How we handle extract fan repair in Michelmersh
Across Michelmersh, we deal with fan faults of every kind, from rattling and humming to a fan that has stopped dead. The fault is diagnosed, quoted at a fixed price and put right, or the fan is replaced if repair doesn’t make sense. We are often asked to deal with a motor that trips out or overheats and an old fan that needs replacing, across bearings, belts and pulleys and kitchen extract fans.
For a fan repair in or near Michelmersh, the more you tell us about the fan, the better the first visit: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Why act early in Michelmersh
Some kitchens run a noisy fan on a lower speed to cut the noise. It hides the symptom and weakens the extract, and the fault carries on developing. A proper diagnosis in Michelmersh gets to the real cause. A planned visit to Michelmersh is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
When to call us in Michelmersh
When filters clog and ducts fill with grease, the fan has to strain. An overworked motor overheats, trips out or eventually burns out.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- A fan rattling in its housing
Kitchens in Michelmersh can call our 24/7 emergency line whenever an extract fan stops.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.

It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote so there are no surprises.
How it works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. In a small place like Michelmersh, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that won’t start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- You hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Ask for a quote
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Michelmersh
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The scale of the work
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How easy every part is to reach
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Problems your staff have spotted
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Different parts, different methods
Belt-driven fans
Squealing at start-up often points to a belt. Belts are checked for wear, tension and alignment and renew them where needed.
Fan controls
Where the fault is in the building’s electrical supply, an electrician is needed. If that’s the cause, we’ll say so and explain what we found.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
