Hood Cleaning in Toronto, Ontario
Hood cleaning strips accumulated cooking grease out of a commercial kitchen exhaust system before it can fuel a fire: the canopy over the cook line, the baffle filters, the plenum cavity behind them, the accessible duct, and the exhaust fan. Hood Cleaning Toronto does exactly that for kitchens across the City of Toronto, working to the published NFPA 96 standard that the Ontario Fire Code and insurers treat as the technical baseline. Pricing starts at $385 per visit, work runs overnight or before opening so your line never loses a shift, and every job closes with photo proof and a signed certificate.

The hood is only the visible fifth of the system. This service follows the grease into the duct and out to the exhaust fan, which is where fires travel.
Service detailsRestaurant Equipment Cleaning
Deep cleaning for the cooking equipment under the hood, including behind-the-line pull-out cleans that a nightly wipe-down never reaches.
Service detailsFire Prevention Degreasing
Grease does not stop at the hood edge. Walls, ceilings and backsplashes near the cook line get degreased before they become the next fuel source.

How a visit runs
Hood Cleaning Toronto arrives when your kitchen is dark, usually overnight or before the morning shift, and protects the cook line before any degreaser comes out. The crew works the system from the canopy and filters through the plenum and accessible duct to the exhaust fan, photographing each surface before and after. You get the kitchen back ready for prep, along with a signed certificate of performance referencing the NFPA 96 standard.

Hood cleaning in Toronto: frequently asked questions
The questions operators ask before they book.
What is Hood Cleaning Toronto?
Hood Cleaning Toronto is a commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning service for the City of Toronto. The work covers the hood and canopy, baffle filters, plenum, accessible duct and exhaust fan, plus restaurant equipment cleaning and fire prevention degreasing, all performed to the published NFPA 96 standard. Every visit produces before-and-after photos and a signed certificate of performance, and proof of WSIB clearance and liability insurance goes to the operator before work starts. The about page covers the business in more detail.
Which parts of Toronto does Hood Cleaning Toronto cover?
Hood Cleaning Toronto serves the City of Toronto: the downtown core, midtown, the east and west ends, East York and York. That includes restaurant rows like Chinatown, Queen West and the Danforth as well as institutional kitchens across the city. Kitchens outside the city limits are better served by a company based in their own area. The service area page lists the neighbourhoods and explains how downtown access and overnight windows are handled.
How do I book a hood cleaning in Toronto?
Hood Cleaning Toronto takes bookings through the quote form on this page, the contact page, or by phone at 647-931-1260. Say how many hoods you run, roughly how long the canopy is, what you cook, and when the kitchen is empty. You get a written quote, and the visit is scheduled overnight, early morning or between services so the line never loses a shift. Single-hood kitchens start from $385 per visit.
What proof does Hood Cleaning Toronto leave behind after a job?
Hood Cleaning Toronto closes every job with two records: a set of before-and-after photos covering every cleaned surface, and a signed certificate of performance referencing the NFPA 96 standard. Proof of WSIB clearance and liability insurance is supplied before work starts, not after. Together those are the documents a Toronto Fire Services inspector, a landlord or an insurance adjuster will actually ask to see.
Does Hood Cleaning Toronto clean residential range hoods?
No. Hood Cleaning Toronto works on commercial kitchen exhaust systems only. The service is built around the NFPA 96 standard, which governs commercial cooking operations, so a home range hood falls outside what the certificate could honestly cover. For a house or condo kitchen, a residential appliance cleaning service is the right call.
