Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
About our extract fan repair in Upper Froyle
Wherever your kitchen is in Upper Froyle, fan work means the extract has to be isolated, so the job is fitted around the kitchen’s hours. We can work in the evening, overnight or at the weekend and there’s a 24/7 emergency line if the fan fails while you’re cooking. If you have a fan that keeps cutting out and weak extraction and a smoky kitchen, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Upper Froyle, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and emergency callout is available 24/7, villages included.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Your questions about extract fan repair in Upper Froyle
Which environmental health team covers Upper Froyle?
Kitchens in Upper Froyle are inspected by East Hampshire council’s environmental health officers. A note of when the fan failed and when it was fixed shows the problem was dealt with.
Is Upper Froyle within the area you cover?
Yes. Upper Froyle is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them together and easy to find.
What will a fan repair or replacement cost?
We can’t price it without knowing the fault. Once we have looked at it, you get a fixed quote for whichever option you choose.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Is it worth cleaning the extract while you are fixing the fan?
Often it makes sense to do both. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
When to call us in Upper Froyle
Bearings wear out with heat and long hours. As they wear, you hear a whine or a rumble, and if they’re left they can seize.
Look out for these warning signs:
- A dead fan motor
- A humming noise from the fan motor
- A fan worn beyond sensible repair
- A fan that keeps cutting out
A fan that rarely runs, like one in a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary of the Assumption or elsewhere in Upper Froyle, can seize between uses.

The process
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes a few hours on site, depending on the fault and the access to the fan. In a small place like Upper Froyle, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We agree a time to attend, out of hours if needed.
- The extract is switched off and the fan opened up.
- We inspect every moving part and the fixings.
- You hear whether repair or replacement makes sense, with a fixed quote.
- The fan is repaired or replaced, then checked running.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Froyle
A noisy fan rarely fixes itself. Bearings that are left to wear can fail suddenly, and that often happens mid-service. Sorting it while it still runs is far easier to plan. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will explain what it covers.

- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- A written report with photos after every visit

How we price extract fan repair
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- The scale of the work
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What extract fan repair looks like in Upper Froyle

Getting the fan running again is the priority.
Holidays are the time to replace a tired kitchen fan at schools such as Eggar's School, rather than mid-term.

When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by extract fan repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
- Faults on the gas side of an interlock system, which need a Gas Safe registered engineer
- Ductwork designed too small for the kitchen’s cooking
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem 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 will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
