Extract fan repair in Hampshire: how it works

Extract fan repair starts with a diagnosis. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping belt, while a fan that won’t start may have a motor or control fault. We explain the problem, and what it will take, before any work starts. The work covers kitchen extract fans, roof and wall fans and fan housings, and common reasons people get in touch are an extract fan that rattles or knocks and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen.

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement.

We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
On site, the fan is safely isolated.
The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
The work is done and the fan is tested running.

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Extract fans across Hampshire

Across Hampshire, from Basingstoke, Winchester and Gosport outwards, kitchens depend on their extract fans to keep cooking. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for when one fails.

From central London kitchens to coastal hotels and country pubs, London and the South East have every kind of site. Wherever the site is in Hampshire, the work is done to the same TR19® standard. In the coastal parts of Hampshire, salt air and damp are hard on ductwork, fans and dampers, which is worth knowing when systems are inspected.

Basingstoke: If you run a school kitchen, at a school such as King's Furlong Infant School and Nursery or nearby, a fan that is getting noisy is best repaired in the holidays before it fails in term. If you run a café or takeaway near Basingstoke station, a failed fan in the middle of service is exactly what our 24/7 emergency line is for.

Aftercare tips

So the system stays in good health:

Don’t wait for a noisy fan to stop
Write down when the fan misbehaves
Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
Make sure every filter is in place and clean

If parts have to be ordered, we tell you how the kitchen can carry on in the meantime. We then come back and fit them at a time that suits your service.

A scheduled maintenance plan keeps the whole system on a regular cycle, which means the fan is seen regularly and wear is caught earlier.

What affects the quote in Hampshire

The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
Whether several sites go on one quote
Parking and loading at the site
A single visit or a regular plan

You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Asking for a quote

You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:

Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.

When something else is needed

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:

Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
An extract system that was undersized from the start
A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair will not touch

Signs you need extract fan repair

Any kitchen that cooks for long hours works its fan hard, in Hampshire or anywhere else. On belt-driven fans, belts stretch, crack and start to slip and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

An overheating extract motor
A knocking noise from the extract fan
Poor airflow at the canopy
A failed fan that needs a replacement

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hampshire

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

FAQs for Hampshire

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?

We can. We fit replacement fans as well as repairing old ones, and we will explain the options.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

What should go in our maintenance log?

The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them together and easy to find.

Do we need to close the kitchen for fan work?

The extract must be off while the fan is opened up. We plan the visit around your hours to avoid losing a service.

How long will the fan be out of action?

A typical repair takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered including running the fan afterwards. We plan the work around your service where possible.

Does the report say when we need you again?

Yes. How often depends on use and condition, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
