What staff can safely do

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.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Canopy cleaning in North Camp

Dripping edges and a sticky hood are the first things a visitor notices. Under the surface, the plenum behind the filters is typically in a worse state. Canopy cleaning deals with both, so the hood looks right and works properly. The work covers wall canopies, island canopies and plenum chambers, and common reasons people get in touch are filters that never seem to stay clean and canopy gutters full of old fat.

For a smaller kitchen near North Camp, a TR19® clean is the same job as anywhere: canopy, filters, plenum, duct, fan and discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Different parts, different methods

Pub and hotel kitchens

In a pub or hotel, the canopy is often in view of staff all day, so a dripping hood quickly becomes everyone’s problem. Cleaning the canopy and plenum sorts it.

School and staff canteen kitchens

Lighter cooking still leaves grease on the canopy. BESA guidance still sets a minimum interval for the whole system, and the canopy is part of it.

Common questions in North Camp

Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in North Camp in the summer holidays?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 22 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of North Camp, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will fit the work in.

Can you come to North Camp after we close?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in North Camp needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with your opening times and we will plan around them.

How much notice should we give?

Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.

What do you do with what you remove?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.

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 survey before quoting?

Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

What canopy cleaning can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:

  • Weak extraction caused by a failing fan motor
  • Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
  • A canopy too small for the cooking under it (that’s a design question)

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on in North Camp

  • Island canopies
  • Plenum chambers
  • Baffle filters
  • Canopy light fittings
  • Wall canopies
  • Grease gutters

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Why it’s worth doing now in North Camp

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. Cleaning it removes that fuel. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to North Camp at a time that suits you.

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Canopy cleaning in North Camp: the local picture

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 20 pubs, bars and clubs and about 7 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of North Camp. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Fire safety in North Camp falls to Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Food hygiene inspections in North Camp are the job of Rushmoor council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

School kitchens, at schools like St Mark's Church of England Aided Primary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you cook for passing trade around North Camp station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer. Church and community hall kitchens, near St Mark or anywhere around North Camp, are easy to forget, but their extracts collect grease like any other.

How the visit works

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like North Camp.

  1. Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
  2. We protect everything below once it has cooled.
  3. Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
  4. We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
  5. You get photos of the result and a recommended date for the next clean.

Before we arrive

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
