How the job changes from site to site
School and staff canteen kitchens
Canteen staff see the canopy, not the duct behind it. We clean it and the plenum behind the filters, so what’s out of sight is dealt with too.
Pub and hotel kitchens
A hotel or pub kitchen can rarely close for long. We clean the canopy overnight or between services so the kitchen keeps trading.
About our canopy cleaning in Stonebridge Park
We’ve been cleaning kitchen canopies since we started trading in 2009. As a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, we treat the canopy as one part of a whole system, and we are fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. The work covers wall canopies, baffle filters and island canopies, and the jobs we see most are a hood coated in old grease and filters that never seem to stay clean.
Kitchens in Stonebridge Park, like many across London, can share a building with flats or offices, with the duct running up through shared risers. A duct fire there can reach parts of the building far from the range, so a regular TR19® clean protects everyone in it.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows 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 helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
What canopy cleaning looks like in Stonebridge Park
Food Standards Agency records list about 312 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 295 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Stonebridge Park, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of those kitchens with a canopy has a hood that needs cleaning inside and out. It’s Brent council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Stonebridge Park. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand. Overnight is the normal time to clean a London kitchen extract, so trading isn’t affected.
A hospital like Neasden Hospital, about 0.6 miles north-east, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. For kitchens close to Stonebridge Park station, where the day often starts early and ends late, the extract can be cleaned overnight.

What happens on the day
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Getting kit into a London building takes planning, so let us know where we can load and park in Stonebridge Park.
- 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.
- Plenum, housing, troughs and canopy are all cleaned and checked.
- The canopy is signed off with before and after photos and a next clean date.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Stonebridge Park: your questions answered
Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Stonebridge Park in the summer holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 41 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Stonebridge Park. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Which council inspects kitchens in Stonebridge Park?
Kitchens in Stonebridge Park are inspected by Brent council’s environmental health officers. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
What should I send you?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
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.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The law calls them the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you are not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
When do you clean the canopy?
Out-of-hours cleans are how we work, at night, early in the morning or at weekends. We leave it clean and ready for the next service.
What do you do with what you remove?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
What we’re called out for in Stonebridge Park
A canopy with gaps around its filters lets grease straight through. More grease reaches the plenum and housing than they’re designed to take, which shows up as heavy deposits when the filters come out.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A canopy flagged at an environmental health inspection
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- Grease dripping from the canopy edge
- Canopy gutters full of old fat
Where a hall near St Michael the Archangel, or anywhere in Stonebridge Park, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.
What to look for in a quote

- What paperwork you get at the end
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
When something else is needed
Canopy cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Grease in the duct runs and risers behind the canopy
- A fan that cannot pull enough air because it’s worn out
- A hood that does not cover the cooking line
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Wall canopies

Why deal with it now?
For a kitchen in Stonebridge Park, a canopy that looks greasy can colour a whole inspection. A clean hood is a sign the kitchen is cared for and keeping it that way is easier than catching up. In Stonebridge Park, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
