Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Kenardington
Every canopy we clean in Kenardington gets the same treatment: we remove the filters, clean the plenum and housing, then degrease the canopy shell. You get photos of the canopy before and after. The work covers plenum chambers, wall canopies and baffle filters, and the jobs we see most are a filter housing caked in grease and canopy gutters full of old fat.
For a kitchen in or near Kenardington, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy, filters, duct, fan and discharge, with a certificate and photo report at the end.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Leave it or put it right?
If the canopy waits for the next full clean, grease keeps adding up. Some kitchens need the canopy cleaning more often than the whole system, and readings or a look behind the filters will show it. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before we start.

How we price canopy cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
- The condition we find in the survey
- Any permits to work or inductions
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
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- 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
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Your questions about canopy cleaning in Kenardington
Can you work in Kenardington outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you work in villages like Kenardington?
Yes, Kenardington is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Why is my canopy dripping grease?
Most drips come from overflowing troughs, damaged filters or a plenum thick with grease. We clean all three and point out anything that is causing it.
What kinds of canopies do you clean?
Single hoods, long wall canopies and island canopies alike. The survey tells us how best to clean yours, from pictures or a visit.
Do you clean the grease filters as part of a canopy clean?
We remove the filters to reach the plenum, and they’re cleaned before going back in. We will tell you if any need replacing.
How much does canopy cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
Do you need canopy cleaning in Kenardington?
The plenum is hidden behind the filters, so nobody sees it build up. Kitchen staff clean what they can see, leaving the plenum and housing to collect grease between professional cleans.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A sticky, discoloured canopy
- A greasy hood noticed by an inspector
- Condensation and grease dripping together
- Canopy gutters full of old fat
Church and community hall kitchens, near Church of St Mary or anywhere around Kenardington, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.
What your quote should include
- What insurance they carry
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether they recommend a next date
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. Visits to a village like Kenardington are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First the canopy is surveyed, by photos or in person.
- 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.
- We degrease the canopy shell, its seams and the grease troughs.
- Clean filters are refitted and before and after photos go into your report.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Get a fixed quote
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 we can price many jobs without a visit.
Related advice
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
What a clean won’t put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- A canopy undersized for the equipment
- Poor airflow from a fan that needs repair
- A dirty extract fan further along the system
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
