Elevate Your Kitchen’s Standards
Reliable, code-compliant hood cleaning services for commercial kitchens of all sizes.
At North Bay Restaurant Services, we provide comprehensive commercial hood cleaning services that go beyond the basics. Our certified technicians clean your entire exhaust system down to bare metal, in accordance with NFPA 96 standards — ensuring maximum fire safety and performance.
We follow a strict, step-by-step cleaning protocol
Prep & Protect
We cover all nearby equipment and surfaces to prevent overspray or damage.
Degrease & Scrub
We use food-safe, industrial-grade degreasers and hot water pressure washing to effectively eliminate all grease and carbon buildup.
High-Pressure Steam Cleaning
We clean your entire system — including hoods, filters, ductwork, and rooftop fans — down to bare metal, per fire code standards.
Wastewater Collection
We don’t just stop at cleaning. Our team collects and contains all wastewater generated during the process and hauls it away for proper disposal — keeping your kitchen, facility, and the environment protected.
Pristine Touch
We finish by mopping the floors and hand-polishing the hood for a shining, spotless appearance.
Checks and Balances
We don’t just clean — we ensure your entire exhaust system is operating at peak performance. As part of our comprehensive inspection process, our team evaluates the following key areas:
✅ System Accessibility
We verify that all components are accessible and fire-code compliant, ensuring that every part of the system can be properly cleaned and maintained.
✅ Grease Buildup
We assess the level of grease accumulation. If excessive buildup is found, we may recommend more frequent cleanings or additional solutions to reduce risk and maintain efficiency.
✅ Filter Condition
Filters are inspected for effectiveness and cleanliness to maintain proper airflow and system performance.
✅ Electrical Components
We check wiring, connections, and lighting for signs of wear, damage, or potential hazards.
✅ Fan Belt & Motor Condition
Our team inspects the belt and motor for wear. We also offer repair services and include a free fan belt replacement annually (with 2 year service agreement).
✅ Roof Condition
We examine the area surrounding the exhaust fan for grease saturation, pooling, or structural concerns, ensuring rooftop safety and code compliance.
Detailed Reports
We stand behind our work with complete transparency. After every service, you’ll receive a detailed report that includes:
- Before and after photos of 9 critical points within your hood and exhaust system
- A Checks and Balances inspection checklist, outlining what our technicians evaluated, and any issues found
- Recommended services or maintenance to keep your kitchen safe, efficient, and running at top performance
This final step ensures you have full documentation for compliance, insurance, and peace of mind.
