Alameda County Hood Repair Services
Exhaust Fan, Ductwork & Motor Repairs for Commercial Kitchens
When your kitchen ventilation system isn’t working properly, you can’t afford downtime. At North Bay Restaurant Services, operating locally as East Bay Restaurant Services, we provide professional hood repair in Alameda County for restaurants, hotels, commissaries, and institutional kitchens.
Our technicians diagnose and repair issues with exhaust fans, belts, motors, hinges, and ductwork, keeping your system safe, efficient, and NFPA 96–compliant. From Oakland to San Leandro, we help you get back up and running quickly — with long-term solutions, not temporary fixes.
Exhaust Fan Repairs & Replacements
If your fan stops pulling air, vibrates excessively, or makes loud mechanical noise, our team can diagnose electrical, motor, or bearing issues and repair or replace the unit as needed. We also install fan hinges to ensure future cleanings meet code and can be done safely.
Hood Motor & Belt Service
A worn-out belt or motor can reduce airflow and put your system out of compliance. We carry and install high-performance replacement belts and motors to restore proper ventilation and balance.
Hood & Duct Repairs
Over time, grease buildup and vibration can damage metal seams or duct joints. Our technicians perform duct resealing, patching, and leak prevention to maintain airtight performance throughout the exhaust system.
Access Panel Installation for Code Compliance
If certain sections of your exhaust ductwork are inaccessible for cleaning, our team installs NFPA 96–approved access panels to ensure every area can be safely reached and cleaned. This prevents hidden grease accumulation — the leading cause of duct fires — and ensures your system meets inspection and insurance standards.
Fan Hinge & Roof-Mount Repairs
Loose or damaged hinges can cause dangerous fan movement during cleaning or inspection. We install NFPA-approved hinge kits, secure mounting brackets, and adjust fan alignment to extend equipment life and improve safety.
Electrical & Control Troubleshooting
We inspect fan switches, disconnect boxes, and control wiring to ensure proper operation. Our licensed repair team can troubleshoot and resolve fan start/stop or power supply issues that impact your hood’s performance.
Factory-Level Knowledge, Field-Tested Experience
With decades of combined experience servicing thousands of Bay Area kitchens, our technicians understand every major hood system configuration — from single-fan cafés to multi-story hotel ducts. We repair systems built by CaptiveAire, Gaylord, Halton, and custom fabricated units with precision and care.
NFPA 96–Compliant Repairs
All work is performed to meet or exceed NFPA 96 standards for fire and ventilation safety. We ensure proper fan clearance, secure access panels, and compliant hinge systems for ongoing inspections.
Integrated Maintenance Solutions
We coordinate all hood repairs with our hood cleaning services so your ventilation system is restored, cleaned, and fully compliant in one seamless process.

What types of hood repairs do you handle?
We repair and replace exhaust fans, belts, motors, hinges, access panels, duct joints, and electrical components for all major commercial kitchen ventilation systems.
Why are access panels important?
Access panels allow technicians to clean and inspect all areas of the exhaust ductwork. Without them, grease can build up in hidden sections and pose a serious fire risk. We install NFPA 96–approved panels to keep your system safe and compliant.
Are your repairs NFPA 96–compliant?
Yes — all repairs and replacements meet NFPA 96 fire code standards, including approved hinge systems and access panel installations.
Do you offer emergency hood repairs?
Yes — we provide same-day or next-day repair service throughout Alameda County, including Oakland, Berkeley, and surrounding areas.
Can you service multiple locations or large facilities?
Absolutely. We work with restaurant groups, hotels, commissaries, and multi-site facilities to coordinate ongoing maintenance and repairs across the East Bay.
