Contact Muskoka Hood Cleaning
Muskoka Hood Cleaning is a commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning service reached two ways: a call to 705-302-3662 or the quote form on this page. Either route books a free walk-through, and a written quote comes back within 24 hours of that visit. Power Hoods Systems performs the walk-through, the cleaning and the certificate. The same line takes a camp director planning an opening clean, a resort chef ahead of wedding season and a restaurant owner in a town core, across the District of Muskoka, the Town of Parry Sound and Haliburton village.
What to have ready when you call
Five answers let the crew size a Muskoka kitchen on the first call.
The canopy count and the cooking. Say how many hoods there are, roughly how long each one is, and what sits under them. Pricing starts from $585 per visit for a single-hood kitchen up to ten feet and from $995 per visit for a multi-hood kitchen of two to four canopies. Camp dining halls, resort and hotel kitchens, institutional kitchens and long duct runs are quoted on site after a free walk-through.
Your season. A kitchen that opens in spring and closes in fall books differently from one that trades all year. Tell the crew your opening date, your last service date and any banquet or wedding weekends in between. Year-round kitchens can book overnight or between services.
How the crew gets to the building. A town-core restaurant has a parking lot at the back door. A lodge at the end of a long private road, or a camp reached by water, needs a plan. Say which one you are.
The roof. Say where the hatch or ladder is, who holds the key, and whether the fan sits on an older roof that needs care underfoot.
Your last certificate and who asks for it. The date of the last cleaning, if you have it, sets the starting point. Mention whether the request comes from your insurer, a health unit, your fire department or a head office.
To match a problem to a service before you call, start at the services overview. For the standard your certificate refers to, read the NFPA 96 page.
What happens after you send the form?
The form request goes to the crew that books walk-throughs, and a written quote follows within 24 hours of the walk-through.
Step one: the request lands. Your details go into the same booking record as phone calls. The page you sent it from is noted, so the crew knows which form you used.
Step two: a call to set the walk-through. Someone phones back to pick a date and confirm access to the kitchen and the roof.
Step three: the free walk-through. The technician looks at the canopies, filters, plenum, duct route and rooftop fan. Nothing is cleaned and nothing is owed.
Step four: the written quote. It arrives within 24 hours of the walk-through and lists the scope, the price and any item that needs your separate approval.
Step five: paperwork before the visit. Proof of WSIB coverage and liability insurance comes to you before work starts. After the visit you receive a signed health and safety certificate referencing the published NFPA 96 standard, with before-and-after photographs of every cleaned surface. The about page explains that documentation standard.
Remote, water-access and island kitchens in Muskoka
Muskoka kitchens are not all on a paved street, so the walk-through settles how the crew and its equipment reach the building.
Water access. If the kitchen sits on an island or a shoreline property with no road, say so when you call. Tell the crew where a vehicle can park, how people and equipment cross, and who meets them at the dock.
Long private roads. Camp and lodge roads can be narrow, unplowed in shoulder season, or gated. Share the gate code and any load or height limits before the visit date.
Timing around the season. Pre-season opening cleans run in spring and shutdown cleans run in fall. Book the spring visit before staff arrive and the fall visit after the last session, so the kitchen is empty. The camp and resort page covers why the two-visit season matters.
Where the crew goes. Coverage runs through the District of Muskoka plus the Town of Parry Sound and Haliburton village. The areas served page lists each community, and Huntsville has its own page.
Roof access for the rooftop fan
The rooftop exhaust fan is part of a full-system clean, and the roof is where most lost visit dates start.
Know who holds the key. A locked hatch stops the visit at the duct. Confirm before the date who opens the roof, whether a ladder or lift is on site, and whether a property manager or owner wants notice.
Say what the winter left behind. A fan that sat idle all winter can have snow damage, a seized bearing or a nest in the housing. Mention anything you have seen or heard at start-up.
Tell the crew about hinges and grease on the roof. A fan without a hinge kit, or grease pooling on the membrane around the curb, changes the scope. The exhaust fan repair page covers both.
Next step: call 705-302-3662 or send the form above with the answers on this page. The walk-through settles the rest.
Contacting Muskoka Hood Cleaning: frequently asked questions
Is the phone or the form faster?
The phone is faster. A call to 705-302-3662 lets the crew ask about canopies, season dates and roof access in one conversation. The form suits a request sent after hours or one a manager, owner or head office wants in writing.
Is there an email address to write to?
Muskoka Hood Cleaning takes requests by phone and through the quote form only. The form asks for your email address so the written quote has somewhere to go.
What does the walk-through cost?
The walk-through is free, and booking is not a condition of it. A duct run and a rooftop fan cannot be priced from a phone call, so the visit replaces a guess with a written number within 24 hours.
How early should a camp or resort book its spring clean?
A camp or resort should call well before staff arrive, because spring is one of the two busiest windows. Website quote requests reach the crew year-round, with the spring pre-season and the fall shutdown as the busiest windows.
Who needs to be on site during the visit?
A person who can open the kitchen and the roof needs to be available at the start. For a remote or water-access property, that person also meets the crew where the road or the dock ends. The certificate and photographs follow the visit.
