Extract fan repair for sites in Sarisbury

About our extract fan repair in Sarisbury

We treat a failing fan much like a patient: listen to it, diagnose the fault, then treat it. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a clear explanation of what was done. The work covers roof and wall fans, fan housings and fan motors, and common reasons people get in touch are poor airflow at the canopy and a fan that keeps cutting out.

Kitchens around a smaller place like Sarisbury often have fans fitted to a wall or roof years ago. When an older fan fails, replacing it can be the better answer.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Sarisbury

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.

What a clean will not put right

Extract fan repair can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It does not solve:

  • Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
  • Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
  • An extract system that was undersized from the start

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on in Sarisbury

  • Fan housings
  • Roof and wall fans
  • Kitchen extract fans
  • Belts and pulleys
  • Bearings
  • Fan motors

What happens if it’s left?

Weak extraction leaves heat, smoke and fumes in the kitchen. Staff work in hotter, steamier air, and more grease settles where it shouldn’t. A quieter site near Sarisbury still needs its system looked after.

Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
  • Fixed quotes from a survey or pictures
  • Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009
  • Photo reports with every job

Keeping the system healthy

Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
  • Don’t turn the fan down to hide a noise
  • Report new noises from the fan early
  • Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan

We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. We explain the fault and the fix, and anything else we noticed is pointed out.

Clogged filters make the fan strain. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and helps prevent overheating.

Extract fans in Sarisbury

Sea air reaches Sarisbury, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Motor mounts, bolts and housings on outdoor fans corrode faster close to the coast. The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 43 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 10 takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Sarisbury. Wherever they cook under a canopy, a failed extract fan stops the kitchen. It’s Fareham council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Sarisbury. 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 cook near Swanwick station, long trading hours wear fan belts and bearings, so noise and vibration are worth reporting early. School kitchens can’t easily serve lunch without extraction, so if you look after one at a school like Sarisbury Church of England Junior School, fix a failing fan before term starts.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Sarisbury

Can you work in Sarisbury outside opening hours?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.

Which council inspects kitchens in Sarisbury?

Food hygiene inspections in Sarisbury are carried out by Fareham council. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.

What causes a noisy extract fan?

Grease on the blades throws the fan out of balance and that is one of the most common reasons. Bearings, belts and mountings can also be to blame.

Which records should we keep?

Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.

Common problems we fix in Sarisbury

In Sarisbury, as anywhere, long cooking days mean long hours for the fan. Belts on a belt-driven fan stretch and wear and a slipping belt means slower fan speed and weaker extraction.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • A fan shaking on its mountings
  • An overheating extract motor
  • An extract fan that has stopped working
  • A worn or slipping fan belt

Hall kitchens near Church of St Paul, or anywhere around Sarisbury, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • Whether VAT is included

Questions to ask before booking

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

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 we do, step by step

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. Everything the job in Sarisbury needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.

  1. First, you tell us the symptoms: noise, shaking, weak extraction or no power.
  2. With the fan safely isolated, we open it up for a proper look.
  3. Each part is checked in turn: motor, bearings, drive, impeller and fixings.
  4. We explain the fault and give you a fixed price for the fix.
  5. The repair or replacement is carried out and the fan is run and checked.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
