How we price extract fan repair
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How many systems or sites are involved
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- A few general shots of the system
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We normally come back within one working day.
How we handle extract fan repair in Leigh Park
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping belt; a dead fan can point to the motor or its controls. You hear what we’ve found before any work goes ahead. Typical jobs include an extract fan that has stopped working and an overheating extract motor, across kitchen extract fans, bearings and fan housings.
For a fan repair near Leigh Park, we plan the journey and bring what the job is likely to need, so photos of the fan and its rating plate help.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

What happens if it’s left?
Wherever the kitchen is, Leigh Park included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before it becomes a nuisance. A quieter site near Leigh Park still needs its system looked after.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
When to call us in Leigh Park
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, so the fan runs out of balance and the noise follows.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- A fan shaking on its mountings
For school kitchens, at schools like Riders Infant School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Leigh Park

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Leigh Park and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Extract fans in Leigh Park
The coast is only about 2 miles from Leigh Park. Salt air is hard on fan housings, motors and fixings on roofs and outside walls. Food Standards Agency records list about 44 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 44 takeaways in and around Leigh Park, up to about a mile and a half out. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. Kitchens in Leigh Park get their food hygiene inspections from Havant council. A kitchen with no working extract can fall short of the suitable and sufficient ventilation food hygiene rules expect. That’s one more reason not to keep cooking with a broken fan.
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near St Francis, or anywhere in Leigh Park, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.
Leigh Park is about 1 mile north of Havant, in Hampshire. Wherever you are in the PO9 postcode area, we can carry out extract fan repair at your premises. Across Hampshire, we cover 683 places, Leigh Park among them. Portsmouth is in our area too, around 6 miles away.

Near you in Leigh Park

A little further out are Warblington Castle (1.9 miles south-east) and Havant Museum (1.3 miles south). Open spaces near Leigh Park include Windmill Hill and Southmoor Nature Reserve.
What happens on the day
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Leigh Park.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- 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.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about parking and loading
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 pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Leigh Park: your questions answered
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Leigh Park?
That is Havant council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Leigh Park. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Does the sea air around Leigh Park make a difference to extract fan repair?
It can. Being within about 2 miles of the sea means more corrosion on metalwork in Leigh Park than inland. Corroded fixings and housings are noted on the report so they can be dealt with.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
Often it makes sense to do both. A TR19 clean covers the canopy, plenum, ductwork and fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with pictures, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. Keep it in your maintenance log.
Is there help out of hours when the extract fails?
We run a 24/7 emergency callout for exactly this. We’ll talk it through with you and arrange to attend as quickly as possible.
Why is our extract fan so noisy?
An unbalanced, greasy impeller vibrates, which is a common cause of noise. Worn bearings, belts and loose mounts are others.
