Extract fan repair and replacement in South Gorley, Hampshire
Extract fan repair for South Gorley, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A belt-driven fan that squeals
- A failed fan that needs a replacement
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Do not wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Make sure the isolator and controls are easy to reach
Grease on the fan normally means grease in the duct as well. A full TR19® clean deals with the canopy, ductwork and fan together and you get a TR19 certificate and photo report afterwards.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. A clean impeller stays in balance and that means less wear.
Extract fan repair in South Gorley, done properly
If an extract fan in South Gorley is struggling or has stopped, 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. The work covers kitchen extract fans, fan motors and roof and wall fans, and common reasons people get in touch are a worn or slipping fan belt and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen.
In a village or hamlet like South Gorley, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. When one fails, the cooking stops, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

When to call us in South Gorley
Grease that gets past the filters ends up on the fan. Deposits gather on the blades, never quite evenly, and an unbalanced impeller shakes and starts to vibrate and rattle.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- A fan that whines, hums or grinds
- An extract fan that has stopped working
For school kitchens, at schools like Hyde Church of England Primary School for example, a planned fan repair in the holidays avoids losing lunches in term time.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-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 an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to South Gorley can be planned properly.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- On site, the fan is safely isolated.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- You get a fixed price for putting it right.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Get a fixed quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
Advice
FAQs for South Gorley
Is South Gorley within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and South Gorley is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work in South Gorley outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in South Gorley keeps running as normal. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
It depends on the building. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, facilities manager or managing agent.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
A repair deals with the fan, not the grease in the rest of the system. If there’s grease on the fan, a full TR19® clean is worth booking, and we can arrange both.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not normally. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
How long will the fan be out of action?
As a guide, it takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. If parts have to be ordered, we will tell you how long that’s likely to be.
How we price extract fan repair
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- The times the site is available
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.
What to send for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
When it’s something else
Extract fan repair can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Grease build-up in the rest of the extract system
- Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Fan motors
- Roof and wall fans
- Belts and pulleys
- Bearings
- Kitchen extract fans
- Fan housings
What else we do in South Gorley
Different parts, different methods
Motors and bearings
A grinding or rumbling noise often means worn bearings. We diagnose whether it’s the bearings or the motor itself and then recommend the fix.
Fan controls
Speed controllers and isolators sit between the supply and the fan. When they fail, the fan may not start or may run at the wrong speed.
What happens if it’s left?
Wherever the kitchen is, South Gorley included, the fan often sits on an outside wall or roof, so its noise does not stay in the kitchen. Fixing the cause quietens it down before it becomes a nuisance. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
