Canopy cleaning for sites in Hook Park Estate

Why it’s worth doing now in Hook Park Estate

Leaving the canopy until the next full clean can mean months of build-up. Some kitchens need the canopy cleaning more often than the whole system, and readings or a look behind the filters will show it. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Canopy cleaning in Hook Park Estate, done properly

The canopy is where the extract system breathes in. If it’s coated in grease, everything downstream gets more of it. Our diagnosis starts there, and the treatment is a thorough degrease of the hood, plenum and housing. If you have an EHO comment about the canopy and a plenum thick with grease behind the filters, we can put it right, from canopy light fittings, island canopies and baffle filters onwards.

Work in a small place like Hook Park Estate starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

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’re happy to quote for all of it.

What happens on the day

The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several, and we clear up before we go. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Hook Park Estate can be planned properly.

  1. We start by checking the canopy and what’s behind its filters.
  2. Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
  3. Heavy deposits come off by hand, then the surfaces are degreased.
  4. We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
  5. The canopy is signed off with before and after pictures and a next clean date.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Common questions in Hook Park Estate

Do you cover smaller places like Hook Park Estate?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hook Park Estate included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

Which council inspects kitchens in Hook Park Estate?

Kitchens in Hook Park Estate are inspected by Fareham council’s environmental health officers. Have your latest TR19® certificate and photo report to hand, as an officer may ask how the extract is maintained.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

Which canopies and hoods do you clean?

Canopies in pubs, restaurants, hotels, schools, care homes, offices and other kitchens. Whatever is cooked under it, the canopy is cleaned the same thorough way, with the equipment off and cool.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

The law calls them the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and where several people have control, each can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.

Which sectors do you work in?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.

How long is a canopy clean?

One lightly soiled hood does not take long, but large or heavily soiled canopies take longer. You’ll know before work begins.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Keep grease cups and drawers emptied
  • Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
  • Never run the range with a filter out
  • Check filters are not leaving gaps

File the report alongside your fire risk assessment where an inspector can see it. Photos of a clean canopy and plenum make the record easy to follow.

Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.

How the job changes from site to site

Island canopies

An island canopy is open on all sides, so every face can collect grease. We clean all of them, inside and out.

School and staff canteen kitchens

Canteens and school kitchens tend to run to a timetable, so the canopy can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed. We often clean them in holidays or at weekends.

What affects the cost of canopy cleaning

The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:

  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The scale of the work

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.

Asking for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: 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.

Hook Park Estate kitchens: local notes

Hook Park Estate is within about 1 mile of the coast. Salt in the air is hard on rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings, so we check them for corrosion as well as grease. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs across Hook Park Estate and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Environmental health officers from Fareham council inspect food businesses in Hook Park Estate. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Before-and-after photos from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.

School kitchens, at schools like Hook-With-Warsash Church of England Academy for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Hook Park Estate, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Hook Park Estate is Coldeast, about 2.1 miles north.
