Extract fan repair in Peel Common, done properly
Kitchens in Peel Common call us about extract fans and motors that are noisy, slow or dead, we diagnose the fault and send you a fixed quote to repair or replace it. For a fan that fails during service, there’s a 24/7 emergency callout. Typical jobs include an extract that vibrates through the ductwork and a fan running too slowly to clear the kitchen, across fan motors, fan housings and roof and wall fans.
In a small place like Peel Common, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. Weather and grease together wear out motors and bearings.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Peel Common
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Peel Common and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
Different parts, different methods
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Noise from an outside fan can carry beyond the kitchen. Loose fixings and worn mounts are often the cause.
Motors and bearings
Motors and bearings take the most strain in a kitchen extract fan. Heat, grease and long running hours all wear them.
What extract fan repair looks like in Peel Common
The coast is only about 2 miles from Peel Common. Motor mounts, bolts and housings on outdoor fans corrode faster close to the coast. There are about 37 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 21 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Peel Common, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. In Peel Common, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Gosport council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. That makes a fan repair urgent rather than something to put off.
If you look after a church or hall kitchen near Peel Common Mission Church, or anywhere in Peel Common, test the extract fan before a big event rather than on the day.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Peel Common
Do you cover Peel Common for emergency fan repairs?
Our emergency line runs 24/7, and Peel Common is within the area we cover. Use 0345 646 2711, our emergency number, at any time. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Who inspects food businesses in Peel Common?
In Peel Common, it’s Gosport council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspections are risk-based, so a visit can come at any time, including the week a fan stops.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Each report and certificate we give you, kept together in your maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. Each visit ends with a written report and photos, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
Not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. We diagnose first and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we are there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
- Make sure the fan is cleaned with the rest of the system
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
Once we are done, the extract is back in service. We leave the area tidy and talk you through what we found.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and helps prevent overheating.
What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Common problems we fix in Peel Common
Blocked filters and greasy ducts make the fan work harder. A motor that strains runs hot, trips out or eventually burns out.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- An overheating extract motor
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- Vibration spreading from the fan into the ducts
For school kitchens, at schools like Peel Common Junior School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.
What to look for in a quote
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- What insurance they carry
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Peel Common.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- Bearings, drive, impeller, motor and mounts are inspected.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Preparing for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Why it’s worth doing now in Peel Common
Weak extraction leaves heat, smoke and fumes in the kitchen. The kitchen becomes an uncomfortable place to work, and more grease settles where it shouldn’t. In a place like Peel Common, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
