The hood is your kitchen's breathing: when it weakens, smells drift through the whole flat, walls and cabinets turn greasy and yellow, and steam settles on everything. And there is a quieter danger: a grease-saturated filter sitting above stove heat is flammable material — and a motor pulling against a clogged filter runs harder, runs hotter, and burns out years early.
Kitchen Hood Repair — Get the Strong Suction Back
A weak hood isn't always broken — sometimes it's just choking. That's why we inspect in order: filters, then the duct, then the motor — and we replace the motor only when it is truly the cause, not as the first answer. Every type and brand, with a free inspection and a written warranty up to one year.

Why the kitchen hood is one of the most important appliances at home
Here is the honest part: a weak hood isn't always broken — sometimes it's just choking. So our inspection runs in strict order across 3 points: first the filters (saturated? deep-clean or replace), then the duct and pipe (blocked? too long or too narrow since installation day?), and only last the motor itself. The result: you don't pay for a new motor when the problem was a washable filter — and we measure suction before and after the work, so the difference shows in numbers, not words.
And something many people don't know: there are two hood types — extraction (vents air outside) and recirculation (filters air through a carbon filter and returns it). If yours is the second type and it has started "returning the smell", the carbon filter is most likely spent — it needs replacing every 4-6 months; it doesn't mean the appliance is dead. The technician identifies your type and sets the right maintenance schedule.
Every hood type we repair
Whatever hood you have — we service it precisely with warranty.
Hood types by installation
Wall-mounted hood
The most common type. Installed on the wall directly above the stove. Common faults: weak suction, motor noise, lighting.
Learn moreIsland hood
Mounted from the ceiling above a kitchen island. Installation is more complex because it hangs from the ceiling. Faults include the ceiling-side electrical wiring.
Learn moreUnder-cabinet hood
Installed under a cabinet above the stove. Smaller capacity but practical for small kitchens.
Learn moreBuilt-in (integrated) hood
The built-in hood integrated into the cabinet, not visible. Faults require partial cabinet removal.
Learn moreChimney hood
The classic chimney-shaped hood, common in premium kitchens.

Hood Specialist vs. General Handyman — Who Finds the Real Cause?
The hood is mechanically the simplest appliance in the kitchen — and the one people waste the most money on. The reason: lazy diagnosis. See the difference:
3 checks in order: filter, duct, motor — with suction measured before and after
"Motor's dead, buy a new one" — and after replacement the suction is still weak because the duct is blocked
Knows the difference: metal filters wash and return, carbon filters replace every 4-6 months
Doesn't know the difference — the carbon filter gets washed by mistake and becomes useless
Pipe diameter and length are calculated — bad ducting chokes even the strongest motor
Any pipe, any diameter — and the new hood ends up weaker than the old one
Motor bearings, fan balance, or duct flutter — identified by inspection
"It's been like that forever" — until the motor stops entirely
Written 3-12 month warranty on part and labor, on a tax invoice
A verbal promise that vanishes with the first unanswered call
