any building rules on loading. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.
What if my kitchen extract fan stops in Strawberry Hill at night?
Strawberry Hill is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Phone 0345 646 2711 and we’ll talk through the fault and access. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
What makes a kitchen extract fan rattle or whine?
An unbalanced, greasy impeller vibrates and that is one of the most common reasons. Bearings, belts and mountings can also be to blame.
How much time does a fan repair need?
A typical repair takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan including running the fan afterwards. We’ll fit it around the kitchen’s hours where possible.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The report recommends when the next visit should be, based on use and what we found.

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. In a London area like Strawberry Hill, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

When a fan fails in Strawberry Hill
There are about 194 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 31 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Strawberry Hill, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. A failed fan in a London kitchen usually means a closed kitchen, so access details help us plan the repair. Environmental health officers from Richmond-Upon-Thames council inspect food businesses in Strawberry Hill. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near Holy Trinity Church or elsewhere in Strawberry Hill, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up. If you manage a school such as Kneller Hall Senior School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.
