How we handle canopy cleaning in Hatchford End
Of the whole extract system, the canopy is the bit on show. It’s also the first place cooking vapour meets, so grease gathers on its inner skin, seams and gutters. Our canopy clean covers the shell inside and out, plus the plenum and the filter housing. We’re often asked to deal with heavy deposits behind the grease filters and grease dripping from the canopy edge, across wall canopies, island canopies and grease gutters.
In a village or hamlet like Hatchford End, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Why deal with it now?
A canopy clean in Hatchford End now stops the grease spreading further. It takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up, out of hours so service carries on. Left alone, grease keeps moving into the plenum and duct. It’s simpler to plan the work at Hatchford End now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
When to call us in Hatchford End
Grease doesn’t build up any differently in Hatchford End: it comes down to how long the kitchen cooks and what’s on the menu. Frying and grilling load a canopy far faster than steaming or boiling.
The symptoms we are asked about most are:
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
- A greasy hood noticed by an inspector
- Poor capture at the hood
- Fat running down the front of the hood
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Woking Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Hatchford End, about 4.8 miles west.

FAQs for Hatchford End
Do you work in villages like Hatchford End?
Yes. Hatchford End is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can a school canteen extract in Hatchford End be done out of term time?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Hatchford End. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
What does canopy cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself is not law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
What kinds of canopies do you clean?
Wall and island canopies, long cooking-line hoods and small single hoods. The method is the same: filters out, plenum and housing cleaned, canopy degreased inside and out.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
How the visit works
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. On site, the work takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Hatchford End.
- First the canopy is surveyed, by pictures or in person.
- Equipment below is switched off and left to cool, then sheeted.
- Filters come out and the plenum behind them is scraped and degreased.
- The canopy is cleaned inside and out, including troughs and seams.
- Clean filters are refitted and before and after pictures go into your report.
Before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

What else we do in Hatchford End
How the job changes from site to site
Wall canopies
Wall canopies sit against a wall over a cooking line. The joint between canopy and wall is a common grease trap, and we clean that join along with the inside of the hood.
Pub and hotel kitchens
In a pub or hotel, the canopy is often in view of staff all day, so a dripping hood quickly becomes everyone’s problem. A thorough clean puts that right.
How we price canopy cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- The size of the system
- The times the site is available
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
If you need canopy cleaning in Hatchford End, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send pictures or your last report if you can. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Hatchford End
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. 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.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
