How we handle canopy cleaning in North Boarhunt
The canopy is the part of the extract everyone in the kitchen sees. Being first in line, it collects grease on the inside surfaces, along the seams and in the troughs. Our canopy clean covers the shell inside and out, plus the plenum and the filter housing. The work covers plenum chambers, canopy light fittings and grease gutters, and people most often call us about grease channels that no longer drain and a greasy hood noticed by an inspector.
In a village or hamlet like North Boarhunt, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

North Boarhunt kitchens: local notes
Kitchens in North Boarhunt get their food hygiene inspections from Winchester City council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in North Boarhunt falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight 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.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Knowle Hospital about 2.8 miles west, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. Where a hall near Church of the Holy Trinity, or anywhere in North Boarhunt, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. Term dates shape school work: for a school like Newtown Soberton Infant School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Why deal with it now?
A greasy canopy is fuel directly above the flame. A flare-up can catch it and be drawn into the plenum and duct, where a fire is much harder to stop. A clean canopy takes that fuel away. With notice, the visit to North Boarhunt can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

- Every job surveyed first

What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. 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. Somewhere as small as North Boarhunt, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- We protect everything below once it has cooled.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after photos and a next clean date.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Clear the space around the work
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

North Boarhunt questions
Do you work overnight in North Boarhunt?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in North Boarhunt can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you work in villages like North Boarhunt?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, North Boarhunt included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Is the inside of the hood cleaned?
We clean the canopy inside and out, along with its seams and grease channels. The plenum and filter housing behind the filters are cleaned too.
Why does grease run off the canopy edge?
A full trough, gaps around the filters or a coated plenum. We clean the canopy, plenum and troughs and tell you what we find.
How much does canopy cleaning cost in North Boarhunt?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
What information do you need?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
What paperwork do I get after a canopy clean?
Photos of the canopy and plenum before and after. It also gives a recommended date for the next clean.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Report new drips or smells from the canopy
- Wipe the canopy down at close every day
- Keep every filter in place while cooking
- Check and empty canopy gutters regularly
After the clean you get a photo report showing the canopy, plenum and housing before and after. It notes what was cleaned and anything we couldn’t reach, so the record is honest and complete.
Keep the fan running throughout service and for a short while after. Air that keeps moving carries less grease onto the canopy.
When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Bent or broken filters
- A hood that does not cover the cooking line
- Electrical faults in the canopy
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What the work involves, part by part
Wall canopies
The back of a wall canopy is hard to reach and easy to miss. With the filters out we can get to it and degrease it properly.
School and staff canteen kitchens
In a school or workplace canteen, the canopy is often the only part of the extract staff ever see. The canopy and plenum are both cleaned, so what’s out of sight is dealt with too.
