Canopy and hood cleaning in Little London, West Sussex

Kitchen extracts in Little London

There are about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Little London, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Any of those kitchens with a canopy has a hood that needs cleaning inside and out. Food hygiene inspections in Little London are the job of Mid Sussex council’s environmental health team. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Little London is covered by West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.

Church and community hall kitchens, near St Peter's Church or anywhere around Little London, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other. Historic houses near Little London, such as Priest House about 1.8 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes.

For landlords and multi-site operators

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

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.

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
