About our extract fan repair in Wildridings
If an extract fan in Wildridings is struggling or has stopped, we diagnose the fault and send you a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. When the fan gives up mid-service, our 24/7 emergency line is there. The work covers fan motors, roof and wall fans and kitchen extract fans, and people most often call us about a fan shaking on its mountings and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen.
In a place like Wildridings, extract fans are often older units on a wall or roof. An older fan that fails may be better replaced than repaired.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What happens if it’s left?

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Questions from Wildridings
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Wildridings?
Wildridings is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Use 0345 646 2711, our emergency number, at any time. Details of the make and model help us plan the repair.
Which council inspects kitchens in Wildridings?
Kitchens in Wildridings are inspected by Bracknell Forest council’s environmental health officers. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Which records should we keep?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
Repairing the fan doesn’t clean the canopy or ducts. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking and we can plan the two together.
Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Noise from an outside fan can carry beyond the kitchen. It’s often down to loose mounts or worn bearings.
Motors and bearings
An overheating motor is a warning sign. The cause might be grease restricting the airflow or the motor may be near the end of its life.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
If the fan had grease on it, the rest of the system almost certainly does too. We can book a TR19® clean of the whole extract, with a certificate and photo report.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings so early attention pays.
