Leave it or put it right?

Canopy cleaning in Pamber End, done properly
Think of the canopy as the mouth of the extract. If it’s coated in grease, everything downstream gets more of it. We start the check-up there, and the treatment is a thorough degrease of the hood, plenum and housing. The work covers island canopies, wall canopies and grease gutters, and common reasons people get in touch are a sticky, discoloured canopy and filters that never seem to stay clean.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of canopy cleaning
You will get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The size of the system
- Parking and loading at the site
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.
The process
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. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Somewhere as small as Pamber End, 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.
- Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after photos and a next clean date.
Before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

What else we do in Pamber End
Part by part
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.
Plenums and filter housings
The plenum is the space behind the filters where air gathers before entering the duct. Grease that slips past the filters settles there, so it’s scraped and degreased on every canopy clean.
Your questions about canopy cleaning in Pamber End
Who is the fire and rescue service for Pamber End?
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Pamber End. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Can the work in Pamber End be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Are the filters cleaned too?
We take them out, clean them and put them back. We also offer a filter exchange service for between cleans.
What accreditations do you have?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Does a canopy clean meet TR19?
A canopy-only clean is possible, but it isn’t a full TR19 clean. TR19 Grease covers everything the grease travels through, at intervals set by BESA guidance.
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.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
We clean canopies in commercial kitchens of every kind. Whatever is cooked under it, the canopy is cleaned the same thorough way, with the equipment off and cool.
Canopy cleaning around Pamber End
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 pubs, bars and clubs across Pamber End and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Pamber End 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. Kitchens in Pamber End get their food hygiene inspections from Basingstoke and Deane council. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Pamber Priory or elsewhere in Pamber End, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often. Historic houses near Pamber End, such as The Vyne about 2 miles south-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Term dates shape school work: for a school like The Priory Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Give the canopy a wipe after service
- Keep every filter in place while cooking
- Make sure filters sit tight in the housing
- Empty the grease troughs before they fill
File the report alongside your fire risk assessment where an inspector can see it. Photos of a clean canopy and plenum make the record easy to follow.
Run the extract for as long as anything is cooking. Turning the fan off early lets vapour settle on the hood.
