The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Hatchet Green can be planned properly.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
How to prepare
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear the space around the work
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Extract fan repair in Hatchet Green: local notes
Food hygiene inspections in Hatchet Green are the job of New Forest council’s environmental health team. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Hatchet Green, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

What affects the cost of extract fan repair
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How big the system is
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. You’ll hear what we found and what we did, and anything else we noticed is pointed out.
Clogged filters make the fan strain. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and protects the motor.
When to call us in Hatchet Green
Fixings and anti-vibration mounts work loose or perish over time. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- A motor that trips out or overheats
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
If you manage a school such as Hale Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.
Questions to ask before you book
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
Multi-site and managed buildings
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 to a regular schedule.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Why act early in Hatchet Green
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. It hides the symptom and weakens the extract while the underlying wear continues. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. It’s simpler to plan the work at Hatchet Green now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

FAQs for Hatchet Green
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Hatchet Green out of hours?
Extract fan emergencies in Hatchet Green are covered around the clock. Ring 0345 646 2711 at any hour and describe the fault. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Is Hatchet Green within the area you cover?
Yes. Hatchet Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
The ductwork is a separate job. We will point out grease where we find it, so you can decide whether to book a TR19 clean.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
We look at repairing it first. Where the motor has burnt out or the fan is worn out, replacing it can be the better answer and we will tell you the reasons.
Can you supply and fit a replacement fan?
Yes. Where a fan is beyond repair, we replace it with one suited to the duct and the kitchen, and you get a fixed quote first.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
What causes a noisy extract fan?
Noise normally comes from grease build-up, bearings, belts or loose fixings. Rattles, whines and grinding point to different faults and we find the exact cause on site.

Part by part
Motors and bearings
Motors and bearings take the most strain in a kitchen extract fan. Heat, grease and long running hours all wear them.
Belt-driven fans
Belt drives have more moving parts than direct-drive fans. That means more to check, but often a simpler repair.
