A failed loft extractor fan replaced the same day in St Albans.
The bathroom fan had stopped. We went out that afternoon, confirmed the inline fan in the loft had failed and fitted a new one on the same visit.
The bathroom extractor fan in a St Albans home had stopped working. It was an inline fan up in the loft, so the customer couldn't see what was wrong. They called us on the Monday and wanted it sorted quickly.
