Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Rowner
If the canopy in Rowner is dripping, sticky or overdue a clean? Send us a photo of the hood and filters when you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll give you a fixed quote for canopy cleaning, usually within one working day. The work covers wall canopies, island canopies and grease gutters, and people most often call us about an EHO comment about the canopy and condensation and grease dripping together.
Size does not change the work: a kitchen in a place like Rowner gets the whole system cleaned, canopy to discharge. The visit is booked around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Rowner questions
Does the sea air around Rowner make a difference to canopy cleaning?
Yes, to a degree: at about 2 miles from the coast, Rowner gets salt-laden air that corrodes metal faster. Rooftop fans, discharge cowls and fixings are checked for corrosion as well as grease.
Which environmental health team covers Rowner?
Food hygiene inspections in Rowner are carried out by Gosport council. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Which canopies and hoods do you clean?
Wall canopies, island canopies and single hoods over individual appliances. The method is the same: filters out, plenum and housing cleaned, canopy degreased inside and out.
Can you clean the canopy outside our opening hours?
Only while we’re working, and we work out of hours, so service is not affected. Evenings, overnight and weekends are all possible.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you provide photos of the cleaned canopy?
Before and after pictures go into a report, listing what was cleaned. Where the whole system is cleaned, you also get a TR19 certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Signs you need canopy cleaning in Rowner
However carefully a kitchen in Rowner is run, the canopy still collects grease. It’s fuel, sitting directly over the burners, which is why a flare-up near a dirty canopy is so dangerous.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- Drips from the canopy onto the range
- Overflowing grease troughs and gutters
- Greasy streaks across the canopy
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Rowner is Gosport War Memorial Hospital, about 2.3 miles south-east.

Aftercare tips
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Avoid harsh scourers that scratch the canopy
- Keep grease cups and drawers emptied
- Tell us when the canopy starts to drip
- Refit filters the right way round and fully seated
We point out anything we noticed while the canopy was apart: damaged filters, gaps around the housing or troughs that need emptying more often. We keep it to what matters.
A change in how the canopy behaves is worth reporting. It can mean the cooking has changed or the interval is too long, which a grease thickness test can confirm.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by canopy cleaning, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It will not put right:
- Electrical faults in the canopy
- Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
- A fan that cannot pull enough air because it’s worn out
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Plenum chambers
- Wall canopies
- Grease gutters
- Island canopies
- Canopy light fittings
- Baffle filters
What happens if it’s left?
Fresh grease comes off far more easily than old. Heat from the range bakes canopy grease into a hard, dark layer, so the longer it’s left, the longer the clean takes. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.

- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The size of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The number of sites or systems
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

What canopy cleaning looks like in Rowner
Sea air reaches Rowner, which sits within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the sea, the fan and discharge at the top of a kitchen extract corrode faster than they would inland. According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 9 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels and guest houses in Rowner and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Fire safety in Rowner 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.
School kitchens, at schools like Bridgemary School for example, are usually cleaned in the holidays so no lunches are lost. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Matthew's or elsewhere in Rowner, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several. For a site near Rowner, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.
- We start by checking the canopy, filters and plenum.
- The range is turned off and allowed to cool before we cover it.
- With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned back.
- The canopy is cleaned inside and out, including troughs and seams.
- We refit the filters, clear up and photograph the finished canopy.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one
