Hampshire · Canopy and hood cleaning
Goodworth Clatford canopy cleaning
Deep cleaning of kitchen canopies, hoods, plenums and grease filters, inside and out for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Goodworth Clatford. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and fully insured.
- Heavy deposits behind the grease filters
- A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

Canopy cleaning in Goodworth Clatford: the local picture
Kitchens in Goodworth Clatford get their food hygiene inspections from Test Valley council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready. Fire safety in Goodworth Clatford falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
Where a hall near Church of St Peter, or anywhere in Goodworth Clatford, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Clatford Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a few hours for most canopies. For a village or hamlet like Goodworth Clatford, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after pictures and a next clean date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Fixed quotes for canopy cleaning in Goodworth Clatford
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The size of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Why deal with it now?
In Goodworth Clatford, as elsewhere, a greasy canopy is one of the first things an inspector sees. Keeping it clean shows the rest of the kitchen is being looked after, and it’s far easier to keep clean than to rescue. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Goodworth Clatford is calmer for everyone.
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll talk you through it.

What a clean won’t put right

- A light fitting that doesn’t work

Your questions about canopy cleaning in Goodworth Clatford
Which fire authority looks after Goodworth Clatford?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Goodworth Clatford. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Do you work at weekends in Goodworth Clatford?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you clean inside the canopy as well as outside?
The full canopy, inside and out, and the plenum behind it. Troughs, gutters and filter housings are cleaned too.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
How long is a canopy clean?
A single canopy with a light build-up is fairly quick, but large or heavily soiled canopies take longer. You’ll know before any work starts.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you cover Goodworth Clatford?
Yes. Goodworth Clatford is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.
Can I just have the canopy cleaned instead of the whole system?
Canopy cleaning is part of TR19, not the whole of it. We will make clear on the report which parts were cleaned so nobody mistakes it for a full system clean.
Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Check and empty canopy gutters regularly
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Keep the fan on through service
- Give the canopy a wipe after service
A full system clean comes with a TR19 certificate from the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal. Where only the canopy is done, the report says so clearly.
Run the extract for as long as anything is cooking. Turning the fan off early lets vapour settle on the hood.

Common problems we fix in Goodworth Clatford

- Grease filters blocking between washes
- Condensation and grease dripping together
- An EHO comment about the canopy
- Fat running down the front of the hood
