Hampshire · Extract fan repair and replacement
Longstock extract fan repair
One call covers extract fan repair in Longstock, from survey to sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A fan rattling in its housing
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
Clean filters help a repaired fan stay that way. The less grease that reaches the fan, the longer its parts last and fewer faults.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and protects the motor.
About our extract fan repair in Longstock
Working on a fan in Longstock means switching the extract off first, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you’re cooking. Typical jobs include vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts and an extract fan that has stopped working, across belts and pulleys, roof and wall fans and bearings.
Rural kitchens often have fans mounted on outside walls or roofs, exposed to the weather. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, 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 affects the quote in Longstock
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
When to call us in Longstock
Kitchen extract fans in Longstock face the same conditions as anywhere else: hot, greasy, damp air for hours on end. Condensation can corrode parts and eventually any fan simply wears out.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A worn or slipping fan belt
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Longstock, can seize between uses.

Extract fans in Longstock
Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Longstock. 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.
If you manage a school such as Test Valley School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

Questions from Longstock
Will you come out to Longstock?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which environmental health team covers Longstock?
In Longstock, it’s Test Valley council that carries out food hygiene inspections. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We do not leave it behind.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
We cannot price it without knowing the fault. After we have checked the fan, we give you a fixed price for whichever option you choose.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?
We do. Where a fan is beyond repair, we replace it with one suited to the duct and the kitchen with a fixed price agreed before we start.
Why act early in Longstock
Left alone, vibration spreads its damage. Fixings work loose and joints in the ductwork can be strained, so a small repair can grow into a bigger one. In a small place like Longstock, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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 they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
How it works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Longstock.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
