Rowlands Castle questions
Is Rowlands Castle within the area you cover?
Yes, Rowlands Castle is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Rowlands Castle be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Rowlands Castle can fit around your hours. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Will you fit a new fan if ours cannot be repaired?
Yes, when repair doesn’t make sense. The replacement has to suit the ductwork and the cooking so we confirm that first.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
How much does an extract fan repair cost?
It depends on the fault, the parts and the access. After diagnosing, you get a fixed quote before any work starts.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
How long will the fan be out of action?
It depends on the fault, but most jobs take part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. You’ll know more once we have found the fault.
Extract fan repair in Rowlands Castle
Working on a fan in Rowlands Castle means switching the extract off first, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible, and a fan that dies mid-service can go straight to our 24/7 line. The work covers roof and wall fans, fan motors and belts and pulleys, and common reasons people get in touch are a squealing belt on start-up and a failed fan that needs a replacement.
For a fan repair near Rowlands Castle, we plan the journey and bring what the job is likely to need, so photos of the fan and its rating plate help.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What extract fan repair looks like in Rowlands Castle
At about 3 miles from the coast, Rowlands Castle is close enough for sea air to matter. Motor mounts, bolts and housings on outdoor fans corrode faster close to the coast. Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Rowlands Castle. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. In Rowlands Castle, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from East Hampshire council. Food premises are expected to have suitable and sufficient ventilation under food hygiene rules. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.
If you manage a school such as Havant Academy and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. Occasional-use kitchens, such as a hall kitchen near The Church on the Green or elsewhere in Rowlands Castle, are where a stiff or seized fan can turn up. If you run a kitchen close to Rowlands Castle station and the extract fan is getting noisy, a planned repair after closing beats a breakdown at the rush.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What affects the quote in Rowlands Castle
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- What state the system is in
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How easy every part is to reach
The cost 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.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any previous report or certificate
If you need extract fan repair in Rowlands Castle, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. For a place like Rowlands Castle, we load the van from the survey notes so the work can be done in one visit where possible.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- We isolate the extract and open the fan housing.
- We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- We complete the work and check the fan runs smoothly.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
How to get a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Related advice
What the work involves, part by part
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Rust on fixings and housings is a frequent find.
Impellers and housings
Grease settles inside the fan housing as well as on the blades. We check both, and cleaning can form part of the repair.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Rowlands Castle
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
- Report new noises from the fan early
- Keep a record of any trips or stoppages
- Keep the fan on a planned cleaning cycle
Listen to the fan over the next few weeks. If anything changes, let us know rather than waiting for it to fail.
A slipping belt or a loose mount is a small job. Ignored, they can lead to bigger failures so early attention pays.
What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
