What is included
Kitchen hood cleaning and exhaust degreasing for restaurants, hotels, cafes and villa kitchens, from the canopy and filters through the duct to the fan. Grease that gets past the filters settles inside the duct and on the fan, where it restricts extraction and becomes a fire risk. We degrease the full exhaust path, not only the visible canopy, work around your service hours and hand over dated photographs. Any landlord, insurer or authority requirement for cleaning records is checked at the site visit.
- Hob, worktop and cabinet fronts covered before work begins
- Metal filters soaked, rinsed, dried and refitted
- Carbon filters on recirculating hoods replaced, never washed
- Fan and housing wiped out with degreaser on cloths
How we carry out apartment kitchen hood cleaning
Most apartment hoods are telescopic or canopy units set into the wall cabinets, so there is little room and laminate or lacquer on every side. We cover the hob and worktop, switch the hood off at its isolator and take the metal filters to the sink or the balcony for a hot degreaser soak. The housing is cleaned with cloths and a small brush, keeping liquid away from the lamp and the motor. If the hood recirculates, the old carbon filter is taken out and a new one of the right pattern is fitted.
In many Abu Dhabi towers the hood does not discharge outside at all: it either recirculates through carbon or connects to a shared riser managed by the building. A saturated carbon filter stops absorbing smells within months, and the open plan living room then smells of whatever was cooked the day before. Grease dripping from a neglected filter stains the cabinet base and the splashback grout. At the visit we confirm which type you have. Our work stops where your duct meets the riser.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site survey and method statement. We walk the premises with your facilities contact, record areas, finishes and access rules, and issue a written method statement and risk assessment.
- Schedule around your operation. Work is planned for early mornings, evenings or overnight so staff, customers and tenants are not disturbed.
- Supervised crews with checklists. A named supervisor runs the same uniformed crew each visit against a room by room checklist.
- Audit and reporting. Each visit is photographed. Retained contracts receive a monthly report covering attendance, audits and any corrective actions.

Apartment Kitchen Hood Cleaning in Al Rawdah: what we plan for
Al Rawdah covers the southern inland part of Abu Dhabi island, between Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street and Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Street, with Zayed Sports City on its edge. Housing mixes private villas set back from the main streets, mid rise apartment and hotel apartment buildings, and the Rihan Heights towers rising above podium gardens near the sports city.
Open ground around the sports grounds and the main roads means fine sand reaches every terrace and window track. Closer to Khor Al Maqta, humidity rises in summer, and condensation forms on cold AC ducts in roof spaces and ceiling voids. Hotel apartment buildings and offices in Al Rawdah are cleaned at times that suit guests and staff, with the schedule agreed with the manager.
Rihan Heights and the apartment buildings need a work permit from building management and a service lift booking. Private villas are reached with the owner's agreement. Any approval for exterior work is identified at the site visit, and we prepare the paperwork the community asks for.

Questions about apartment kitchen hood cleaning in Al Rawdah
What does apartment kitchen hood cleaning include?
Apartment cooker hoods are usually slim, built in units. Filters are soaked, the housing and fan degreased and carbon filters replaced, all without wetting the cabinets. The work includes hob, worktop and cabinet fronts covered before work begins; metal filters soaked, rinsed, dried and refitted; carbon filters on recirculating hoods replaced, never washed.
Can you clean the duct in my apartment as well?
We clean the length that belongs to your unit, from the hood to the point where it joins the building riser, where it can be reached without cutting cabinets. The riser beyond that connection is the responsibility of building management.
Why does my hood not remove cooking smells any more?
On a recirculating hood the usual reason is a spent carbon filter, which cannot be washed back to life and has to be replaced. On a ducted hood it is more often blocked metal filters or a non return flap stuck with grease.
How much does apartment kitchen hood cleaning cost in Al Rawdah?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: floor area and the mix of finishes; visit frequency and working hours. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
