If the bathroom mirror in your Chorley home stays steamed up, the fan probably is not moving enough air.
Whether the property is in the middle of Chorley or one of the villages around it, the process is the same: a look at the building, a written price, then fitting and testing on the agreed day.

What the work involves
For England, Approved Document F gives minimum intermittent extract rates: 15 litres a second for a bathroom, 30 for a kitchen with a cooker hood (60 without one), 30 for a utility room and 6 for a WC. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own rules, which we follow where the job is.
New fan through an outside wall
Core drilled, sleeved, wired from a fused spur and sealed outside.
Ducted to outside through the loft
Insulated duct to a roof, ridge or soffit outlet so warm moist air does not condense in the loft.

Rules that apply in England
In England, ventilation is covered by Part F of the Building Regulations and its guidance, Approved Document F (2021 edition). For homes, it sets minimum extract rates such as 15 litres a second for a bathroom and 30 or 60 for a kitchen, and expects mechanical systems to be airflow-tested.
Questions from Chorley
What is the price of new extractor fans in Chorley?
Guide prices for Chorley use North West rates: like-for-like extractor fan replacement (existing duct and wiring) is typically £165 to £280 inc VAT per fan. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
Should I get a fan with a humidity sensor?
A humidistat fan switches on when the air gets damp and runs until it clears, which suits family bathrooms and rentals where people forget the switch. A continuous-running fan is another good option.
Do you need building regulations for a new extractor fan?
Fitting or replacing an extractor fan has to meet the ventilation and electrical rules, and certain electrical work is notifiable. We do the work to the current standards. Electrical work that is notifiable is certified by a registered electrician, and you get a copy of the certificate and our airflow readings.
Is the survey free in Chorley?
For new installations on the UK mainland, yes. The survey is free and the quote that follows is fixed and in writing. Servicing, testing and repair visits are charged, and we confirm the cost before booking.
