Windsor and Maidenhead · Canopy and hood cleaning
Holyport canopy cleaning
One call covers deep cleaning of kitchen canopies, hoods, plenums and grease filters, inside and out in Holyport, from survey to sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- A sticky, discoloured canopy
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
How we handle canopy cleaning in Holyport
Dripping edges and a sticky hood are the first things a visitor notices. Under the surface, the plenum behind the filters is normally in a worse state. We clean both, so the canopy is clean where it shows and where it does not. If you have condensation and grease dripping together and grease dripping from the canopy edge, we can help, from plenum chambers, canopy light fittings and island canopies onwards.
Somewhere as small as Holyport, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Each still has a canopy and duct that collect grease.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What affects the cost of canopy cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The times the site is available
- The condition we find in the survey
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
FAQs for Holyport
Do you work at weekends in Holyport?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Holyport needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Will you come out to Holyport?
Yes, Holyport is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. It’s normally the employer, or whoever controls the building, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
We clean canopies in commercial kitchens of every kind. Whatever is cooked under it, the canopy is cleaned the same thorough way, with the equipment off and cool.
What happens to the filters during the clean?
The filters are removed, cleaned and put back. Each filter is checked for fit as it goes back, because gaps let grease through.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.
Canopy cleaning in Holyport: the local picture
Food Standards Agency data counts about 20 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 5 takeaways in Holyport 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. Environmental health officers from Windsor and Maidenhead council inspect food businesses in Holyport. 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. Holyport sits within the area of Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Holyport (Dorney Court is about 2.2 miles east), fitting access panels needs care. Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; St Mark's Hospital is the nearest hospital to Holyport, about 2.5 miles north-west.

Part by part
Wall canopies
The back of a wall canopy is hard to reach and easy to miss. We remove the filters to reach it and degrease it properly.
School and staff canteen kitchens
Canteen staff see the canopy, not the duct behind it. The canopy and plenum are both cleaned, so what’s out of sight is dealt with too.
What we are called out for in Holyport
However carefully a kitchen in Holyport is run, the canopy still collects grease. That grease is fuel sitting right above the heat, so a flare-up near a greasy hood can quickly become a fire.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Condensation and grease dripping together
- Filters that never seem to stay clean
- Grease dripping from the canopy edge
- An EHO comment about the canopy
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Holyport CofE Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- How they set the interval to the next visit
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Check and empty canopy gutters regularly
- Check filters are not leaving gaps
- Don’t scrape the canopy with metal tools
- Clean the hood’s outer surfaces daily
We clear away the sheeting, waste grease and water before we leave. Every filter is refitted and checked ready for the next service.
Wipe the canopy surfaces at the end of each day. It won’t replace a professional clean, but it slows the build-up you can see.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

The process
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. The timing of a visit to Holyport is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We start by checking the canopy, filters and plenum.
- The range is turned off and allowed to cool before we cover it.
- We remove the grease filters and clean the plenum and filter housing.
- The canopy is cleaned inside and out, including troughs and seams.
- Filters go back, the area is cleaned down and pictures are taken.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Advice
Why act early in Holyport
Drips from a dirty canopy land on the cooking line. That’s a hygiene problem as well as a fire one, and environmental health officers look at the cleanliness of equipment, extraction included. In a place like Holyport, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before work begins.
