Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Ealing
For canopies and hoods in Ealing, the work follows the same careful routine: filters out, plenum scraped and degreased, then the canopy cleaned inside and out. Before and after pictures go into your report. If you are dealing with fat running down the front of the hood and filters that never seem to stay clean, we can help.
Kitchens in Ealing, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, which is why keeping it clean to TR19® matters.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Questions from Ealing
Do you work overnight in Ealing?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Ealing can fit around your hours. Just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What do you need to know about parking in Ealing?
Tell us where a van can stop near your site in Ealing, and about any building rules on loading. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
What accreditations do you have?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.
How long does canopy cleaning take?
One lightly soiled hood doesn’t take long, while long canopies, several hoods or heavy deposits take more time. We’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you work in Ealing?
Yes. We work in Ealing and across Greater London, as part of our work across South East England and London. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not normally. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Do you need canopy cleaning in Ealing?
Air straight off the range hits the canopy first. Grease from the vapour lands on the canopy’s inner surfaces, its joints and its filters before what gets through reaches the plenum.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection
- Grease channels that no longer drain
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
For schools such as Ealing Independent College, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

How we price canopy cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The condition of the system
- The scale of the work
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Helping us quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
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 pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several. Before any visit in Ealing, we agree where the van can stop and how equipment reaches the system.
- We look at the canopy first, from photos or on a visit.
- Cooking equipment is left to cool and the area under the canopy protected.
- Filters come out and the plenum behind them is scraped and degreased.
- We degrease the canopy shell, its seams and the grease troughs.
- Filters go back, the area is cleaned down and photos are taken.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Empty the grease troughs before they fill
- Refit filters the right way round and fully seated
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Give the canopy a wipe after service
After the clean you get a photo report showing the canopy, plenum and housing before and after. The report lists what was cleaned and any part we couldn’t get to, so the record is honest and complete.
Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Weak extraction caused by a failing fan motor
- A canopy too small for the cooking under it (that is a design question)
- Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- Grease gutters
- Canopy light fittings
- Plenum chambers
- Baffle filters
- Island canopies
- Wall canopies

What else we do in Ealing
Kitchen extracts in Ealing
Food Standards Agency data counts about 424 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 90 takeaways and sandwich shops across Ealing and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Each canopy in those kitchens catches grease on the inside of the hood and behind the filters. Kitchens in Ealing get their food hygiene inspections from Ealing council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Fire safety in Ealing falls to London Fire Brigade. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
A hospital like Ealing Hospital, about 1.6 miles west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. A kitchen near Ealing Broadway station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.
