Kitchen exhaust problems we clean up in Roselle
We clean commercial kitchen exhaust in Roselle on the schedule NFPA 96 sets for your cooking volume. That means scraping and degreasing the hood, ducts and roof fan, photographing what we cleaned and telling you about any access or fan problems we find along the way.
Grease dripping from the hood
Drips from the canopy edge or filters mean grease has built up past what the hood can hold. A full cleaning and new filter routine stop it.
Hinged fan or access panels missing
We report missing hinges and access points with photos, so you can have them added and get a complete cleaning next time.
Smoke lingering in the kitchen
If the hood doesn't pull like it used to, grease on the fan blades and in the filters is a common cause. A full cleaning usually brings the draw back.
Cleaning can't interrupt service
Your hours come first. We book the cleaning outside service and finish before the morning crew.
School, church or daycare kitchen
Church and school kitchens are often forgotten between inspections. We set up a simple annual or semi-annual visit with paperwork for the file.
Insurance carrier requires a cleaning record
Underwriters and property managers want to see the cleaning history. We give you paperwork after each service you can file and forward.
Fire inspector asked for proof of cleaning
No sticker, or one that's long expired, is an easy write-up. We schedule a full cleaning and leave the certificate and service report you can show at the reinspection.

Commercial Hood Cleaning questions from Roselle businesses
What does hood cleaning cost?
The number of hoods, duct length, roof access, grease buildup and how often we visit drive the price. We give a written, itemized estimate after a walk-through.
Do you clean the roof fan too?
Yes, and we let you know if the belt, bearings or grease box need attention.
What does 'cleaned to bare metal' mean?
It means grease is removed until the metal surface shows, not just a film wiped off. That's the standard NFPA 96 sets for exhaust cleaning.
What is the hood cleaning sticker?
A dated certificate on the hood showing when the system was cleaned and by whom. Fire inspectors check it.
How long does a hood cleaning take?
Usually a few hours for a typical restaurant, longer for multiple hoods, long duct runs or heavy buildup.
Roselle contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
Contractors must register with the Village via Cloudpermit and be licensed: surety bond, certificate of insurance naming the Village, $75 fee. We take care of that before work starts.
