- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
Different parts, different methods
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Cleaning it can cure the noise, if the bearings haven’t been damaged.
Fan controls
Every fan has controls, from a speed controller to an isolator. A control fault can leave the fan dead or stuck at one speed.
Extract fan repair in Sutton Scotney
Working on a fan in Sutton Scotney means switching the extract off first, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. We can work in the evening, overnight or at the weekend, and a fan that dies mid-service can go straight to our 24/7 line. Common call-outs are for an extract that vibrates through the ductwork and an overheating extract motor, across bearings, roof and wall fans and fan motors.
For a fan repair in or near Sutton Scotney, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: pictures of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Looking after it afterwards
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
- Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. You will hear what we found and what we did, and anything else we noticed is pointed out.
A 3, 6 or 12-monthly cleaning plan brings us back at set intervals, so the fan is looked at as part of each visit and wear is caught earlier.

Common reasons sites call us are:
- A squealing belt on start-up
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
If a fan fails in Sutton Scotney at night or at a weekend, our emergency line is open.

- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.

Advice
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

What a clean will not put right
Extract fan repair can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It doesn’t solve:
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Sutton Scotney
Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Sutton Scotney?
Sutton Scotney is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Do you work overnight in Sutton Scotney?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
An unbalanced, greasy impeller vibrates, which is a common cause of noise. Bearings, belts and mountings can also be to blame.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Which records should we keep?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them together and easy to find.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Will you fit a new fan if ours can’t be repaired?
Yes. A replacement is matched to the system it’s going into with a fixed price agreed before work begins.
