Servicing commercial kitchens
Grease build-up inside exhaust systems is a major fire risk and a common compliance issue. CanopyTech provides structured exhaust servicing with clear documentation so you can demonstrate maintenance, reduce risk, and avoid last-minute surprises.
Grease accumulation in ducting and fans is a leading cause of commercial kitchen fires. Regular servicing helps remove that risk at the source.
Insurers, auditors, landlords and councils increasingly expect documented evidence of exhaust maintenance. We provide a clear service record you can keep on file.
Many providers only do a surface clean and leave little behind. CanopyTech provides a full evidence pack so you have proper documentation if questions are ever raised.
A proper service covers the full grease path, not just the visible canopy area.
Canopy and hood degreased inside and out
Grease filters cleaned and refitted
Ducting grease removed across accessible ductwork

Great service and very honest, all the photos supplied were a great help, highly recommend for anyone else needing a commercial kitchen clean.
John and the team did a fantastic job cleaning our commercial kitchen canopies. They were professional, easy to communicate with, and a pleasure to work with throughout the process. The quality of their work was excellent, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable service. We look forward to working with them again in the future.

Answers to the questions we hear most from commercial kitchen operators, facility managers and multi-site businesses.
This depends on your cooking intensity and volume. Heavy-use kitchens (deep frying, wok, charcoal) typically need servicing every 3–6 months. Medium-use kitchens every 6–12 months. We confirm the right interval during our post-service inspection based on your specific kitchen output.
We service the entire exhaust system including canopy and hood degreasing inside and out, grease filter cleaning and refitting, accessible ductwork grease removal, and exhaust fan servicing including roof and cyclo fans. Everything is documented with before and after photos and a detailed service report.
