Common questions in Mogador
Do you cover Mogador for emergency fan repairs?
Day or night, a failed fan in Mogador can be reported on our emergency line. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. Let us know whether the fan is silent, noisy or tripping the power.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Mogador?
Kitchens in Mogador are inspected by Reigate and Banstead council’s environmental health officers. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
It depends on the fault, but as a guide it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. We will give you a better idea once we have diagnosed it.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
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.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
That depends on what we find. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic and quote a fixed price for the option you choose.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Extract fan repair in Mogador, done properly
Extract fan repair starts with a diagnosis. A noisy fan might need cleaning, new bearings or a new belt, while a fan that won’t start may have a motor or control fault. We explain the problem, and what it will take, before work begins. If you’re dealing with weak extraction and a smoky kitchen and a whining or grinding extract motor, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Mogador, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What else we do in Mogador
What happens on the day
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Mogador can be planned properly.
- 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.
- We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.
Before we arrive
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Let us know about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Advice
Different parts, different methods
Direct-drive fans
Grease on the impeller unbalances a direct-drive fan quickly. Cleaning it can cure the noise as long as the bearings are still sound.
Motors and bearings
An overheating motor is a warning sign. The cause might be grease restricting the airflow, or the motor itself may be failing.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The number of sites or systems
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The site address and the type of premises
If you need extract fan repair in Mogador, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day.
Why deal with it now?
An overloaded motor is under constant strain. That shortens its life and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Early attention keeps the cost and disruption down. A planned visit to Mogador is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

Extract fan repair in Mogador: local notes
Look up Mogador on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 4 restaurants, cafés and canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Mogador. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. Mogador is about 17 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. Food hygiene inspections in Mogador are the job of Reigate and Banstead council’s environmental health team. Ventilation is part of food hygiene law, which expects it to be suitable and sufficient. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Kingswood Primary School, rather than mid-term.

Landmarks near Mogador
Around Mogador, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Reigate College, Betchworth Quarry and Lime Kilns and The Sportsman pub and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Reigate station, about 1.6 miles south-east. A little further out are Headley Court (3.2 miles north-west) and Reigate Castle (1.7 miles south-east). The countryside around Mogador includes Mercers Lake and Colley Hill.
Common problems we fix in Mogador
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. It builds up on the impeller blades unevenly, so the fan runs out of balance and starts to vibrate and rattle.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- A whining or grinding extract motor
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
- A knocking noise from the extract fan
Hall kitchens near Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God, or anywhere around Mogador, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.
What your quote should include
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Whether the figure could change on the day
When something else is needed
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Faults in the building’s electrical supply, which need an electrician
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Bearings
- Belts and pulleys
- Kitchen extract fans
- Roof and wall fans
- Fan motors
- Fan housings
Looking after it afterwards
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Get a noisy fan checked rather than slowed down
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Keep the grease filters clean and fitted
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know rather than waiting for it to fail.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Changing or cleaning them on time takes load off the motor and helps prevent overheating.
