Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Twelve Oaks
Before anything is ordered, we diagnose. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked, along with the fan’s controls. After that, you get a fixed price for what’s needed. If you have a fan shaking on its mountings and a fan that whines, hums or grinds, we can put it right, from roof and wall fans, kitchen extract fans and belts and pulleys onwards.
A callout to a small place like Twelve Oaks goes better when we know what we’re looking at: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Why deal with it now?
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. It’s simpler to plan the work at Twelve Oaks now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

Questions from Twelve Oaks
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Twelve Oaks?
Food hygiene inspections in Twelve Oaks are carried out by Rother council. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Can you work in Twelve Oaks outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Twelve Oaks can fit around your hours. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
What about areas you cannot get to?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
How much notice do you need?
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.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
It depends on the fault. After diagnosing, we explain whether it can be repaired, then send you a fixed quote.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
The price depends on the diagnosis. Once we’ve looked at it, you get a fixed quote for whichever option you choose.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
A fan repair on its own does not include the ductwork. We’ll point out grease where we find it and quote for a TR19 clean if it’s needed.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition of the system
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
What we need to know
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Somewhere as small as Twelve Oaks, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
- We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.

Fan controls
Where the fault is in the building’s electrical supply, an electrician is needed. We will tell you if that is what we find and explain what we found.
Impellers and housings
The impeller is the bladed wheel that moves the air. Grease on it throws it out of balance and make it shake.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
