- A fan that will not start at all
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
Different parts, different methods
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Cleaning it can cure the noise as long as the bearings are still sound.
Belt-driven fans
In a belt-driven fan, the motor drives the impeller by belt. Worn belts squeal and slow the fan down, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
About our extract fan repair in Tetsworth
Kitchens in Tetsworth call us about extract fans and motors that are noisy, slow or dead, we find the cause and quote a fixed price to repair or replace it. When the fan gives up mid-service, our 24/7 emergency line is there. We’re often asked to deal with a fan that keeps cutting out and a fan worn beyond sensible repair, on bearings, fan motors and roof and wall fans.
In a village or hamlet like Tetsworth, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
Think of the report as the 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.

FAQs for Tetsworth
Do you cover smaller places like Tetsworth?
Yes, Tetsworth is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Tetsworth?
Food hygiene inspections in Tetsworth are carried out by South Oxfordshire council. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
The ductwork is a separate job. We will point out grease where we find it and quote for a TR19 clean if it’s needed.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
We do. A replacement is matched to the system it’s going into, and you get a fixed quote first.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
What extract fan repair looks like in Tetsworth
Food hygiene inspections in Tetsworth are the job of South Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off. Tetsworth, about 42 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
For school kitchens, at schools like Tetsworth Primary School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.

How the visit 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 the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Tetsworth.
- 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 get our diagnosis and a fixed quote to repair or replace.
- We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What happens if it’s left?
A noisy fan rarely fixes itself. Worn bearings can seize without much warning, and that often happens mid-service. A repair booked now is simpler than an emergency later. In a place like Tetsworth, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
Before we leave, the fan is run and checked. We explain the fault and the fix along with anything else that needs watching.
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.
Signs you need extract fan repair in Tetsworth
Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Tetsworth or anywhere else. Belts on a belt-driven fan stretch and wear and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- An extract fan that has stopped working
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Giles or elsewhere in Tetsworth, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.
