Canopy cleaning in Stunts Green
Think of the canopy as the mouth of the extract. If it’s coated in grease, everything downstream gets more of it. Our diagnosis starts there, and the treatment is a thorough degrease of the hood, plenum and housing. The work covers canopy light fittings, baffle filters and wall canopies, and the jobs we see most are smoke hanging around the canopy during service and heavy deposits behind the grease filters.
In a small place like Stunts Green, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, and those horizontal sections are where grease settles. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Canopy cleaning in Stunts Green: the local picture
Food hygiene inspections in Stunts Green are the job of Wealden council’s environmental health team. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. About 45 miles out from central London, Stunts Green is part of the South East area we work across. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Historic houses near Stunts Green, such as Horselunges Manor about 2.9 miles west, are a reminder that older buildings with event kitchens can have long, awkward duct routes. Bursars and site managers at schools such as Herstmonceux Church of England Primary School tend to book extract cleaning for when the kitchen is empty.
Stunts Green is about 3 miles north-east of Hailsham, in East Sussex.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Refit filters the right way round and fully seated
- Use non-abrasive cloths on the hood
- Wipe the canopy down at close every day
- Tell us when the canopy starts to drip
Keep the photo report with your maintenance log, so it’s ready when an EHO, insurer or fire officer asks. Photos of a clean canopy and plenum make the record easy to follow.
Wipe the canopy surfaces at the end of each day. It won’t replace a professional clean, but it slows the build-up you can see.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Stunts Green and across East Sussex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
How the job changes from site to site
Wall canopies
At the back of the canopy, behind the filters, grease builds up unseen. We remove the filters to reach it and scrape it clean.
Plenums and filter housings
A plenum that hasn’t been cleaned for a long time can hold a thick layer of grease. We remove thick grease by hand, then degrease.
Signs you need canopy cleaning in Stunts Green
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.
Clients usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- A sticky, discoloured canopy
- A plenum thick with grease behind the filters
- Grease filters blocking between washes
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Stunts Green is Amberstone Hospital, about 1.8 miles south-west.
What your quote should include
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- What hours they’ll be on site
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether they’re fully insured
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Stunts Green can be planned properly.
- We start by checking the canopy and what’s behind its filters.
- Equipment is turned off and cooled, and the area under the canopy is protected.
- Thick grease is scraped away before the canopy is degreased.
- We finish the plenum, troughs and canopy and check them over.
- You get pictures of the result and a recommended date for the next clean.
How to prepare
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Move anything stored near the system

What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
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. That is our job.
