Fixed quotes for canopy cleaning in Fawley
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The condition we find in the survey
- The number of sites or systems
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
About our canopy cleaning in Fawley
Has the canopy started to drip or look neglected? Send us a photo of the hood and filters when you call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will send you a fixed quote for canopy cleaning, usually within one working day. Common call-outs are for condensation and grease dripping together and greasy streaks across the canopy, on plenum chambers, baffle filters and grease gutters.
In a small place like Fawley, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

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. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Weak extraction caused by a failing fan motor
- A hood that does not cover the cooking line
- A dirty extract fan further along the system
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
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.
Kitchen extracts in Fawley
The coast is only about 1 mile from Fawley. Metal on the roof weathers faster close to the coast, and the extract fan and cowl are no exception. Food Standards Agency records list about 4 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 8 takeaways and sandwich shops in Fawley and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of those kitchens with a canopy has a hood that needs cleaning inside and out. It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fawley. 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.
School kitchens, at schools like Fawley Infant School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Fawley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Coldeast about 4.2 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Why deal with it now?
When grease clogs the filters and plenum, the canopy cannot draw air as it should. Smoke and heat hang around the cooking line, and the fan works harder for less. A clean canopy and plenum let the extract do its job. In a place like Fawley, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will explain what it covers.

Advice

Different parts, different methods
Wall canopies
A long wall canopy may hold several sections of filters. Each section’s plenum and housing is cleaned in turn, with pictures for each.
Plenums and filter housings
Behind the grease filters is the plenum. Grease that slips past the filters settles there, and it’s cleaned every time we clean the canopy.
FAQs for Fawley
Which environmental health team covers Fawley?
That is New Forest council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Fawley. An officer may look up into the canopy, so clean filters on the day and a recent certificate on file both help.
Can you clean school kitchen extracts in Fawley during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Fawley. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
What happens to the filters during the clean?
Filters are removed so we can clean the plenum and housing, then cleaned and refitted. Between cleans, a filter exchange service can keep them in good order.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How long is a canopy clean?
One lightly soiled hood doesn’t take long, but large or heavily soiled canopies take longer. You’ll know before work begins.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do we need to close while you work?
Normally not. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
