Contact North York Hood Cleaning
North York Hood Cleaning is a commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning service that takes every enquiry at one number, 647-797-9137, or through the quote form on this page. Most callers reach a person directly, since the phone line carries the large majority of enquiries here. A call books the free walk-through during the conversation, and the written quote follows within 24 hours of that visit. The form reaches the same book and the same crew, so a wok kitchen in Willowdale and a pizzeria near Fairview Mall get the same answer by either route. Visits run overnight or between services across North York and Thornhill west of Yonge Street.
What to have ready when you call
Five answers let the call end with a price band and a night on the calendar.
The cooking line. A wok range, a tandoor, a charbroiler, a Korean barbecue table grill and a wood-fired oven each put a different load into the system and each sits on a different inspection interval. Name every appliance under the hood, including one that only runs during a lunch rush at a food-court unit.
The canopy count and length. A single-hood kitchen up to ten feet starts from $585 per visit, a multi-hood kitchen of two to four canopies starts from $995 per visit, and food-court, hospital, campus, care-home and shared-riser systems are quoted on site after a free walk-through. A rough length in feet is enough to start.
The dark hours. A Yonge corridor dining room that closes at ten, a mall food-court unit locked to landlord access hours and a hospital kitchen that never fully closes are three different bookings. Say which one you are and the visit is shaped to fit.
The roof. The exhaust fan sits on the roof, and in a plaza or a mall the tenant rarely holds the hatch key. Find out early who does, because a locked roof is the most common reason a night ends at the duct.
The paper trail. The date of the last certificate, if one exists, and any inspection or renewal date already fixed by Toronto Fire Services, Toronto Public Health, an insurer or a franchise office. A system with no record on file is scoped differently from one on a cycle.

How fast does North York Hood Cleaning respond?
North York Hood Cleaning returns a written quote within 24 hours of the free walk-through, and a phone call is the shortest path to that walk-through.
- By phone. A call to 647-797-9137 settles the price band, checks the next open night and confirms the job is in scope, in one conversation. Most enquiries here arrive this way.
- By form. A submission lands in the same book as the calls and gets a written reply within 24 hours. Property managers and franchise offices that want the request on record tend to use it.
- The walk-through. Free and without obligation. The technician pulls a filter, looks into the plenum, traces the duct to its access panels and goes up to the fan, then says which sections can be reached.
- The quote. One written page within 24 hours: scope, price and any item that waits on your approval, such as a hinge kit or a section of duct with no access panel.
- Before the night. Proof of WSIB coverage and liability insurance reaches you, and the landlord or property manager where a roof is involved, before the crew arrives.
The documentation standard behind every visit is on the about page. Corridors and jurisdictions across North York and Thornhill are on the areas served page, and which segment needs what paperwork is on the who we serve page.
After-hours visits and roof keys in North York
Nearly every visit happens while the kitchen is closed, and nearly every delay starts on the roof rather than in the kitchen.
Overnight is the standard window. The crew arrives after the last cover, sheets the line, cleans the system and leaves the kitchen wiped down and uncovered before the morning prep cook unlocks the door. A Yonge corridor bistro, a Bayview Village kitchen and a Thornhill dining room all fit that window.
Between services is the other option. A hospital kitchen, a campus dining hall or a care-home kitchen that never goes fully dark books the gap between meals or a scheduled break, and the visit is sized to finish inside it.
The roof has to be open. The rooftop fan is part of every full-system clean, and a locked hatch stops the visit at the top of the riser. Confirm before the night who holds the key, whether a lockbox code exists, whether a ladder or lift is on site, and whether the property manager wants notice.
Shared roofs and shared risers. A unit in a food court or a plaza often shares a roof, and sometimes a riser, with the kitchen next door. Say so on the call if the fan serves more than one hood. Shared risers are covered on the kitchen exhaust cleaning page, hinge kits and rooftop grease containment on the exhaust fan repair page.
Next step: call 647-797-9137 or send the form above with the five answers listed on this page. Everything else is settled on the walk-through.
Contacting North York Hood Cleaning: frequently asked questions
Is the phone or the form the quicker way to book?
The phone. A call to 647-797-9137 reaches a person who can open the crew calendar while you talk, and it is how most people here reach the business. The form suits a request written after close, or one that a property manager or franchise office wants on record.
Does North York Hood Cleaning have an office to visit?
No. North York Hood Cleaning works in customer kitchens and on customer roofs across North York and Thornhill west of Yonge Street. Quotes, certificates and photographs are delivered by email.
What does the walk-through cost?
Nothing, and it carries no obligation to book. A duct run and a rooftop fan cannot be judged over the phone, so a price given without seeing them is a guess. The published starting points are from $585 per visit for a single hood up to ten feet and from $995 for two to four canopies.
How far ahead should a kitchen book?
The next open night is offered on the first call, and a kitchen with a fixed closure or an inspection date should book as soon as that date is known. A landlord who needs notice for roof access adds time, so start that conversation the same day.
Who needs to be on site during the visit?
Nobody has to stay through the night. A person who can unlock the kitchen and the roof, or a lockbox code plus the property manager's number, is enough. The signed certificate and the before-and-after photographs follow by email.
