What affects the quote in Easton
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The times the site is available
- What state the system is in
- How easy every part is to reach
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Canopy cleaning in Easton
Grease troughs, seams and the inside edge of the canopy are the spots a daily wipe misses. Thick deposits are scraped off by hand, then the surfaces degreased to suit what’s there, using hot water or steam where it helps. If you have wet, greasy drips from the hood and grease dripping from the canopy edge, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Easton starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Don’t scrape the canopy with metal tools
- Run the extract the whole time you’re cooking
- Give the canopy a wipe after service
- Check all filters are fitted before service
Keep the photo report with your maintenance log where an inspector can see it. Before and after photos speak for themselves.
Wipe the canopy surfaces at the end of each day. It will not replace a professional clean, but it slows the build-up you can see.
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
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.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
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.
What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. For a village or hamlet like Easton, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We start by checking the canopy, filters and plenum.
- The range is turned off and allowed to cool before we cover it.
- With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned back.
- 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
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

When to call us in Easton
Filters that are missing, damaged or badly seated leave gaps. More grease reaches the plenum and housing than they’re designed to take, which shows up as heavy deposits when the filters come out.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Filters that clog soon after cleaning
- A hood coated in old grease
- Condensation running down the canopy
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Easton, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.
Before you book anyone
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
Easton questions
Can the work in Easton be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Will you come out to Easton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
How long does canopy cleaning take?
Size and build-up decide it. As a guide, it takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several.
Why is my canopy dripping grease?
Most drips come from overflowing troughs, damaged filters or a plenum thick with grease. We clean the canopy, plenum and troughs and tell you what we find.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Does a canopy clean meet TR19?
Canopy cleaning is part of TR19, not the whole of it. We’ll make clear on the report which parts were cleaned, so your records stay accurate.

Canopy cleaning in Easton: the local picture
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Easton and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Every kitchen among them that cooks under a canopy has a hood, plenum and filters collecting grease. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Easton. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract. Kitchens in Easton get their food hygiene inspections from Winchester City 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.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St John's Rooms And Chapel is the nearest hospital to Easton, about 2.3 miles south-west. For schools such as Peter Symonds College, kitchen extract cleaning is typically booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed.

Why it’s worth doing now in Easton
Grease on the canopy is sitting just above the heat source. Flames from the range can ignite it and be pulled further into the system, where a fire is much harder to stop. A clean canopy takes that fuel away. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Easton is calmer for everyone.
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
