About our canopy cleaning in Damerham
Every TR19® Grease clean includes the canopy, but some sites need the canopy done between full cleans. In that case, the report makes clear what was and wasn’t cleaned, so your records stay accurate. We’re often asked to deal with condensation running down the canopy and overflowing grease troughs and gutters, on canopy light fittings, plenum chambers and grease gutters.
Somewhere as small as Damerham, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
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, and we are fully insured.

Why act early in Damerham
If the canopy waits for the next full clean, grease keeps adding up. In a busy kitchen, the canopy and plenum can need attention between TR19 cleans, and readings or a look behind the filters will show it. A fault that closes a site in a village like Damerham affects everyone who depends on it.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Why us?
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover

- We diagnose before we treat

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.

What else we do in Damerham
What we do, step by step
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. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Damerham.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- We protect everything below once it has cooled.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after photos and a next clean date.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Advice
Common questions in Damerham
Which environmental health team covers Damerham?
The local authority for Damerham is New Forest council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.
Will you come out to Damerham?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Damerham included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
Canopies in pubs, restaurants, hotels, schools, care homes, offices and other kitchens. Whatever is cooked under it, the canopy is cleaned the same thorough way, with the equipment off and cool.
Why is my canopy dripping grease?
Normally because the troughs or gutters are full, or the plenum is overloaded. Grease has nowhere else to go, so it runs down and drips, and condensation can carry it too. A canopy clean sorts it out.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
How we price canopy cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- What state the system is in
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The number of sites or systems
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any previous report or certificate

Canopy cleaning in Damerham: the local picture
Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Damerham. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Damerham is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St George or elsewhere in Damerham, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Historic houses near Damerham, such as Breamore House about 3.5 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clean the hood’s outer surfaces daily
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Check all filters are fitted before service
- Use non-abrasive cloths on the hood
A full system clean comes with a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Where only the canopy is done, the report says so clearly.
Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
