Extract fan repair in Crockerhill
Our engineers handle all sorts of fan faults in Crockerhill, from rattling and humming to a fan that has stopped dead. The fault is diagnosed, quoted at a fixed price and put right or fit a replacement when it’s beyond repair. If you are dealing with a fan shaking on its mountings and poor airflow at the canopy, we can put it right.
In a small place like Crockerhill, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part
Impellers and housings
The fan housing collects grease too. We check both, and cleaning can form part of the repair.
Motors and bearings
The motor and its bearings work hardest. Hot, greasy air and long days wear them down.
Questions from Crockerhill
Which council inspects kitchens in Crockerhill?
Kitchens in Crockerhill are inspected by Fareham council’s environmental health officers. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Can you work in Crockerhill outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
We can. Replacing a fan is part of our fits and repairs work and we will talk you through what’s involved.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® itself is not law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
The price depends on the diagnosis. Once we’ve looked at it, you get a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement.

What else we do in Crockerhill
The process
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Crockerhill and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Advice
Why act early in Crockerhill
Wherever the kitchen is, Crockerhill included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before it becomes a nuisance. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
Why us?
- Each visit written up, with pictures
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
- We’re fully insured

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
When something else is needed
Extract fan repair cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair will not touch
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Problems with the electrical supply to the fan (an electrician’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

What extract fan repair looks like in Crockerhill
The coast is only about 3 miles from Crockerhill. Motor mounts, bolts and housings on outdoor fans corrode faster close to the coast. Food Standards Agency records list about 13 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Crockerhill and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Environmental health officers from Fareham council inspect food businesses in Crockerhill. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Crockerhill, can seize between uses.

When to call us in Crockerhill
Some faults are in the controls rather than the fan. Speed controllers, isolators and wiring can all fail, and a fan that will not start isn’t always a dead motor.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- An overheating extract motor
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like The Henry Cort Community College, fix a failing fan before term starts.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
