How we handle canopy cleaning in Newton Valence
We clean canopies in Newton Valence when the kitchen is not cooking: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Cooking equipment is turned off and cooled, then covered so the kitchen is ready when we go. If you have grease filters blocking between washes and wet, greasy drips from the hood, we can help, from grease gutters, wall canopies and island canopies onwards.
In a small place like Newton Valence, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Canopy cleaning around Newton Valence
Newton Valence is covered by 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.

Where a hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in Newton Valence, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Why deal with it now?
Grease dripping from the hood can fall onto food, pans and worktops. That’s a hygiene problem as well as a fire one, and EHOs look at the cleanliness of the premises and equipment. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Newton Valence rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Take a look at what affects the cost or our accreditations.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Somewhere as small as Newton Valence, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The canopy is checked from pictures or on a visit.
- Once the kitchen has closed, the cooking line is cooled and sheeted.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- Inside and out, the hood and its troughs are cleaned.
- We put the filters back, tidy up and photograph the finished canopy.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before any work starts.
Advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
How the job changes from site to site
Pub and hotel kitchens
In pubs and hotels, the kitchen may be busy for much of the day. That’s a lot of grease on the canopy, so it may need cleaning between full TR19 cleans.
Plenums and filter housings
Behind the grease filters is the plenum. It catches whatever gets past the filters, and it’s cleaned every time we clean the canopy.
Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
Common questions in Newton Valence
Which fire service covers Newton Valence?
Fire safety enforcement in Newton Valence is handled by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. If a fire safety officer visits a commercial kitchen, they may ask about the fire risk assessment and how the extract is kept clean.
Do you work at weekends in Newton Valence?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Newton Valence can fit around your hours. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What paperwork do I get after a canopy clean?
A photo report, with before and after pictures of the canopy and plenum. It also gives a recommended date for the next clean.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
Wall and island canopies, long cooking-line hoods and small single hoods. The method is the same: filters out, plenum and housing cleaned, canopy degreased inside and out.
What’s TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
How we price canopy cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The number of sites or systems
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will talk you through it.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- A few general shots of the system
- The postcode and the type of business
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
- Poor airflow from a fan that needs repair
- Filters that no longer seal in the housing
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
