About our canopy cleaning in Paley Street
We have been cleaning kitchen canopies since we started trading in 2009. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’re fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers island canopies, grease gutters and wall canopies, and people most often call us about overflowing grease troughs and gutters and filters that clog soon after cleaning.
In a village or hamlet like Paley Street, 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, whatever the size of the place.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Filters that no longer seal in the housing
- Electrical faults in the canopy
- A canopy too small for the cooking under it (that’s a design question)

What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
How we price canopy cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- What state the system is in
- The size of the system
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll talk you through it.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The site address and the type of premises
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Paley Street questions
Which fire authority looks after Paley Street?
That’s Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Will you come out to Paley Street?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Paley Street included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Why is my canopy dripping grease?
Grease that builds up inside the canopy has to go somewhere. Once the troughs and plenum are full, it runs down and drips, often mixed with condensation. A thorough clean stops it.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How long is a canopy clean?
Allow a few hours for most canopies. Your quote will give a time.

Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. The fire and rescue service for Paley Street is Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.

How the job changes from site to site
School and staff canteen kitchens
A canteen canopy may cook fewer hours, but it still collects grease. BESA guidance still sets a minimum interval for the whole system, and the canopy is part of it.
Pub and hotel kitchens
In pubs and hotels, the kitchen may be busy for much of the day. That is a lot of grease on the canopy, so it may need cleaning between full TR19 cleans.
What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. In a small place like Paley Street, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- The canopy is checked from photos or on a visit.
- Out of hours, the range is switched off, cooled and covered.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- The canopy shell, seams, troughs and gutters are degreased inside and out.
- Filters are refitted, the area cleaned down and the photo report put together.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Related advice
Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Wipe the canopy down at close every day
- Report new drips or smells from the canopy
- Keep grease cups and drawers emptied
- Keep every filter in place while cooking
The kitchen is handed back clean, with the sheeting gone and the waste removed. Filters are back in place and seated properly ready for the next service.
Wipe the canopy surfaces at the end of each day. It won’t replace a professional clean, but it slows the build-up you can see.
