What we are called out for in Hungerford
The canopy takes the hottest, wettest air in the kitchen. Fat in that air settles on the inside of the hood, in its seams and on the filters before what gets through reaches the plenum.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Filters that never seem to stay clean
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
- A hood coated in old grease
- A greasy hood noticed by an inspector
Term dates shape school work: for a school like Hyde Church of England Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.
What your quote should include
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether a written report and photos are included
How we handle canopy cleaning in Hungerford
Has the canopy started to drip or look neglected? A photo of the canopy and filters is a good start when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will send you a fixed quote for canopy cleaning, normally within one working day. The work covers baffle filters, canopy light fittings and island canopies, and the jobs we see most are wet, greasy drips from the hood and grease filters blocking between washes.
Work in a small place like Hungerford starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Wash or exchange the filters on a regular cycle
- Run the extract the whole time you’re cooking
- Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
- Make sure filters sit tight in the housing
Anything worth knowing goes into the report: bent or poorly fitting filters, a light cover that is cracked, or troughs that fill too quickly. We keep it to what matters.
Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hungerford
Drips from a dirty canopy land on the cooking line. That is a hygiene problem as well as a fire one, and EHOs look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment. With notice, the visit to Hungerford can be fitted around your bookings and events.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Hungerford: your questions answered
Can you come to Hungerford after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Hungerford keeps running as normal. Just call 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Hungerford?
Yes. Hungerford is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What paperwork do I get after a canopy clean?
A photo report, with before and after pictures of the canopy and plenum. The report includes a recommended next clean date.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
Single hoods, long wall canopies and island canopies alike. We work out the approach when we survey, from pictures or a visit.
How long is a canopy clean?
It takes a few hours for most canopies. Your quote will give a time.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
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 on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What the work involves, part by part
School and staff canteen kitchens
Lighter cooking still leaves grease on the canopy. BESA guidance still sets a minimum interval for the whole system, and the canopy is part of it.
Pub and hotel kitchens
A hotel or pub kitchen can rarely close for long. Canopy cleans are done late at night or early in the morning so the kitchen keeps trading.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
How we price canopy cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The scale of the work
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- What state the system is in
- A single visit or a regular plan
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The site address and the type of premises
For canopy cleaning in Hungerford, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, and send photos or your last report if you can. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.
The process
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Hungerford run smoothly.
- The canopy is checked from photos or on a visit.
- Out of hours, the range is switched off, cooled and covered.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- The canopy shell, seams, troughs and gutters are degreased inside and out.
- Filters are refitted, the area cleaned down and the photo report put together.
How to prepare
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
Getting a quote

Advice
Kitchen extracts in Hungerford
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Hungerford. Wherever there’s a canopy over the cooking, its hood and plenum collect grease with every service. Hungerford is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Hungerford. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.
If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hungerford (Breamore House is about 4.3 miles north), fitting access panels needs care. Where a hall near Church of the Holy Ascension, or anywhere in Hungerford, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
