What canopy cleaning looks like in Ewhurst
Fire safety in Ewhurst falls to Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Environmental health officers from Waverley council inspect food businesses in Ewhurst. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Ewhurst CofE Aided Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Ewhurst, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

How we handle canopy cleaning in Ewhurst
Canopy cleaning is part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but a canopy can also need cleaning on its own, between full system cleans. In that case, the report makes clear what was and wasn’t cleaned, so your records stay accurate. If you’re dealing with heavy deposits behind the grease filters and overflowing grease troughs and gutters, we can put it right.
For a kitchen in or near Ewhurst, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What your team can do, and what needs us
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. That is our job.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What affects the cost of canopy cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The size of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The postcode and the type of business
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Your questions about canopy cleaning in Ewhurst
Can the work in Ewhurst be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Ewhurst doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you cover smaller places like Ewhurst?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Ewhurst is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
How much of the canopy do you clean?
We clean the canopy inside and out, along with its seams and grease channels. With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned as well.
How long is a canopy clean?
It takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Your quote will give a time.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Why does grease run off the canopy edge?
A canopy only holds so much grease. Once the troughs and plenum are full, it runs down and drips, often mixed with condensation. Cleaning removes the cause.
Do you clean the grease filters as part of a canopy clean?
Filters are removed so we can clean the plenum and housing, then cleaned and refitted. We also offer a filter exchange service for between cleans.
Why act early in Ewhurst
A canopy clean in Ewhurst now stops the grease spreading further. The work takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits, out of hours so service carries on. Put off, the grease simply moves further into the system. In a small place like Ewhurst, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

How the job changes from site to site
Plenums and filter housings
The rails and channels that hold the filters collect grease. We clean them so the filters sit tight and leave no gaps.
Grease troughs and gutters
Drips from the canopy edge often start in a full gutter. Cleaning it clears the drip.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Never run the range with a filter out
- Keep grease cups and drawers emptied
- Refit filters the right way round and fully seated
A full system clean comes with a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. If the job covers only the canopy, the paperwork reflects that.
Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Ewhurst, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We look at the canopy, filters and troughs first.
- Once the kitchen has closed, the cooking line is cooled and sheeted.
- We lift out the filters and scrape the plenum and housing.
- The canopy shell, seams, troughs and gutters are degreased inside and out.
- We put the filters back, tidy up and photograph the finished canopy.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Getting a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.
