Canopy cleaning in Jevington
Canopy cleaning is part of every full TR19® Grease clean, but some sites need the canopy done between full cleans. In that case, the report makes clear what was and wasn’t cleaned, so your records stay accurate. Typical jobs include an EHO comment about the canopy and smoke hanging around the canopy during service, across baffle filters, grease gutters and plenum chambers.
In a small place like Jevington, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. We agree access and timings in advance.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Other services in Jevington
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. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the canopy cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Jevington.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
- Heavy deposits come off by hand, then the surfaces are degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- You get photos of the result and a recommended date for the next clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Clear loose items from the work area

Different parts, different methods
Grease troughs and gutters
Some troughs drain to a cup or drawer, that is emptied and cleaned too, and we will show staff where it is.
School and staff canteen kitchens
School and canteen kitchens often cook to set hours, so the canopy can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed. We often clean them in holidays or at weekends.
Jevington: your questions answered
Does being near the coast affect canopy cleaning in Jevington?
It can, as Jevington is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on metal. Outdoor metalwork near the sea is worth inspecting at every visit.
Do you work overnight in Jevington?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Do you provide pictures of the cleaned canopy?
Before and after photos go into a report that lists what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach. Where the whole system is cleaned, you also get a TR19 certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Do you clean the grease filters as part of a canopy clean?
They’re taken out, cleaned and refitted. We check each one seats properly, because gaps let grease through.
Can I just have the canopy cleaned instead of the whole system?
TR19® Grease is about the whole extract, from canopy to discharge. A canopy clean helps between full cleans, but the ducts and fan still need doing, and the report will say what was covered.
How long will it take to clean the canopy?
That depends on the size of the canopy and how much grease is on it. Typically it takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
What a clean will not put right
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Poor airflow from a fan that needs repair
- Grease filters too damaged to refit (they need replacing)
- A canopy undersized for the equipment
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Do you need canopy cleaning in Jevington?
Steam and condensation make canopy grease harder to deal with. As the canopy cools, condensation forms and runs with the grease. The result is sticky streaks and drips onto the range.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Heavy deposits behind the grease filters
- Poor capture at the hood
- Drips from the canopy onto the range
- A greasy hood noticed by an inspector
Bursars and site managers at schools such as Willingdon Community School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Questions to ask before booking
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether they recommend a next date

Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises.
