- A humming noise from the fan motor

- A failed fan that needs a replacement
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Never run the extract with filters missing
Before we leave, the fan is run and checked. You will hear what we found and what we did along with anything else that needs watching.
A 3, 6 or 12-monthly cleaning plan brings us back at set intervals, which means the fan is seen regularly and wear is caught earlier.
How we handle extract fan repair in World's End
Diagnosis comes before parts. We look at the motor, the belts or direct drive, the impeller and the mountings, along with the fan’s controls. After that, you get a fixed price for what’s needed. The work covers fan housings, roof and wall fans and fan motors, and the jobs we see most are poor airflow at the canopy and a fan shaking on its mountings.
In London, getting a new fan to the roof or plant room can take planning, with parking and lifting to arrange in World's End. Work can be done after service, so the kitchen loses as little time as possible.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What affects the quote in World's End
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The times the site is available
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
We don’t publish a 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 start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Extract fan repair in World's End: local notes
Look up World's End on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 1,144 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 133 takeaways and sandwich shops across World's End and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. London extract fans are often at the end of long duct runs, on roofs or in basements. Kitchens in World's End get their food hygiene inspections from Kensington and Chelsea council. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. Getting the fan running again is the priority.
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near St John's Church Centre or elsewhere in World's End, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up. If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as Ashburnham Community School or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term. For a takeaway near Imperial Wharf station, a fan that fails on a busy evening means turning customers away, and our emergency line runs 24/7.
World's End is about 2 miles south-east of Kensington, in Greater London. Across the SW10 area, we can carry out extract fan repair at your premises. Our Greater London coverage runs to 764 places, and World's End is one of them.

Managing agents and facilities teams in World's End
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Leave it or put it right?
In World's End, as elsewhere, an extract fan may well sit outside on a wall or roof, so its noise doesn’t stay in the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before neighbours notice. It’s better booked as a planned job in World's End than handled as an emergency.
We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Questions from World's End
Which council inspects kitchens in World's End?
In World's End, it’s Kensington and Chelsea council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Do you work at weekends in World's End?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in World's End can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
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.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
That depends on what’s wrong, but most jobs take an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. We’ll give you a better idea once we’ve diagnosed it.
Where does the waste go?
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 should go in our maintenance log?
Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. If your building in World's End has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Move anything stored near the system
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
