Extract fan repair in Alderholt
Kitchens in Alderholt call us about extract fans and motors that are noisy, slow or dead, we find the cause and quote a fixed price to repair or replace it. When the fan gives up mid-service, our 24/7 emergency line is there. If you are dealing with a dead fan motor and an overheating extract motor, we can help, from fan motors, bearings and roof and wall fans onwards.
In a place like Alderholt, extract fans are often older units on a wall or roof. An older fan that fails may be better replaced than repaired.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Alderholt
In Alderholt, 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. Systems on quieter sites still build up dirt and wear, just more slowly.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What else we do in Alderholt
What extract fan repair looks like in Alderholt
In Alderholt, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
For school kitchens, at schools like St James' Church of England First School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time. Hall kitchens near Church of St James, or anywhere around Alderholt, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.

When something else is needed
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)

What the work covers

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
How the job changes from site to site
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.
Fan controls
Controls are checked as well as the fan itself, because a fan that won’t start is not always a failed motor.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
- Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
If the fan had grease on it, the rest of the system almost certainly does too. A full TR19® clean deals with the canopy, ductwork and fan together, with a certificate and photo report.
A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, so the fan is looked at as part of each visit and wear is caught earlier.

Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
