Hampshire · Canopy and hood cleaning
Sarisbury canopy cleaning
Canopy cleaning in Sarisbury from ventilation hygiene specialists trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection
- Greasy streaks across the canopy
- Overflowing grease troughs and gutters
What we are called out for in Sarisbury
The plenum is hidden behind the filters, so nobody sees it build up. Kitchen staff clean what they can see, so the plenum often carries months of grease.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Grease dripping from the canopy edge
- Grease filters blocking between washes
- Greasy streaks across the canopy
- A greasy hood noticed by an inspector
Commuter trade near Swanwick station can mean long cooking hours, and long hours put a kitchen into BESA’s more frequent cleaning bands.

Canopy cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Sarisbury
Grease troughs, seams and the inside edge of the canopy are the spots a daily wipe misses. We scrape the heavy deposits, then degrease the surfaces with methods that suit the build-up, using hot water or steam where it helps. The work covers wall canopies, baffle filters and plenum chambers, and the jobs we see most are fat running down the front of the hood and an EHO comment about the canopy.
Around a smaller place like Sarisbury, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so cleaning is planned around how much it cooks and what the readings show.
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.

What canopy cleaning looks like in Sarisbury
Sarisbury lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. The Food Standards Agency lists about 11 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Sarisbury. Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Sarisbury sits within the area of 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.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Paul or elsewhere in Sarisbury, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Sarisbury Church of England Junior School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Filters that no longer seal in the housing
- Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
- A canopy too small for the cooking under it (that’s a design question)
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer.
What the work covers

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Sarisbury.
- First the canopy is surveyed, by photos or in person.
- Cooking equipment is left to cool and the area under the canopy protected.
- With the filters out, the plenum and housing are cleaned back.
- Inside and out, the canopy and its grease channels are degreased.
- Filters go back, the area is cleaned down and photos are taken.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
Getting a quote

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Fresh grease comes off far more easily than old. Over months, the heat hardens it into a stubborn coating, which makes a later clean slower and harder. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.
What you get with us
- A written report with photos after each visit
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- In business since 2009
- Full insurance on every job

What affects the quote in Sarisbury
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The condition of the system
- The times the site is available
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

Questions from Sarisbury
Can you get to a site in Sarisbury?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who inspects food businesses in Sarisbury?
The local authority for Sarisbury is Fareham council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the risk rating the council gives it, so it’s worth staying ready all year.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Can you clean the canopy outside our opening hours?
We clean when you’re not cooking, so most kitchens don’t lose a service. We work evenings, nights and weekends.
What should I send you?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
How much does canopy cleaning cost in Sarisbury?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before work begins.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
For landlords and multi-site operators
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
