Extract fan repair in Fyfield
Grease is hard on extract fans. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance and the vibration wears out bearings and fixings. So when we repair extract fan, we look at the grease too, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. Typical jobs include a humming noise from the fan motor and an old fan that needs replacing, on belts and pulleys, fan housings and roof and wall fans.
Somewhere as small as Fyfield, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. A failed fan stops the kitchen, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What extract fan repair looks like in Fyfield
Food hygiene inspections in Fyfield are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Fyfield, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up. Kitchens in Fyfield can call our 24/7 emergency line whenever an extract fan stops.

What a clean will not put right

- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer

Fyfield: your questions answered
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Fyfield?
Fyfield is covered, and our emergency callout runs 24/7. Use 0345 646 2711, our emergency number, at any time. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Can you work in Fyfield outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Fyfield keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Anything that proves the system is maintained: our reports and photos, any certificates and your in-house logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
Common causes are grease on the impeller, worn bearings, slipping belts and loose mountings. Rattles, whines and grinding point to different faults, and we diagnose it on site.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurance policies ask for proof of TR19® cleaning. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 in England and Wales.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
It depends on the fault. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic, then give you a fixed quote.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- What state the system is in
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Fyfield can be planned properly.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will normally have a quote within one working day.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. A new noise or vibration is worth reporting early, so it can be looked at before it grows.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and protects the motor.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
Why act early in Fyfield
Where the cooking gas supply is interlocked with the extract, a failed fan can stop the kitchen cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. If the system at a site near Fyfield fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.
