Honest limits

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
  • Grease throughout the ductwork, which needs a full TR19 clean
  • Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

About our extract fan repair in Avon Castle

A faulty fan doesn’t always mean a new one. Sometimes cleaning the impeller or renewing worn parts is enough and we will say so. When a fan is worn beyond sensible repair, we fit a replacement matched to the duct and the kitchen. Common call-outs are for a dead fan motor and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, on fan housings, fan motors and belts and pulleys.

For a fan repair in or near Avon Castle, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.

Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Avon Castle, let us know and we’ll plan around it.

  1. We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
  2. We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
  3. We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
  4. You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
  5. The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.

How to prepare

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use

How to get a quote

Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Part by part

Fan controls

Supply faults are a job for an electrician. We will tell you if that’s what we find and explain what we found.

Belt-driven fans

A squeal when the fan starts is a classic belt symptom. We check the belt condition, tension and alignment and renew them where needed.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Avon Castle

The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:

  • How big the system is
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • What state the system is in
  • Travel, parking and unloading

The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow

To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.

Between visits

Once we have finished, these simple steps help:

  • Clean or change filters on schedule
  • Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
  • Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
  • Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system

Once the fan is running smoothly, keep the filters clean. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and the quieter it runs.

When filters block, the fan works harder. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and protects the motor.

Extract fan repair in Avon Castle: local notes

Look up Avon Castle on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 23 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Avon Castle. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Kitchens in Avon Castle get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.

If you manage a school such as St Ives Primary & Nursery School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. Around Avon Castle, a failed fan can be reported day or night on our 24/7 line.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Questions from Avon Castle

Can you come to Avon Castle after we close?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Avon Castle keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.

Who do I call if an extract fan fails in Avon Castle?

Extract fan emergencies in Avon Castle are covered around the clock. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Details of the make and model help us plan the repair.

Why is our extract fan so noisy?

An unbalanced, greasy impeller vibrates and that’s one of the most common reasons. Worn bearings, belts and loose mounts are others.

Do we need to close while you work?

Not typically. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so you keep your normal hours.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?

The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.

Are you accredited?

CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

What do you do to protect the area?

By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
