Up Somborne questions
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Up Somborne out of hours?
Day or night, a failed fan in Up Somborne can be reported on our emergency line. Call 0345 646 2711 and tell us what the fan is doing, or not doing. A photo of the fan’s rating plate helps.
Do you work at weekends in Up Somborne?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Up Somborne keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. A single log for each site works best.
Extract fan repair for kitchens and businesses in Up Somborne
Grease is hard on extract fans. Deposits on the impeller throw it out of balance, which shakes the bearings and mountings. That is why we check the grease whenever we work on a fan and can arrange a TR19® clean of the whole system at the same time. The work covers fan housings, belts and pulleys and bearings, and people most often call us about an extract fan that has stopped working and a worn or slipping fan belt.
A callout to a small place like Up Somborne goes better when we know what we are looking at: a photo of the fan, the details on its label and the access arrangements help us plan.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. The timing of a visit to Up Somborne is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start with the symptoms, such as rattling, humming, slow running or a fan that will not start.
- The fan is isolated and opened up so we can see inside.
- 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
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear loose items from the work area
Ask for a quote
Quotes are quick. 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.
Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Some kitchens run a noisy fan on a lower speed to cut the noise. That reduces extraction without fixing anything while the underlying wear continues. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. With notice, the visit to Up Somborne can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

Fixed quotes for extract fan repair in Up Somborne
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
How the job changes from site to site
Direct-drive fans
Direct-drive fans have the impeller mounted straight on the motor. With no belts to wear, we look at the motor, bearings and impeller.
Belt-driven fans
Squealing at start-up often points to a belt. We check the belt condition, tension and alignment and replaced if they’re worn.
What extract fan repair cannot fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Gas interlock faults that a Gas Safe registered engineer must deal with
- Cooking smells reaching neighbours, which may need odour control
- Wiring and supply faults beyond the fan itself
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Fan housings
- Bearings
- Fan motors
- Roof and wall fans
- Kitchen extract fans
- Belts and pulleys
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Looking after it afterwards
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Avoid lowering the speed to quieten a fault
- Note when the fan trips or cuts out
We run the fan and check it’s steady before we go. We explain the fault and the fix along with anything else that needs watching.
Noise is typically the first sign of a fan problem. Getting it checked now means a planned repair instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
