How it works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Trotton, let us know and we will plan around it.
- A visit is booked, in the evening or overnight if that suits.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
- We explain the options and quote a fixed price.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.

Extract fan repair in Trotton, done properly
The extract fan is what pulls smoke, heat and steam out of the kitchen. When it starts to rattle, hum or slow down, the cooking area soon fills with heat and fumes. We find out why and put it right with a repair or a replacement. We are often asked to deal with a humming noise from the fan motor and a fan that keeps cutting out, across fan housings, bearings and kitchen extract fans.
A callout to a small place like Trotton goes better when we know what we’re looking at: pictures of the fan, its rating plate and how to reach it all help.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Trotton
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Places near Trotton
What else we do in Trotton
How the job changes from site to site
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Fans outside are exposed to rain and condensation. Corrosion of housings and fixings is common.
Impellers and housings
The impeller is the bladed wheel that moves the air. Grease on it throws it out of balance and make it shake.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Fan motors
- Fan housings
- Bearings
- Roof and wall fans
- Belts and pulleys
- Kitchen extract fans
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Keep the emergency number where staff can see it
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
If the fan had grease on it, the rest of the system almost certainly does too. We can book a TR19® clean of the whole extract, with a certificate and photo report.
When filters block, the fan works harder. Keeping filters clean eases the strain and helps prevent overheating.
What affects the cost of extract fan repair
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The size of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- What state the system is in
- Site rules, permits and inductions
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Trotton questions
Do you work at weekends in Trotton?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you cover smaller places like Trotton?
Yes. Trotton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
The price depends on the diagnosis. Once we have looked at it, you get a fixed quote for the repair or the replacement.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
