- A belt-driven fan that squeals
Different parts, different methods
Direct-drive fans
Direct-drive fans are compact and common in kitchen extracts. If the motor has gone, a replacement unit is often the sensible option and we’ll talk you through it.
Belt-driven fans
Belt-driven fans have a motor that turns the impeller through belts and pulleys. Worn belts squeal and slow the fan down, and pulleys and bearings need checking too.
How we handle extract fan repair in Trotton Marsh
A faulty fan does not always mean a new one. Often a clean, a new belt or new bearings brings it back, and that is what we’ll recommend. When a fan is worn beyond sensible repair, we fit a replacement matched to the duct and the kitchen. We’re often asked to deal with weak extraction and a smoky kitchen and a whining or grinding extract motor, across kitchen extract fans, fan housings and belts and pulleys.
Somewhere as small as Trotton Marsh, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.

What we do, step by step
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. Somewhere like Trotton Marsh, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- You get our diagnosis and a fixed quote to repair or replace.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
Before we arrive
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Common questions in Trotton Marsh
Can you work in Trotton Marsh outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Trotton Marsh does not have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Will you come out to Trotton Marsh?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The law calls them the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you’re fixing the fan?
Often it makes sense to do both. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What affects the quote in Trotton Marsh
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- What state the system is in
- The number of sites or systems
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How big the system is
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks

Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine right away
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and fewer faults.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. Keeping grease off the impeller is one of the simplest ways to protect it, so planned cleaning helps the fan last.
What extract fan repair cannot fix
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
