Canopy cleaning in Wisley
Canopy cleans are done out of hours: after service, overnight or at the weekend. Cooking equipment is turned off and cooled, then covered so the kitchen is ready when we go. The work covers wall canopies, canopy light fittings and island canopies, and common reasons people get in touch are smoke hanging around the canopy during service and condensation running down the canopy.
In a small place like Wisley, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Wisley and across Surrey. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
Signs you need canopy cleaning in Wisley
Grease that runs down the inside of a canopy gathers in its gutters and troughs. Left to fill up, they spill over, so fat ends up running down the front of the hood.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grease dripping from the canopy edge
- Smoke hanging around the canopy during service
- Condensation running down the canopy
- Grease filters blocking between washes
Term dates shape school work: for a school like St Mary's CofE Controlled Primary School, an extract clean fits neatly into a half-term or summer break.

Different parts, different methods
Island canopies
The underside of an island canopy is in full view, so the finish matters. It’s degreased and photographed for your report.
Grease troughs and gutters
Many canopies have troughs or gutters around the edge to catch running grease. We empty and degrease them, so they can do their job again.
Leave it or put it right?
A canopy clean in Wisley now stops the grease spreading further. It takes an hour or two for one small canopy, longer where there are several, done while the kitchen is closed. Left alone, grease keeps moving into the plenum and duct. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

FAQs for Wisley
Can you come to Wisley after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Wisley needn’t be disturbed. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you get to a site in Wisley?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Wisley is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Why is my canopy dripping grease?
A canopy only holds so much grease. When the gutters fill, it overflows onto the range, often mixed with condensation. Cleaning removes the cause.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Other services in Wisley
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
What canopy cleaning looks like in Wisley
Look up Wisley on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 15 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 9 sandwich bars and takeaways within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Wisley. Wherever there’s a canopy over the cooking, its hood and plenum collect grease with every service. Wisley sits within the area of Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order. Environmental health officers from Guildford council inspect food businesses in Wisley. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Woking Community Hospital (about 3.5 miles west), often cook for long hours, which puts them in BESA’s heavier-use bands. Volunteers running a hall kitchen near Wisley Church, or anywhere in Wisley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

What we do, step by step
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes part of a shift for most kitchens, more where there are several canopies or heavy deposits, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Wisley and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We look at the canopy, filters and troughs first.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
