How we handle canopy cleaning in Feltham
Canopy cleans are done out of hours: after service, overnight or at the weekend. Cooking equipment is turned off and cooled, then covered so the kitchen is ready when we go. We are often asked to deal with filters that never seem to stay clean and a canopy that no longer draws the smoke away, on wall canopies, baffle filters and island canopies.
Across London, many commercial kitchens are squeezed into basements and narrow back-of-house spaces, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. In Feltham, as elsewhere in the capital, a long duct run means more access points to open and more grease to remove.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

Fixed quotes for canopy cleaning in Feltham
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Parking and loading at the site
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site rules, permits and inductions
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
How it works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, 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. Loading bays, visitor permits and roof access are the first things we ask about for a site in Feltham.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- We protect everything below once it has cooled.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after pictures and a next clean date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know about parking and loading

For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Advice
Part by part
Island canopies
An island canopy is open on all sides, so every face can collect grease. Each face is cleaned inside and out.
Wall canopies
Wall canopies sit against a wall over a cooking line. Grease often collects where the canopy meets the wall, and we clean that join along with the inside of the hood.
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
- Check filters are not leaving gaps
- Keep grease cups and drawers emptied
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.
A daily wipe of the hood keeps fresh grease from baking on. It does not reach the plenum, but it stops the outside building up.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Canopy cleaning in Feltham: the local picture
There are about 82 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 52 sandwich bars and takeaways across Feltham and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Where they cook under a hood, the plenum behind the filters is where grease hides. In Feltham, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Hounslow council. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Feltham sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Hounslow Hospital is the nearest hospital to Feltham, about 2.3 miles north-east. Where a hall near Christ Church, or anywhere in Feltham, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

What we are called out for in Feltham
Steam and condensation make canopy grease harder to deal with. 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.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Drips from the canopy onto the range
- An EHO comment about the canopy
- Filters that clog soon after cleaning
- Condensation running down the canopy
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Lawrence Catholic Primary School or anywhere near Feltham, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean.
