Winchfield Hurst questions
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Winchfield Hurst?
Food hygiene inspections in Winchfield Hurst are carried out by Hart council. If the extract fan has failed, it’s worth having the repair booked, and the details to hand, before an officer visits.
Can you come out to a failed extract fan in Winchfield Hurst out of hours?
Day or night, a failed fan in Winchfield Hurst can be reported on our emergency line. Ring 0345 646 2711 at any hour and describe the fault. Tell us where the fan is and how to reach it.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
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 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.

What extract fan repair cannot fix
Extract fan repair cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It doesn’t solve:
- An extract system that was undersized from the start
- Problems with the gas supply or its interlock valve
- Odour complaints that need filtration rather than a fan repair
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Bearings
- Roof and wall fans
- Belts and pulleys
- Fan motors
- Kitchen extract fans
- Fan housings
How we price extract fan repair
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How big the system is
- How easy every part is to reach
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
Signs you need extract fan repair in Winchfield Hurst
Not every problem is mechanical. A failed speed controller or a wiring fault can stop a fan, and a fan that will not start isn’t always a dead motor.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Weak extraction and a smoky kitchen
- A worn or slipping fan belt
- An extract fan that rattles or knocks
- An overheating extract motor
Hall kitchens near Church of St Mary the Virgin, or anywhere around Winchfield Hurst, often use their fans only now and then, and an idle fan can stick.
Before you book anyone
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Proof of insurance
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a few hours for most repairs, longer for a full fan replacement. For a village or hamlet like Winchfield Hurst, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
Ask for a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Write down when the fan misbehaves
- Keep access to the fan controls unobstructed
- Do not turn the fan down to hide a noise
- Book regular TR19 cleaning, which includes the fan
Keep an ear on the fan after the repair. If anything changes, let us know rather than waiting for it to fail.
Regular TR19 cleaning includes the extract fan. Keeping grease off the impeller is one of the simplest ways to protect it, so planned cleaning helps the fan last.

What else we do in Winchfield Hurst
What the work involves, part by part
Belt-driven fans
In a belt-driven fan, the motor drives the impeller by belt. Worn belts squeal and slow the fan down, so we check the pulleys and bearings as well.
Roof and wall-mounted fans
Many kitchen extract fans sit on a roof or an outside wall. How easy the fan is to reach shapes the job, so we ask about it early.
Why it’s worth doing now in Winchfield Hurst
A struggling motor runs hotter and works harder. That shortens its life and a burnt-out motor is a bigger job than a worn belt. Early attention keeps the cost and disruption down. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Winchfield Hurst is calmer for everyone.
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 play a part.
