Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Teynham Street
The extract fan is what pulls smoke, heat and steam out of the kitchen. Once it turns noisy, sluggish or stops altogether, the kitchen gets hot and smoky very quickly. Our engineers track down the fault and fix it with a repair or a replacement. We’re often asked to deal with a fan that whines, hums or grinds and a motor that trips out or overheats, across kitchen extract fans, belts and pulleys and roof and wall fans.
Somewhere as small as Teynham Street, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Do you need extract fan repair in Teynham Street?
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, so the fan runs out of balance and the noise follows.
Look out for any of the following:
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- A fan that won’t start at all
- Poor airflow at the canopy
For kitchens close to Teynham station, a fan that stops mid-service needs fixing fast, and our emergency line runs 24/7.
What your quote should include

Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Belts and pulleys
- Fan housings
- Fan motors
- Kitchen extract fans
- Roof and wall fans
- Bearings
Why deal with it now?
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. That reduces extraction without fixing anything while the underlying wear continues. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Teynham Street is calmer for everyone.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
What you get with us

What happens on the day
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Teynham Street run smoothly.
- 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
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us where we can park and unload
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 us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know rather than waiting for it to fail.
Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures, so it’s worth acting early.
Extract fan repair in Teynham Street: local notes
Sea air reaches Teynham Street, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Motor mounts, bolts and housings on outdoor fans corrode faster close to the coast. Look up Teynham Street on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens across Teynham Street and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Kitchens in Teynham Street get their food hygiene inspections from Swale council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
If you manage a school such as Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Teynham Street, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up.

Common questions in Teynham Street
Can you get to a site in Teynham Street?
Yes. Teynham Street is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Teynham Street?
We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and Teynham Street is part of our area. Use 0345 646 2711, our emergency number, at any time. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
The cost depends on what’s wrong and how easy the fan is to reach. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote before any work starts.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a dated report with pictures, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
It depends on the fault. After diagnosing, we explain whether it can be repaired and quote a fixed price for the option you choose.
