About our canopy cleaning in Hanworth
Every canopy we clean in Hanworth gets the same treatment: filters out, plenum scraped and degreased, then the canopy cleaned inside and out. You get pictures of the canopy before and after. The work covers wall canopies, grease gutters and plenum chambers, and common reasons people get in touch are grease channels that no longer drain and an EHO comment about the canopy.
London kitchens are often tucked into basements or the back of a building, with extract ducts that can climb several floors to discharge at roof level. For a kitchen in Hanworth, that typically means a longer system to clean and more access panels to plan around.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Common questions in Hanworth
Do you work overnight in Hanworth?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Hanworth needn’t be disturbed. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
Can parking be tricky for a job in Hanworth?
Tell us where a van can stop near your site in Hanworth, and about any building rules on loading. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Why does grease run off the canopy edge?
Most drips come from overflowing troughs, damaged filters or a plenum thick with grease. We clean the canopy, plenum and troughs and tell you what we find.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so you keep your normal hours.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Is Hanworth in your area?
Yes. We cover Hanworth and across Greater London, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Is canopy cleaning enough for TR19?
On its own, a canopy clean is a useful extra rather than a full TR19 clean. We will make clear on the report which parts were cleaned, so your records stay accurate.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
Grease, kitchens and Hanworth
Food Standards Agency records list about 57 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 25 takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hanworth. Every kitchen among them that cooks under a canopy has a hood, plenum and filters collecting grease. Hanworth sits within the area of London Fire Brigade. 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. London jobs usually start after the last service, with loading and roof access agreed with the building first.
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Buckingham Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Teddington Memorial Hospital (about 1.8 miles east), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands.
Hanworth is about 6 miles south of Hayes, in Greater London. Wherever you are in the TW13 postcode area, we cover canopy cleaning for commercial sites.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving the canopy until the next full clean can mean months of build-up. In a busy kitchen, the canopy and plenum can need attention between TR19 cleans, and readings or a look behind the filters will show it. A busy site in Hanworth builds up dirt and wear quickly, so putting it off makes the eventual job larger.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Hanworth
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
When to call us in Hanworth
Because the plenum sits behind the filters, it’s easy to forget. Daily cleaning reaches the canopy face but rarely gets further, leaving the plenum and housing to collect grease between professional cleans.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A sticky, discoloured canopy
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- Overflowing grease troughs and gutters
- A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection
Where a hall near St Richard's Church, or anywhere in Hanworth, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
Before you book anyone
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or photos
- Whether they’re fully insured
How it works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in Hanworth is no exception.
- We start by checking the canopy, filters and plenum.
- The range is turned off and allowed to cool before we cover it.
- With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned back.
- Inside and out, the canopy and its grease channels are degreased.
- We refit the filters, clear up and photograph the finished canopy.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

What affects the quote in Hanworth
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- How big the system is
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Parking and loading at the site
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
