How we handle canopy cleaning in Beal's Green
The canopy is where the extract system breathes in. A dirty canopy passes more grease further into the system. Our diagnosis starts there, and the cure is a thorough clean of the hood, the plenum and the filter housing. The work covers baffle filters, grease gutters and wall canopies, and people most often call us about poor capture at the hood and wet, greasy drips from the hood.
For a kitchen in or near Beal's Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

What happens if it’s left?
Fresh grease comes off far more easily than old. Heat from the range bakes canopy grease into a hard, dark layer, which makes a later clean slower and harder. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Questions from Beal's Green
Which fire service covers Beal's Green?
Beal's Green is in the area of Kent Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Can you come to Beal's Green after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Beal's Green can fit around your hours. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go, so it doesn’t spread.
Do you provide pictures of the cleaned canopy?
Every clean comes with a photo report that lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach. A full TR19 clean adds a certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
Single hoods, long wall canopies and island canopies alike. We work out the approach when we survey, from pictures or a visit.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
How much does canopy cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Beal's Green knowing what to expect.
- The canopy is checked from photos or on a visit.
- Out of hours, the range is switched off, cooled and covered.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- Inside and out, the hood and its troughs are cleaned.
- We put the filters back, tidy up and photograph the finished canopy.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What canopy cleaning looks like in Beal's Green
Look up Beal's Green on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 6 restaurants, cafés and canteens in and around Beal's Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Each canopy in those kitchens catches grease on the inside of the hood and behind the filters. It’s Tunbridge Wells council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Beal's Green. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Beal's Green falls to Kent Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Marlborough House School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty. Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Scotney Castle is about 5 miles north-west), access may need planning. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Beal's Green, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
How the job changes from site to site
Grease troughs and gutters
Some troughs drain to a cup or drawer, that is emptied and cleaned too, and we will show staff where it is.
Island canopies
The underside of an island canopy is in full view, so the finish matters. We degrease it thoroughly and photograph the result.
