Canopy cleaning in Beam Park, done properly
We’ve been cleaning kitchen canopies since we started trading in 2009. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, we treat the canopy as one part of a whole system, and we’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers wall canopies, canopy light fittings and baffle filters, and people most often call us about condensation running down the canopy and canopy gutters full of old fat.
In London, few kitchens can spare a day to close, so extract cleaning in Beam Park is typically done overnight, after the last service. Parking, loading and access to the roof are agreed with the building before the night of the clean.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Common questions in Beam Park
What do you need to know about parking in Beam Park?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Beam Park makes the visit easier to plan. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit typically gets round them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Beam Park?
Fire safety enforcement in Beam Park is handled by London Fire Brigade. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
It depends on the building. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Why is my canopy dripping grease?
Typically because the troughs or gutters are full, or the plenum is overloaded. With nowhere to collect, the grease overflows, and condensation can carry it too. Cleaning the canopy and plenum clears it.
Do we need to close the kitchen for a canopy clean?
Out-of-hours cleans are how we work, at night, early in the morning or at weekends. The kitchen is handed back ready to cook.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Is Beam Park in your area?
Yes. We cover Beam Park and across Greater London, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Are the filters cleaned too?
The filters are removed, cleaned and put back. Each filter is checked for fit as it goes back, because gaps let grease through.
Beam Park kitchens: local notes
There are about 65 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 63 sandwich bars and takeaways in Beam Park and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of those kitchens with a canopy has a hood that needs cleaning inside and out. London Fire Brigade covers Beam Park. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. It’s Havering council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Beam Park. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Beam Park is Rush Green Hospital, about 2.5 miles north. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Helen and St Giles or elsewhere in Beam Park, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.

When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Grease filters too damaged to refit (they need replacing)
- A canopy too small for the cooking under it (that’s a design question)
- Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Grease gutters
- Plenum chambers
- Wall canopies

What happens if it’s left?
A canopy clean in Beam Park now stops the grease spreading further. It takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up, out of hours so service carries on. Left alone, grease keeps moving into the plenum and duct. Planning ahead in Beam Park lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a few hours for most canopies. In Beam Park, as across London, we usually work overnight or at weekends and hand the site back ready to open.
- We start by checking the canopy and what’s behind its filters.
- We protect everything below once it has cooled.
- Heavy deposits come off by hand, then the surfaces are degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after pictures and a next clean date.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

Looking after it afterwards
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Leave the extract running until cooking stops
- Wash or exchange the filters on a regular cycle
- Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
- Make sure filters sit tight in the housing
We clear away the sheeting, waste grease and water before we leave. Filters are back in place and seated properly ready for the next service.
Clean filters are the canopy’s first defence. Wash or exchange them regularly, and never cook with one missing. The plenum behind them stays cleaner.
What we’re called out for in Beam Park
A canopy with gaps around its filters lets grease straight through. The plenum and housing behind them then take far more grease than they should, which shows up as heavy deposits when the filters come out.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A canopy that no longer draws the smoke away
- Grease filters blocking between washes
- Condensation running down the canopy
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Beam Park (Rainham Hall is about 1 mile south-east), fitting access panels needs care.
