How we handle extract fan repair in Wentworth

Think of it as a check-up for the fan: we hear the symptoms, find the cause and put it right. The aim is steady, quiet extraction and a clear explanation of what was done. We’re often asked to deal with an extract that vibrates through the ductwork and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen, on fan motors, bearings and kitchen extract fans.

A callout to a small place like Wentworth goes better when we know what we’re looking at: pictures of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Part by part

Motors and bearings

The motor and its bearings work hardest. Heat, grease and long running hours all wear them.

Roof and wall-mounted fans

Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. How easy the fan is to reach shapes the job, so we ask about it early.

Wentworth questions

Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Wentworth?

Day or night, a failed fan in Wentworth can be reported on our emergency line. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Wentworth?

In Wentworth, it’s Runnymede council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may ask how the kitchen is ventilated, so keep repair records with your maintenance file.

Do you provide a certificate or report?

Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.

How long will the fan be out of action?

Typically, a fan repair takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. If parts have to be ordered, we’ll tell you how long that is likely to be.

Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?

A repair deals with the fan, not the grease in the rest of the system. Grease on the fan typically means grease in the ducts and we can plan the two together.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

What do you do to protect the area?

We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.

When to call us in Wentworth

Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Wentworth or anywhere else. On belt-driven fans, belts stretch, crack and start to slip and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • A squealing belt on start-up
  • A fan shaking on its mountings
  • An old fan that needs replacing
  • A fan that will not start at all

If you manage a school such as Christ Church CofE Aided Infant School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

Questions to ask before booking

  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
  • How VAT is shown on the quote
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed

Our hiring checklist

The process

Your staff do not need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Wentworth and turn up when the site is quiet.

  1. A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
  2. We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
  3. Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
  4. We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
  5. The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.

How to prepare

  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

How to get a quote

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Advice

When it’s something else

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan repair will not do:

  • Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
  • A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
  • Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think.

What the work covers

  • Belts and pulleys
  • Kitchen extract fans
  • Fan housings
  • Bearings
  • Fan motors
  • Roof and wall fans

Extract fans in Wentworth

Food Standards Agency records list about 19 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens across Wentworth and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. At about 22 miles from central London, Wentworth sits well inside the area we cover. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. It’s Runnymede council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Wentworth. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Christ Church or elsewhere in Wentworth, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wentworth

Left alone, vibration spreads its damage. Fixings work loose and joints in the ductwork can be strained, so a small repair can grow into a bigger one. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Wentworth is calmer for everyone.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Full insurance on every job
  • Every job surveyed first
  • Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
  • Fixed quotes from a survey or photos

Managing agents and facilities teams in Wentworth

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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.

How we price extract fan repair

The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • How big the system is

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

Helping us quote

We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Problems your staff have spotted

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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 we can price many jobs without a visit.
