Extract fan repair in Horsebridge, done properly
Think of it as a check-up for the fan: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. The aim is steady, quiet extraction and a clear explanation of what was done. If you’re dealing with a knocking noise from the extract fan and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, we can put it right.
A callout to a small place like Horsebridge goes better when we know what we’re looking at: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What the work involves, part by part
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. We check both, and cleaning can form part of the repair.
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Sometimes a clean is all it needs, if the bearings haven’t been damaged.

Do you need extract fan repair in Horsebridge?
Bearings wear out with heat and long hours. As they wear, you hear a whine or a rumble, and if they’re left they can seize.
Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as King's Somborne Church of England Primary School, rather than mid-term.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning does not 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.
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. Leave those to us.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
What happens if it’s left?
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. That reduces extraction without fixing anything, and the fault carries on developing. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Horsebridge rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work 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 Horsebridge and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, 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 so you know the cost before we start.

A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St James or elsewhere in Horsebridge, can seize between uses.

FAQs for Horsebridge
Will you come out to Horsebridge?
Yes, Horsebridge is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work in Horsebridge outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Horsebridge does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
Doing both together is often sensible. A TR19 clean covers the canopy, plenum, ductwork and fan, with a certificate and photo report.
Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?
We can. We fit replacement fans as well as repairing old ones and we’ll talk you through what’s involved.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. We diagnose first and give you a fixed price so there are no surprises.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we will talk you through the next steps.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
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.
Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Clean or change filters on schedule
- Do not wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. Less grease on the impeller means less wear and the quieter it runs.
A fan that’s starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Booking a check at this stage keeps it a planned job instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
