How the job changes from site to site
Island canopies
Everything about an island canopy is on show so a clean, even finish matters. It’s degreased and photographed for your report.
Pub and hotel kitchens
In pubs and hotels, the kitchen may be busy for much of the day. That’s a lot of grease on the canopy, and canopy cleans between full cleans can help.
Canopy cleaning in Weston Green
A kitchen team can wipe the outside of a canopy, but the seams, gutters and inner skin need more. Thick deposits are scraped off by hand, then the surfaces degreased to suit what’s there, using hot water or steam where it helps. The work covers baffle filters, plenum chambers and island canopies, and people most often call us about fat running down the front of the hood and heavy deposits behind the grease filters.
For a kitchen in or near Weston Green, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

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
- Wash or exchange the filters on a regular cycle
- Clean the hood’s outer surfaces daily
- Run the extract the whole time you are cooking
Anything worth knowing goes into the report: damaged filters, gaps around the housing or troughs that need emptying more often. We keep it to what matters.
A daily wipe of the hood keeps fresh grease from baking on. It won’t replace a professional clean, but it slows the build-up you can see.
How we price canopy cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Canopy cleaning in Weston Green: the local picture
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 85 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 19 sandwich bars and takeaways within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Weston Green. Any of those kitchens with a canopy has a hood that needs cleaning inside and out. Kitchens in Weston Green get their food hygiene inspections from Elmbridge council. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Weston Green sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Where a hall near Church of All Saints, or anywhere in Weston Green, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does. A kitchen near Thames Ditton station that serves breakfast and dinner can run its extract twelve hours or more, which shortens the cleaning interval.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

What else we do in Weston Green
Weston Green: your questions answered
Can the work in Weston Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Weston Green keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Will you come out to Weston Green?
Yes. Weston Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can I just have the canopy cleaned instead of the whole system?
A TR19® Grease clean covers the whole system, not just the canopy. Cleaning the canopy alone leaves the ducts, risers and fan untouched, and the report will say what was covered.
Is the inside of the hood cleaned?
The full canopy, inside and out, and the plenum behind it. Grease troughs and filter channels are emptied and degreased as part of the job.
How much does canopy cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Will I get a report after the canopy clean?
Before and after photos 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.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Do you need canopy cleaning in Weston Green?
The plenum is hidden behind the filters, so nobody sees it build up. Kitchen staff clean what they can see, leaving the plenum and housing to collect grease between professional cleans.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Wet, greasy drips from the hood
- Overflowing grease troughs and gutters
- An EHO comment about the canopy
- Filters that clog soon after cleaning
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Tolworth Hospital is the nearest hospital to Weston Green, about 2.4 miles east.
What your quote should include
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- When the next visit should be, and why
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- What records you will receive afterwards
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the canopy cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a few hours, depending on the size of the canopy and how much grease has built up. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Weston Green.
- The canopy is checked from pictures or on a visit.
- Once the kitchen has closed, the cooking line is cooled and sheeted.
- With the filters removed, the plenum and filter channels are cleaned.
- Inside and out, the hood and its troughs are cleaned.
- Filters are refitted, the area cleaned down and the photo report put together.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

Honest limits
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what canopy cleaning won’t do:

- Weak extraction caused by a failing fan motor
- A canopy undersized for the equipment
