Why it’s worth doing now in Burchett's Green
Drips from a dirty canopy land on the cooking line. It’s a food hygiene concern as much as a fire concern, and EHOs look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Why book with us
- Photo reports with every job
- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
- We’re fully insured

Canopy cleaning in Burchett's Green, done properly
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the canopy, but some sites need the canopy done between full cleans. Where that’s the case, we’ll be clear that the ducts and fan are not included, so your records stay accurate. The work covers grease gutters, baffle filters and island canopies, and common reasons people get in touch are canopy gutters full of old fat and fat running down the front of the hood.
In a small place like Burchett's Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Questions from Burchett's Green
Do you work at weekends in Burchett's Green?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Burchett's Green keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Burchett's Green?
Fire safety enforcement in Burchett's Green is handled by Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
What accreditations do you have?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Is the inside of the hood cleaned?
The whole canopy, inside and out. We also remove the filters and clean the plenum and housing behind them, since that’s where grease hides.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
What about areas you cannot get to?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
What happens to the filters during the clean?
They’re taken out, cleaned and refitted. We check each one seats properly, because gaps let grease through.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
When it’s something else
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:
- A fan that cannot pull enough air because it’s worn out
- A dirty extract fan further along the system
- A light fitting that doesn’t work
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on in Burchett's Green
- Wall canopies
- Canopy light fittings
- Baffle filters
- Plenum chambers
- Island canopies
- Grease gutters
How the job changes from site to site
Island canopies
The underside of an island canopy is in full view, so the finish matters. It’s degreased and photographed for your report.
Pub and hotel kitchens
Few pubs and hotels can shut the kitchen for a day. We clean the canopy overnight or between services so the kitchen keeps trading.
How it works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Burchett's Green.
- The canopy is checked from pictures or on a visit.
- Out of hours, the range is switched off, cooled and covered.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Signs you need canopy cleaning in Burchett's Green
Grease doesn’t build up any differently in Burchett's Green: the hours and the type of cooking decide how fast. Frying and grilling load a canopy far faster than steaming or boiling.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Canopy gutters full of old fat
- Drips from the canopy onto the range
- Condensation and grease dripping together
- Filters that clog soon after cleaning
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Mark's Hospital (about 2 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
What your quote should include
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
How we price canopy cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Parking and loading at the site
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
What canopy cleaning looks like in Burchett's Green
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Burchett's Green. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Food hygiene inspections in Burchett's Green are the job of Windsor and Maidenhead council’s environmental health team. 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. The fire and rescue service for Burchett's Green is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
Where a hall near Saint John the Evangelist, or anywhere in Burchett's Green, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. For schools such as Burchetts Green CofE Infants' School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.
