How we do it
Common faults include worn fan bearings, failed capacitors and motors, condensate leaks, blocked filters, crushed or disconnected ducts, broken controls and humidity sensors that never switch the fan on. Sometimes repair is not worth it, and a modern replacement is cheaper to run; we will say so. For homes, a visit covers fans, PIV and MVHR.
Home repairs
Fans, PIV units and MVHR systems.
Commercial repairs
Extract fans, heat recovery units and AHUs.
Kitchen extract fans
Fan motors, belts and controls on canopy systems.

Rules 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 about ventilation repairs and fault finding in Derbyshire
Which towns in Derbyshire do you cover?
All of Derbyshire, including Swadlincote, Staveley, Belper, Heanor and Derby. If your town is not listed, send the postcode and we will confirm.
Is it worth repairing an old extractor fan?
Usually not for a basic bathroom fan, because a new fan costs little more than the repair. MVHR, PIV and commercial fans are often worth repairing.
Why is my extractor fan humming but not spinning?
A humming fan that does not spin often has a failed capacitor, seized bearing or obstruction. It should be switched off until repaired.
Are prices different in Derbyshire?
Our guide prices are adjusted by region. In Derbyshire we use East Midlands rates, so home repair or fault-finding visit, first hour (parts extra) is typically £95 to £160 inc VAT per visit.
Is the survey free in Derbyshire?
This is a charged visit because it is servicing, testing or repair work. We tell you the cost before booking. Surveys for new installations on the UK mainland are free.
