Canopy cleaning in Trotton Marsh, done properly
The canopy is where the extract system breathes in. If it’s coated in grease, everything downstream gets more of it. We start the check-up there, and the treatment is a thorough degrease of the hood, plenum and housing. Common call-outs are for grease channels that no longer drain and a plenum thick with grease behind the filters, on canopy light fittings, grease gutters and baffle filters.
Work in a small place like Trotton Marsh starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Honest limits
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what canopy cleaning will not do:
- A hood that doesn’t cover the cooking line
- Electrical faults in the canopy
- Ductwork and fans beyond the canopy (those need a full TR19 clean)
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Trotton Marsh kitchens: local notes
Food hygiene inspections in Trotton Marsh are the job of Chichester council’s environmental health team. 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. About 45 miles out from central London, Trotton Marsh is part of the South East area we work across. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
Older buildings often hide long, awkward duct runs, and if you run a kitchen at a historic venue in the area (Cowdray House is about 4.2 miles south-east), access may need planning.
Trotton Marsh is about 5 miles east of Petersfield, in Hampshire. We carry out canopy cleaning for commercial premises of every kind in Trotton Marsh and the rest of Hampshire. Trotton Marsh is one of 683 towns, villages and districts in Hampshire where we work for commercial clients. There’s also a page for Portsmouth, roughly 19 miles from Trotton Marsh.

FAQs for Trotton Marsh
Can you come to Trotton Marsh after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Trotton Marsh can fit around your hours. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Trotton Marsh?
Trotton Marsh is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. A recent cleaning certificate and a note of the next clean date show that grease in the extract is being managed.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
That depends on who controls the premises. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
How the job changes from site to site
Pub and hotel kitchens
Few pubs and hotels can shut the kitchen for a day. We clean the canopy overnight or between services so the kitchen keeps trading.
Grease troughs and gutters
Where a trough drains into a grease cup, that’s emptied and cleaned too, and we will show staff where it is.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Trotton Marsh
A canopy with gaps around its filters lets grease straight through. The plenum and housing behind them then take far more grease than they should, which shows up as heavy deposits when the filters come out.
What we are most often called out for:
- Drips from the canopy onto the range
- A hood coated in old grease
- Overflowing grease troughs and gutters
- A canopy that no longer draws the smoke away
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Midhurst Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Trotton Marsh, about 3.8 miles south-east.
What your quote should include
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- What paperwork you get at the end
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the figure could change on the day
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Keep every filter in place while cooking
- Give the canopy a wipe after service
- Empty the grease troughs before they fill
- Report new drips or smells from the canopy
Keep the photo report with your maintenance log where an inspector can see it. Before and after photos speak for themselves.
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.
How the visit works
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits. In a small place like Trotton Marsh, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- 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.
- We degrease the canopy shell, its seams and the grease troughs.
- Filters go back, the area is cleaned down and pictures are taken.
Preparing for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
