Extract fan repair for sites in Norney

When it’s something else

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
  • Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
  • Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment

If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Parts of the system we cover

Extract fan repair in Norney

Every fan job begins with finding the fault. 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 any work starts. The work covers roof and wall fans, fan housings and kitchen extract fans, and the jobs we see most are an extract fan that rattles or knocks and an extract that vibrates through the ductwork.

For a fan repair in or near Norney, 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.

We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Different parts, different methods

Fan controls

Where the fault is in the building’s electrical supply, an electrician is needed. If that is the cause, we will say so so you know who to call.

Motors and bearings

The motor and its bearings work hardest. Heat, grease and long running hours all wear them.

What we’re called out for in Norney

Kitchen extract fans in Norney 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.

Look out for these warning signs:

  • A worn or slipping fan belt
  • An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
  • A failed fan that needs a replacement
  • A dead fan motor

Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as St Mary's CofE Voluntary Controlled Infant School, rather than mid-term.

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

What happens on the day

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Somewhere as small as Norney, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
  2. We isolate the fan before touching it.
  3. We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
  4. A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
  5. We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

How to get a quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Common questions in Norney

Who inspects food businesses in Norney?

The local authority for Norney is Guildford council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.

Can you come to Norney after we close?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Norney can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?

It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. We diagnose first and give you a fixed price so there are no surprises.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

How much notice do you need?

For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

What do you do with what you remove?

It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.

Do you provide a certificate or report?

Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.

How we price extract fan repair

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • The size of the system

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Asking for a quote

To speed up the quote, please include:

  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.

Why deal with it now?

Wherever the kitchen is, Norney included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, where a rattle or a whine can be heard beyond the kitchen. Dealing with the fault brings the noise back down before neighbours notice. In a place like Norney, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

Why book with us

  • We diagnose before we treat
  • A fixed price before any work starts
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
  • In business since 2009
