What the work involves, part by part
Impellers and housings
Where an impeller is bent or corroded, cleaning will not help. It may need replacing, or the fan may need replacing as a whole.
Fan controls
Supply faults are a job for an electrician. We’ll tell you if that’s what we find and explain what we found.
Extract fan repair in Wexham Court
Grease is hard on extract fans. A coated impeller spins unevenly and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. So when we repair extract fan, we look at the grease too and can arrange a TR19® clean of the whole system at the same time. The work covers bearings, roof and wall fans and kitchen extract fans, and the jobs we see most are an old fan that needs replacing and a fan shaking on its mountings.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Questions from Wexham Court
Do you cover Wexham Court for emergency fan repairs?
Wexham Court is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Can you come to Wexham Court after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Wexham Court needn’t be disturbed. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not typically. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
Common causes are grease on the impeller, worn bearings, slipping belts and loose mountings. Rattles, whines and grinding point to different faults and we find the exact cause on site.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
Often it makes sense to do both. A TR19 clean covers the canopy, plenum, ductwork and fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Common problems we fix in Wexham Court
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, and an unbalanced impeller shakes and the noise follows.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- A squealing belt on start-up
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
Hall kitchens near Parish Church of St Mary, or anywhere around Wexham Court, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the next visit should be, and why
- What records you will receive afterwards
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- Whether a survey comes first
Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Do not wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
Once we’re done, the extract is back in service. We leave the area tidy and talk you through what we found.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and helps prevent overheating.
What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
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, which is where we come in.
