Cranford canopy cleaning

Managing agents and facilities teams in Cranford

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 can quote for the whole system.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

What the work involves, part by part

Island canopies

Island canopies hang over cooking in the middle of the kitchen, which means grease settles on all four sides. We clean all of them, inside and out.

Grease troughs and gutters

Many canopies have troughs or gutters around the edge to catch running grease. We empty and degrease them, so they can do their job again.

Kitchen extracts in Cranford

Food Standards Agency data counts about 98 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 48 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Cranford, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they cook under a hood, the plenum behind the filters is where grease hides. In London, kitchens are typically cleaned overnight, when the kitchen is closed and loading is easier. Cranford is covered by London Fire Brigade. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.

Church and community hall kitchens, near The Parish Church of the Good Shepherd or anywhere around Cranford, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Cranford Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

What staff can safely do

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
