Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Teddington
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 a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. Typical jobs include a knocking noise from the extract fan and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen, across roof and wall fans, fan housings and belts and pulleys.
Rooftop fans in London take the weather as well as the grease from below, and bearings, belts and motors wear out in the end. Noise and vibration are worth reporting before the fan stops.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. Loading bays, visitor permits and roof access are the first things we ask about for a site in Teddington.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Honest limits
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Extract fan repair in Teddington: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 145 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 21 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Teddington. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. A failed fan in a London kitchen typically means a closed kitchen, so access details help us plan the repair. Kitchens in Teddington get their food hygiene inspections from Richmond-Upon-Thames council. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Christ Church or elsewhere in Teddington, can seize between uses. If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as St Mary's and St Peter's Church of England Primary School or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term.

Questions from Teddington
Can parking be tricky for a job in Teddington?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Teddington makes the visit easier to plan. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.
Which environmental health team covers Teddington?
In Teddington, it’s Richmond-Upon-Thames council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
How much time does a fan repair need?
That depends on what’s wrong, but as a guide it takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. You will know more once we’ve found the fault.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
Why it’s worth doing now in Teddington
Where the cooking gas supply is interlocked with the extract, a failed fan can stop the kitchen cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. Every month a London system goes without attention adds to what has to be done later.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

What we’re called out for in Teddington
In Teddington, as anywhere, long cooking days mean long hours for the fan. Belts on a belt-driven fan stretch and wear and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.
What we are most often called out for:
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
For a takeaway near Teddington station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7.
