About our extract fan repair in Horseport
Wherever your kitchen is in Horseport, fan work means the extract has to be isolated, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. We can work in the evening, overnight or at the weekend, and a fan that dies mid-service can go straight to our 24/7 line. We’re often asked to deal with a fan shaking on its mountings and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen, across fan motors, bearings and kitchen extract fans.
In a small place like Horseport, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

When a fan fails in Horseport
Food Standards Agency data counts about 13 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 7 takeaways and sandwich shops within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Horseport. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. Kitchens in Horseport get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
Hall kitchens near St Mary's Church, or anywhere around Horseport, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick. If you manage a school such as Fordingbridge Infant School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

FAQs for Horseport
Which environmental health team covers Horseport?
Kitchens in Horseport are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.
Can you come to Horseport after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Horseport keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
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’ll tell you the reasons.
Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?
Doing both together is often sensible. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan, with a certificate and photo report.
Will you fit a new fan if ours can’t be repaired?
We do. A replacement is matched to the system it’s going into, and you get a fixed quote first.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No, not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What the work involves, part by part
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Cleaning it can cure the noise, if the bearings haven’t been damaged.
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. Both are inspected, and cleaning can form part of the repair.

How it works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Visits to a village like Horseport are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear the space around the work
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
Related advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
What happens if it’s left?
An overloaded motor is under constant strain. That shortens its life, and when it finally fails, it may take other parts with it. Catching it early keeps the repair small. Planning a trip to Horseport ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.

Take a look at what affects the cost or our accreditations and certificates.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The number of sites or systems
- The condition we find in the survey
- How big the system is
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before we start.
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
- Don’t cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know rather than waiting for it to fail.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Left for months, they can damage the motor or bearings so early attention pays.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
