Extract fan repair in Ludgershall
Working on a fan in Ludgershall means switching the extract off first, so we plan it around your service. 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. The work covers roof and wall fans, fan housings and bearings, and common reasons people get in touch are a fan shaking on its mountings and a whining or grinding extract motor.
Kitchens around a smaller place like Ludgershall often have fans fitted to a wall or roof years ago. An older fan that fails may be better replaced than repaired, and we’ll explain the options.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Questions from Ludgershall
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Ludgershall?
Day or night, a failed fan in Ludgershall can be reported on our emergency line. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Which environmental health team covers Ludgershall?
That is Test Valley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Ludgershall. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, showing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we are there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Who is the responsible person?
That depends on who controls the premises. 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.
Where does the waste go?
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.
Can you repair a fan rather than replace it?
Often, yes. A clean, a new belt or new bearings can bring a fan back and we only recommend replacement when repair doesn’t make sense.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

What extract fan repair looks like in Ludgershall
Food hygiene inspections in Ludgershall are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. 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.
For school kitchens, at schools like Ludgershall Castle Primary School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St James or elsewhere in Ludgershall, an extract fan that rarely runs can seize or fail when it’s needed.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep the area around the fan controls clear
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know, so it can be looked at before it grows.
Regular TR19 cleaning includes the extract fan. Keeping grease off the impeller is one of the simplest ways to protect it and that means less wear.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Ludgershall and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Leave it or put it right?
Left alone, vibration spreads its damage. It loosens fixings, strains duct connections and wears the housing and the eventual repair is larger. Light use slows the build-up but does not stop it.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Noise from an outside fan can carry beyond the kitchen. Loose fixings and worn mounts are often the cause.
Belt-driven fans
Belt drives have more moving parts than direct-drive fans. That means more to check, but often a simpler repair.
What a clean won’t put right
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Ludgershall
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The scale of the work
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
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 make a difference.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- A few general shots of the system
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
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 a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Everything the job in Ludgershall needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
