About our extract fan repair in Hatchford

Before anything is ordered, we diagnose. The motor, drive, impeller, bearings and mounts are all checked and the speed control too. Then you are given a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement. We’re often asked to deal with a fan worn beyond sensible repair and a humming noise from the fan motor, on roof and wall fans, fan motors and kitchen extract fans.

A callout to a small place like Hatchford goes better when we know what we are looking at: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Hatchford

You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:

  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • The times the site is available
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • A single visit or a regular plan

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Hatchford questions

Can you work in Hatchford outside opening hours?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Hatchford out of hours?

Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Hatchford is within the area we cover. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. If you can, stop cooking until the fan is checked.

Is it worth cleaning the extract while you’re fixing the fan?

The ductwork is a separate job. We will tell you what we see, so you can decide whether to book a TR19 clean.

Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?

We price each job after finding the cause. Repair, parts or a full replacement all cost differently, so call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will arrange a diagnosis.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

It depends on the building. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.

What causes a noisy extract fan?

It can be one of a few things, including bearings, belts, grease and mounts. It’s worth having it diagnosed before it leads to a breakdown.

Are you insured?

Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.

What should go in our maintenance log?

Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.

Honest limits

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
  • A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
  • Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we’re called out for in Hatchford

Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, and an unbalanced impeller shakes and the noise follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A belt-driven fan that squeals
  • A motor that trips out or overheats
  • Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
  • A fan worn beyond sensible repair

Around Hatchford, a failed fan can be reported day or night on our 24/7 line.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures

Our hiring checklist

Different parts, different methods

Roof and wall-mounted fans

Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Corrosion of housings and fixings is common.

Fan controls

Controls are checked as well as the fan itself, because a fan that won’t start isn’t always a failed motor.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hatchford

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

What happens on the day

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Hatchford.

  1. You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
  2. We isolate the fan before touching it.
  3. The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
  4. You get a fixed price for putting it right.
  5. We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.

Before we arrive

  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Ask for a quote

What staff can safely do

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
