About our extract fan repair in West Meon
Grease and fans don’t mix. A coated impeller spins unevenly, which shakes the bearings and mountings. That’s why we check the grease whenever we work on a fan, and a full TR19® clean can be booked alongside. The work covers kitchen extract fans, roof and wall fans and belts and pulleys, and common reasons people get in touch are a belt-driven fan that squeals and a fan that won’t start at all.
In a village or hamlet like West Meon, the kitchens with extract fans are few, wherever there are any. When one fails, the cooking stops, and our 24/7 emergency line covers rural addresses too.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Why it’s worth doing now in West Meon
Some kitchens run a noisy fan on a lower speed to cut the noise. That reduces extraction without fixing anything, and the fault carries on developing. A proper diagnosis in West Meon gets to the real cause. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near West Meon rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes part of a day for most faults, with a return visit if parts have to be ordered. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to West Meon and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We take details of the symptoms and book a time that suits the kitchen.
- We isolate the fan before touching it.
- The fan and its controls are checked to pin down the fault.
- A fixed quote for the repair or replacement follows.
- The work is done and the fan is tested running.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us where we can park and unload

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: 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.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
When a fan fails in West Meon
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of West Meon. Every one of them that cooks under a canopy depends on its extract fan to keep cooking. Food hygiene inspections in West Meon are the job of Winchester City council’s environmental health team. Food hygiene rules expect food premises to have suitable and sufficient ventilation. So a failed fan is worth fixing before the next service, not the next month.

Other services in West Meon
What we’re called out for in West Meon
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.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- An extract that vibrates through the ductwork
- An old fan that needs replacing
- A fan that keeps cutting out
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
Around West Meon, a failed fan can be reported day or night on our 24/7 line.
What your quote should include
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed

- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
Common questions in West Meon
Do you work overnight in West Meon?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in West Meon does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you work in villages like West Meon?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Does a fan repair include cleaning the ductwork?
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.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
Is repair an option before replacing the whole fan?
In many cases, yes. A clean, a new belt or new bearings can bring a fan back and we only recommend replacement when repair doesn’t make sense.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, always. The report is dated and includes photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
How long does an extract fan repair take?
It depends on the fault, but as a guide it takes an hour or two to diagnose, then longer if parts or a new fan are needed. We will give you a better idea once we have diagnosed it.
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Tell us about a new rattle or whine straight away
- Make sure staff know who to call if the fan fails
- Never run the extract with filters missing
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
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.
The fan is part of every full TR19 clean. A clean impeller stays in balance and that means less wear.
How the job changes from site to site
Motors and bearings
Motors and bearings take the most strain in a kitchen extract fan. Heat, grease and long running hours all wear them.
Belt-driven fans
With belts and pulleys, there’s more to wear. That means more to check, but often a simpler repair.
What a clean will not put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- A greasy canopy and duct that a fan repair won’t touch
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
