Common questions in Mayford
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Mayford?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Mayford is within the area we cover. The number to ring is 0345 646 2711. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Do you cover smaller places like Mayford?
Yes, Mayford is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
In many cases, 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.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
That depends on what’s wrong, but most jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. You will know more once we have found the fault.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. We need the work area to ourselves while we’re on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Will you fit a new fan if ours can’t be repaired?
Yes. If repair isn’t sensible, we replace the fan. We check the duct size and the extract the kitchen needs before recommending a unit.
How the job changes from site to site
Fan controls
Supply faults are a job for an electrician. If that’s the cause, we will say so so you know who to call.
Belt-driven fans
A squeal when the fan starts is a classic belt symptom. Belts are checked for wear, tension and alignment and replaced if they’re worn.
When a fan fails in Mayford
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 13 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 5 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Mayford, up to about a mile and a half out. For any of them with a canopy, the extract fan is what keeps the kitchen usable. Mayford, about 25 miles from central London, is within our usual area. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. In Mayford, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Woking council. Under food hygiene rules, a kitchen needs suitable and sufficient ventilation. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
If you cook near Worplesdon station, long trading hours wear fan belts and bearings, so noise and vibration are worth reporting early. School kitchens cannot easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Westfield Primary School, fix a failing fan before term starts.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Honest limits
Extract fan repair cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Somewhere as small as Mayford, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Clear the space around the work

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.

What we’re called out for in Mayford
Kitchen extract fans in Mayford face the same conditions as anywhere else: heat, grease, steam and long running hours. Condensation can corrode parts, and age catches up with every fan in the end.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- A fan that won’t start at all
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near St Mark's Church, or anywhere in Mayford, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Clean or change filters on schedule
Listen to the fan over the next few weeks. If anything changes, let us know, so it can be looked at before it grows.
A 3, 6 or 12-monthly cleaning plan brings us back at set intervals, which means the fan is seen regularly and problems are spotted sooner.
