Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Make sure every filter is in place and clean
- Save our number for the 24/7 emergency line
- Do not cook with gaps in the filter bank
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know, so it can be looked at before it grows.
A fan that’s starting to make noise is giving you a warning. Booking a check at this stage keeps it a planned job instead of a breakdown at the worst moment.
Extract fan repair in Weavers Down
Across Weavers Down, we deal with fan faults of every kind, from rattling and humming to a fan that has stopped dead. The fault is diagnosed, quoted at a fixed price and put right, or the fan is replaced if repair does not make sense. We’re often asked to deal with a motor that trips out or overheats and a worn or slipping fan belt, on kitchen extract fans, fan motors and fan housings.
Somewhere as small as Weavers Down, a kitchen extract fan might serve a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Questions from Weavers Down
Who inspects food businesses in Weavers Down?
That’s East Hampshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Weavers Down. Keeping the fan serviced is easier than explaining a broken one on inspection day.
Do you work at weekends in Weavers Down?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Weavers Down can fit around your hours. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
Should the fan be cleaned as well as repaired?
Doing both together is often sensible. A full clean takes in the whole extract, including the fan and comes with a TR19 certificate and photo report.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Do you replace extract fans as well as repair them?
We do. A replacement is matched to the system it’s going into, and you get a fixed quote first.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
Most fan jobs take anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault including running the fan afterwards. We’ll fit it around the kitchen’s hours wherever we can.
Does a faulty extract fan always need replacing?
We look at repairing it first. If the fan is past saving, a replacement may be more sensible and we will tell you the reasons.
Why act early in Weavers Down
It can be tempting to turn the fan down to quieten it. That reduces extraction without fixing anything, and the fault carries on developing. Diagnosing the fault properly is the lasting answer. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Common problems we fix in Weavers Down
Some faults are in the controls rather than the fan. Speed controllers, isolators and wiring can all fail so we check the controls before blaming the motor.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A fan shaking on its mountings
- A fan rattling in its housing
- A fan that won’t start at all
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
If you manage a school such as Liphook Church of England Controlled Junior School and the kitchen fan is getting louder, the next break is the time to deal with it.

What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
How we price extract fan repair
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Parking and loading at the site
- How easy every part is to reach
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
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, you get a fixed price before work begins.
How the visit works
Your trading hours come first. 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 job takes anything from an hour or two to a full visit, depending on the fault. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Weavers Down, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- 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 hear what’s wrong and what it will cost, with a fixed quote, before we go ahead.
- We fix or replace the fan, then test it running before we leave.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
