Martin questions
Which council inspects kitchens in Martin?
Food hygiene inspections in Martin are carried out by New Forest council. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Can you come to Martin after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Martin keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?
We cannot price it without knowing the fault. Once we’ve looked at it, you get a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Normally not. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits to keep things running.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
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 and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them together and easy to find.
Extract fan repair in Martin, done properly
The extract fan is what pulls smoke, heat and steam out of the kitchen. When it starts to rattle, hum or slow down, the kitchen gets hot and smoky very quickly. We find out why and put it right with a repair or a replacement. The work covers fan housings, roof and wall fans and kitchen extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a worn or slipping fan belt and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen.
In a small place like Martin, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. Weather and grease together wear out motors and bearings.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
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.
Different parts, different methods
Belt-driven fans
A squeal when the fan starts is a classic belt symptom. We check the belt condition, tension and alignment and renew them where necessary.
Fan controls
Controls are checked as well as the fan itself, because a fan that won’t start is not always a failed motor.
Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what extract fan repair won’t do:
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Bearings
- Kitchen extract fans
- Roof and wall fans
- Belts and pulleys
- Fan motors
- Fan housings
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

How we price extract fan repair
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll usually have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Do you need extract fan repair in Martin?
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. It builds up on the impeller blades unevenly, and an unbalanced impeller shakes and the noise follows.
What we’re most often called out for:
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- A motor that trips out or overheats
- A squealing belt on start-up
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Martin, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
How it works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the extract fan repair, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. In a small place like Martin, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
- The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
How to get a quote
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
