Extractor fan repair in Park Gate
For repair and replacement of kitchen extract fans, fan motors and worn fan parts in Park Gate, one call is all it takes: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, ISO 9001 and fully insured.
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- Poor airflow at the canopy
- A humming noise from the fan motor
Common problems we fix in Park Gate
Fan bearings do not last for ever, especially in a hot, greasy airstream. As they wear, you hear a whine or a rumble, and if they’re left they can seize.
Clients normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- A fan that will not start at all
- A fan rattling in its housing
If you run a kitchen close to Swanwick station and the extract fan is getting noisy, a planned repair after closing beats a breakdown at the rush.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
Where parts need ordering, we explain what that means for the kitchen until we return. We then come back and fit them at a time that suits your service.
Small faults, like a worn belt, are quick to fix. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures so early attention pays.
Extract fans in Park Gate
Sea air reaches Park Gate, which sits within about 3 miles of the coast. Rust and grease together wear a fan out sooner, and coastal air speeds up the rust. Food Standards Agency records list about 50 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 13 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Park Gate, up to about a mile and a half out. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. It’s Fareham council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Park Gate. Ventilation is part of food hygiene law, which expects it to be suitable and sufficient. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.
School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Park Gate Primary School, fix a failing fan before term starts. Hall kitchens near St Margaret Mary, or anywhere around Park Gate, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.

FAQs for Park Gate
Who inspects food businesses in Park Gate?
Kitchens in Park Gate are inspected by Fareham council’s environmental health officers. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Do you work in villages like Park Gate?
Yes. Park Gate is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
That depends on what we find. We diagnose first and tell you whether a repair is realistic, then send you a fixed quote.
Who do we call if the fan stops in the middle of cooking?
You can reach our emergency line day or night. Cooking without working extraction is not sensible, and we’ll aim to get it going again.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what extract fan repair won’t do:
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Parts of the system we cover

How the visit 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 before work begins, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Park Gate.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- We diagnose the fault, checking the controls as well as the fan.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Getting a quote
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form 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.

How we price extract fan repair
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- The scale of the work
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- A single visit or a regular plan
Working hours, access and the scale of the site 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
What to send for a quote:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Need a price for extract fan repair? Please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with a few details about the site. We will talk you through the work and give you a fixed quote before anything is booked.
What happens if it’s left?
Where the cooking gas supply is interlocked with the extract, a failed fan can stop the kitchen cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
