Extract fan repair in South Weirs, done properly

We treat a failing fan much like a patient: we hear the symptoms, find the cause and put it right. What you want back is a fan that runs smoothly and a clear explanation of what was done. If you have a fan shaking on its mountings and an old fan that needs replacing, we can put it right.

In a small place like South Weirs, fans are often on an outside wall or roof, open to wind and rain. That, with the grease, is hard on motors and bearings.

We’ve been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Multi-site and managed buildings

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. In a small place like South Weirs, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.

  1. You describe the fault and we arrange a visit.
  2. We isolate the fan before touching it.
  3. The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
  4. You get a fixed price for putting it right.
  5. We fix the fault and run the fan to check it.

How to prepare

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Clear the space around the work

How we price extract fan repair

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • Whether several sites go on one quote

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

Asking for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • The site address and the type of premises

For extract fan repair in South Weirs, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send pictures or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.

Questions from South Weirs

Which environmental health team covers South Weirs?

In South Weirs, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.

Can you come to South Weirs after we close?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in South Weirs keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Can you tell me the price of a fan repair?

We price each job after finding the cause. Repair, parts or a full replacement all cost differently so the first step is a diagnosis.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.

What paperwork should we keep on file?

The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them together and easy to find.

What happens to the waste?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.

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 quote is based on that.

Will we have to shut during the visit?

Not typically. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.

Why it’s worth doing now in South Weirs

Weak extraction leaves heat, smoke and fumes in the kitchen. The kitchen becomes an uncomfortable place to work and grease has more chance to settle on surfaces and in the duct. If the system at a site near South Weirs fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

Why us?

  • We diagnose before we treat
  • Fixed quotes, usually within one working day
  • Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover

Extract fan repair in South Weirs: local notes

There are about 18 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of South Weirs, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Kitchens in South Weirs get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. A kitchen without a working fan has a problem to fix quickly.

A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St Saviour or elsewhere in South Weirs, can seize between uses. If you manage a school such as Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it. If you run a café or takeaway near Brockenhurst station, a failed fan in the middle of service is exactly what our 24/7 emergency line is for.

What extract fan repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
  • Smells from the discharge that need odour control equipment
  • Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

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

What the work involves, part by part

Motors and bearings

Motors and bearings take the most strain in a kitchen extract fan. Heat, grease and long running hours all wear them.

Belt-driven fans

A squeal when the fan starts is a classic belt symptom. Belts are checked for wear, tension and alignment and replaced if they’re worn.

Aftercare tips

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Never run the extract with filters missing
  • Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
  • Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
  • Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed

If the fan had grease on it, the rest of the system almost certainly does too. A full TR19® clean deals with the canopy, ductwork and fan together, with a certificate and photo report.

A 3, 6 or 12-monthly cleaning plan brings us back at set intervals, which means the fan is seen regularly and wear is caught earlier.
