Canopy and hood cleaning in Ladwell, Hampshire

What staff can safely do

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Different parts, different methods

Pub and hotel kitchens

In pubs and hotels, the kitchen may be busy for much of the day. Long hours mean the canopy collects grease fast, so it may need cleaning between full TR19 cleans.

School and staff canteen kitchens

A canteen canopy may cook fewer hours, but it still collects grease. The whole system still needs cleaning at least every 12 months under BESA guidance, and the canopy is part of it.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Ladwell and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

Canopy cleaning around Ladwell

According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 6 pubs and bars within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Ladwell. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Ladwell sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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. In Ladwell, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Test Valley council. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.

Where a hall near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Ladwell, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. For schools such as John Keble Church of England Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is usually booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Romsey Community Hospital about 4.2 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.
