Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Ewhurst Green
The canopy is the part of the extract everyone in the kitchen sees. It’s also the first place cooking vapour meets, so grease gathers on its inner skin, seams and gutters. We clean it inside and out, along with the plenum and filter housing behind it. If you have condensation running down the canopy and a canopy that no longer draws the smoke away, we can put it right, from wall canopies, baffle filters and island canopies onwards.
In a small place like Ewhurst Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Aftercare tips
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Do not scrape the canopy with metal tools
- Flag any change in how the canopy behaves
- Leave the extract running until cooking stops
- Wipe the canopy down at close every day
After the clean you get a photo report showing the canopy, plenum and housing before and after. It notes what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, so the record is honest and complete.
Run the extract for as long as anything is cooking. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
Signs you need canopy cleaning in Ewhurst Green
Moisture in the air mixes with the grease on the canopy. Water vapour condenses on the cooler canopy surfaces and drips and runs with the grease. The result is sticky streaks and drips onto the range.
Look out for these warning signs:
- A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection
- Grease dripping from the canopy edge
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
- Canopy gutters full of old fat
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Ewhurst Green, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ewhurst Green
Baked-on grease gets harder to shift the longer it stays. Over months, the heat hardens it into a stubborn coating, which makes a later clean slower and harder. Planning a trip to Ewhurst Green ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
Why us?
- A written report with pictures after each visit
- Survey first, then a fixed quote
- One number for every site across the South East and London
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout

Multi-site and managed buildings
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
FAQs for Ewhurst Green
Which council inspects kitchens in Ewhurst Green?
The local authority for Ewhurst Green is Waverley council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Can you work in Ewhurst Green outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
What about areas you cannot get to?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you clean the grease filters as part of a canopy clean?
We take them out, clean them and put them back. Between cleans, a filter exchange service can keep them in good order.
Do we lose a day’s trading?
Not usually. The area we are working in has to be out of use while we’re there, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
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 because that’s often the dirtiest part.

What happens on the day
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Ewhurst Green can be planned properly.
- First the canopy is surveyed, by photos or in person.
- 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.
- We refit the filters, clear up and photograph the finished canopy.
Getting ready for the visit
