How we handle canopy cleaning in Pinewood Village
The canopy is the part of the extract everyone in the kitchen sees. It’s also the first place cooking vapour meets, so grease gathers on its inner skin, seams and gutters. We clean it inside and out, along with the plenum and filter housing behind it. If you have poor capture at the hood and fat running down the front of the hood, we can help, from canopy light fittings, grease gutters and plenum chambers onwards.
In a smaller place like Pinewood Village, many kitchens sit in older buildings or later extensions, with the duct running through a roof space or up an outside wall. Flat runs collect grease and need proper access to clean.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Why it’s worth doing now in Pinewood Village
A canopy clean in Pinewood Village now stops the grease spreading further. The work takes a few hours for most canopies, out of hours so service carries on. Put off, the grease simply moves further into the system. Even a site near Pinewood Village that’s only busy part of the week needs its system checked on a schedule.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Part by part
Pub and hotel kitchens
Pub and hotel kitchens can cook from breakfast to late evening. That is a lot of grease on the canopy, so it may need cleaning between full TR19 cleans.
Island canopies
Everything about an island canopy is on show, so the finish matters. It’s degreased and photographed for your report.
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Run the extract the whole time you’re cooking
- Check filters are not leaving gaps
- Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
- Flag any change in how the canopy behaves
We point out anything we noticed while the canopy was apart: bent or poorly fitting filters, a light cover that is cracked, or troughs that fill too quickly. We keep it to what matters.
Empty the grease troughs and cups before they fill. Most canopy drips start with a full trough, so make emptying them part of the closing routine.
Pinewood Village kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 5 pubs and bars within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Pinewood Village. Wherever they cook, the canopy, duct and fan collect grease just as a restaurant’s do. Fire safety in Pinewood Village falls to 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. Food hygiene inspections in Pinewood Village are the job of East Hampshire council’s environmental health team. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St Mark's Sacred Church, or anywhere in Pinewood Village, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it. School kitchens, at schools like Bordon Junior School for example, are normally cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Chase Community Hospital about 1.1 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Common questions in Pinewood Village
Do you cover smaller places like Pinewood Village?
Yes. Pinewood Village is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can school kitchens in Pinewood Village be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Pinewood Village, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Is canopy cleaning enough for TR19?
A canopy-only clean is possible, but it is not 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 shows the canopy and plenum before and after. If the canopy is cleaned as part of a full TR19 clean, a TR19 certificate is issued too.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
Do we need to close the kitchen for a canopy clean?
We clean when the kitchen is closed: evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. The range must be switched off and cooled first.
