About our extract fan repair in Tadley
Every fan job begins with finding the fault. Noise can come from grease on the impeller, worn bearings or a slipping belt, while a fan that will not start may have a motor or control fault. You hear what we’ve found before any work goes ahead. If you have weak extraction and a smoky kitchen and an overheating extract motor, we can put it right.
A noisy fan, weak extraction or a kitchen that gets hot and smoky are the usual warning signs. Catching those signs early in Tadley means the repair can be planned around service.
We have 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.

Different parts, different methods
Roof and wall-mounted fans
An external fan’s rattle can be heard outside. It’s often down to loose mounts or worn bearings.
Motors and bearings
Rumbling and grinding typically come from the bearings. We diagnose whether it’s the bearings or the motor itself and then recommend the fix.
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. Three things shape a visit in Tadley: when you are closed, where we can park and how we get to the system.
- We ask what the fan is doing, from noise and vibration to a full stop.
- Power to the fan is isolated before we open the housing.
- The impeller, bearings, belts or drive, motor and mounts are all inspected.
- You get our diagnosis and a fixed quote to repair or replace.
- We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.

When something else is needed
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- A system that needs redesigning rather than repairing
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Belts and pulleys
- Kitchen extract fans
- Roof and wall fans
- Fan motors
- Fan housings
- Bearings
Why act early in Tadley
In kitchens with an interlocked gas supply, no extract can mean no cooking. Without extraction, the heat and fumes build up fast, so a failing fan is worth dealing with early. A fresh certificate on file is the best thing to have when someone asks to see your records.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.
Why Tadley businesses choose us
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- In business since 2009
- Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
- Fully insured
What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Do not wait for a noisy fan to stop
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Keep all filters fitted while cooking
Once we are done, the extract is back in service. We clear up after ourselves and talk you through what we found.
A fan that’s starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Getting it checked now means a planned repair instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
Tadley: your questions answered
Is there an emergency callout for extract fans in Tadley?
Day or night, a failed fan in Tadley can be reported on our emergency line. Ring 0345 646 2711 at any hour and describe the fault. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.
Which council inspects kitchens in Tadley?
That’s Basingstoke and Deane council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Tadley. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
A fan repair on its own doesn’t include the ductwork. We’ll point out grease where we find it, so you can decide whether to book a TR19 clean.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Which records should we keep?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
When to call us in Tadley
Over the years, mountings loosen and rubber mounts break down. Then every vibration is passed into the duct and the building, which is where knocking and rattling often come from.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- An extract fan that has stopped working
- A motor that trips out or overheats
- A squealing belt on start-up
- An old fan that needs replacing
Hall kitchens near Saint Mary's Church, or anywhere around Tadley, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Proof of insurance
- Whether the figure could change on the day
Extract fan repair around Tadley
There are about 9 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 8 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Tadley, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. A kitchen with a dead extract fan gets hot and smoky fast, and kitchens like these feel it at once. At about 46 miles from central London, Tadley sits well inside the area we cover. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. It’s Basingstoke and Deane council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Tadley.
