The Recommended Extractor Hood Cleaning Service
In most cases, above your hob will be an extractor hood. Designed to extract or re-circulate air, it is in their very nature to collect grease, and they will eventually need a comprehensive deep clean.
Ask your local Ovenu expert for their opinion on the condition of your extractor hood, either on the phone or whilst at your home. They may be able to provide you with suggestions for replacement parts, such as a new filter replacement to keep your hood working at maximum efficiency.
In all cases, our experts will help you to explain exactly which type of appliances you have so that your all-inclusive quotation is as accurate as possible. This will also ensure that sufficient time is allocated so that our technicians can produce the outstanding results we know you’ll expect.
Our Extractor Hood Cleaning Process
Arrival
You will pre-book an appointment with our local extractor hood cleaning technician, who will arrive at the scheduled time to inspect your hood and get it ready for cleaning.
Dismantling and soaking
Our technician will dismantle any removable parts from your extractor hood, taking them out to their mobile cleaning van to soak them in our proprietary cleaning products using our unique stainless-steel dipping tank.
Deep cleaning your extractor hood
While the removal components are soaking, our technician will begin the deep cleaning process, removing grease, grime, and carbon build-up from the extractor hood, including the extractor fan and filter.
Reassembling and restoring
Once the removed parts from your extractor hood have finished soaking, our technician will rinse them off and wipe them down before reassembling your hood. They will then give the hood a final polish to ensure it looks its best before running a series of checks to ensure it is operating as it should.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about extractor hood cleaning below:
Extractor hoods come in a variety of sizes, depending on the make, model, and size of the cooker they are being used with. As such, the time taken by our deep cleaning process will also vary.
The larger the extractor hood and the more extensive the dirt and grime that have built up, the longer the job. That said, we would expect most extractor hood cleans to be completed within a couple of hours.
The price of a professional extractor hood clean is based on how long it will take our team of cleaners to complete the task.
Following your initial contact, a member of our team will inspect your extractor hood for you and provide you with a free, no-obligation quote. This ensures no nasty surprises on the day of cleaning.
Your extractor hood helps rid your kitchen of steam and hot air produced while cooking. Positioned directly above your cooker, it soon becomes coated with particles of fat, grease, and grime. Not only is this not attractive, it’s a considerable health and safety risk.
Caked-on grease and food particles are a breeding ground for bacteria, many of which can cause health problems if left to grow unchecked. Being positioned above your cooker, a grease-covered extractor hood can also be a fire risk, particularly if you use a gas hob.
Cleaning an extractor hood can be a time-consuming and taxing process if you lack the right tools and experience. You can spend hours scrubbing and sluicing your hood, only to discover you just can’t clear the grime, especially from those hard-to-reach corners and components.
Ovenu recognises this, which is why we have developed our high-quality professional extractor hood cleaning service. We handle the hard graft so that you don’t have to, leaving you with a clean and gleaming extractor hood.
It all depends on how often you use the cooker below your extractor hood. Even infrequent use will cause grease and dirt to build up on the extractor hood, including its fan and filter. You might not be able to see it, but it’s there just the same. For this reason, we recommend a professional extractor hood cleaning at least once a year.
The more frequently you use your cooker, the quicker dirt and grime will build up on the extractor hood. If you cook in your kitchen every day, you might need to have your extractor hood cleaned twice a year or more. Our technicians will be able to advise you on how often your hood needs to be professionally cleaned when they make their initial inspection.
There’s nothing quite like having a perfectly cleaned and gleaming extractor hood in your kitchen. Indeed, most of our customers tell us that once their hood has been professionally cleaned, they want to do all they can to keep it that way. While you can’t avoid the buildup of grease and dirt, the following tips can help you keep your extractor hood looking cleaner for longer:
Wipe down your extractor hood after each use. Grease and grime build up over time, but you can slow the process by wiping the interior and exterior of your extractor hood after each meal.
Give the exterior of your extractor hood a regular polish. You don’t need any special tools or chemicals to keep the outside of your hood gleaming. Once you’ve wiped it down with soapy water, give the outer panels a good buff with a dry cloth to keep it sparkling and shiny.
