Extract fan repair in The Haven
Before anything is ordered, we diagnose. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked and the speed control too. After that, you get a fixed price for what’s needed. The work covers kitchen extract fans, bearings and belts and pulleys, and the jobs we see most are a failed fan that needs a replacement and a humming noise from the fan motor.
For a fan repair in or near The Haven, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the quote in The Haven
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- What state the system is in
- The size of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Any previous report or certificate
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
FAQs for The Haven
What if my kitchen extract fan stops in The Haven at night?
We run a 24/7 emergency line for failed extract fans, and The Haven is part of our area. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Can you work in The Haven outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in The Haven can fit around your hours. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
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.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
Every fan job is priced once we know the fault. A belt and a new fan are very different jobs so the first step is a diagnosis.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
That depends on what we find. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic, then send you a fixed quote.
What’s 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.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
Managing agents and facilities teams in The Haven
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Common problems we fix in The Haven
Fixings and anti-vibration mounts work loose or perish over time. The fan’s movement then travels into the ductwork and structure, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A fan that won’t start at all
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
For kitchens in and around The Haven, our emergency line runs 24/7.

Places near The Haven
What else we do in The Haven
Why deal with it now?
Weak extraction leaves heat, smoke and fumes in the kitchen. The kitchen becomes an uncomfortable place to work, and more grease settles where it shouldn’t. In a small place like The Haven, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

With belts and pulleys, there’s more to wear. More parts to inspect, but many faults are straightforward to fix.
Fan controls
Where the fault is in the building’s electrical supply, an electrician is needed. If that’s the cause, we’ll say so and explain what we found.
