Canopy cleaning in Pusey, done properly
If the canopy in Pusey is dripping, sticky or overdue a clean? Send us a photo of the hood and filters when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and you’ll get a fixed price, usually within one working day. Common call-outs are for wet, greasy drips from the hood and grease channels that no longer drain, on canopy light fittings, wall canopies and grease gutters.
In a village or hamlet like Pusey, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are typically 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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Common questions in Pusey
Is Pusey within the area you cover?
Yes. Pusey 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.
Do you work at weekends in Pusey?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Pusey needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What should I send you?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
How long is a canopy clean?
Size and build-up decide it. As a guide, it takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
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, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
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.
Do you clean inside the canopy as well as outside?
We clean the canopy inside and out, including the seams, troughs and gutters. With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned as well.
When to call us in Pusey
Because the plenum sits behind the filters, it’s easy to forget. Kitchen staff clean what they can see, so the plenum often carries months of grease.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- A canopy that no longer draws the smoke away
- A filter housing caked in grease
- Canopy gutters full of old fat
A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near Church of All Saints or elsewhere in Pusey, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Canopy cleaning around Pusey
Environmental health officers from Vale of White Horse council inspect food businesses in Pusey. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Pusey falls to Oxfordshire 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.
Historic houses near Pusey, such as Longworth House about 2.4 miles north-east, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Pusey is Longworth Hospital, about 4.3 miles west.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- A hood that doesn’t cover the cooking line
- Poor airflow from a fan that needs repair
- Grease in the duct runs and risers behind the canopy
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on in Pusey
- Grease gutters
- Island canopies
- Plenum chambers
- Wall canopies
- Baffle filters
- Canopy light fittings
What happens on the day
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Pusey.
- Diagnosis first: we look behind the filters as well as at the hood.
- We protect everything below once it has cooled.
- Heavy deposits come off by hand, then the surfaces are degreased.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after pictures and a next clean date.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Move anything stored near the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Managing agents and facilities teams in Pusey
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
What affects the quote in Pusey
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any previous report or certificate
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep filters on a set cleaning routine
- Run the extract the whole time you’re cooking
- Don’t scrape the canopy with metal tools
- Clean the hood’s outer surfaces daily
After the clean you get a photo report showing the canopy, plenum and housing before and after. The report lists what was cleaned and any part we couldn’t get to, so the record is honest and complete.
Tell us if the canopy starts dripping or the filters clog sooner than usual. More drips or quicker clogging often mean the cleaning interval needs looking at, which a grease thickness test can confirm.
Part by part
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.
Wall canopies
Wall canopies sit against a wall over a cooking line. Grease often collects where the canopy meets the wall, and we clean that join along with the inside of the hood.
