Our canopy cleaning service in West Sussex

We have been cleaning kitchen canopies since we started trading in 2009. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we are fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are often asked to deal with poor capture at the hood and a canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection, on wall canopies, grease gutters and baffle filters.

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several.

We look at the canopy, filters and troughs first.
Once the kitchen has closed, the cooking line is cooled and sheeted.
We lift out the filters and scrape the plenum and housing.
The canopy shell, seams, troughs and gutters are degreased inside and out.
We put the filters back, tidy up and photograph the finished canopy.

Around Crawley

We work in commercial kitchens and buildings around Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony, St Wilfrid's Catholic School and Tilgate Park, among other places. You’ll also find The George Hotel (less than half a mile north), Three Bridges Junior School (less than half a mile south-east) and St Francis of Assisi Catholic Primary School (within half a mile south-east). Crawley has its own railway station: Crawley station. Nearby you’ll also find Crawley Hospital (0.5 miles north-west) and County Mall (under half a mile north-east). Not far away are Tilgate Lake.

Canopy cleaning around West Sussex

In West Sussex, a busy kitchen in a place such as Crawley, Horsham and Worthing and a quiet village kitchen need very different cleaning intervals. The right interval comes from hours of use and grease readings.

Across London and the South East, we work evenings, overnight and weekends, so sites across West Sussex don’t have to lose a day. Coastal kitchens in West Sussex often have their busiest months in the summer, so cleaning is often best booked before or after the peak season.

Crawley: Term dates shape school work: for a school like Three Bridges Junior School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Friary Church of St Francis and St Anthony or elsewhere in Crawley, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

What the work involves, part by part

Pub and hotel kitchens

A hotel or pub kitchen can rarely close for long. We clean the canopy overnight or between services so the kitchen keeps trading.

Plenums and filter housings

The rails and channels that hold the filters collect grease. We clean them so the filters sit tight and leave no gaps.

What happens if it’s left?

Grease dripping from the hood can fall onto food, pans and worktops. It’s a food hygiene concern as much as a fire concern, and environmental health officers look at the cleanliness of equipment, extraction included.

Common problems we fix in West Sussex

Air straight off the range hits the canopy first. Grease from the vapour lands on the canopy’s inner surfaces, its joints and its filters before what gets through reaches the plenum.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

Poor capture at the hood
Heavy deposits behind the grease filters
Wet, greasy drips from the hood
Overflowing grease troughs and gutters

Multi-site and managed buildings

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across West Sussex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

Questions from West Sussex

Do you look at the system first?

Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.

What should I send you?

Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.

What paperwork do I get after a canopy clean?

You get a photo report with before and after pictures. Full system cleans also come with a TR19 certificate.

How do you protect the area?

By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.

Why is my canopy dripping grease?

A canopy only holds so much grease. When the gutters fill, it overflows onto the range, often mixed with condensation. Cleaning removes the cause.

When do you clean the canopy?

Out-of-hours cleans are how we work, at night, early in the morning or at weekends. We leave it clean and ready for the next service.

How much does canopy cleaning cost?

The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.
