HOW WE CALCULATE THIS

The pricing model, briefly

Hood cleaning is quoted on five variables, and almost every surprise in a bid traces back to one of them:

  • Hood count and complexity. A single-hood pizza shop is one job. A full line with a charbroiler + wok + fryers is a different job.
  • Rooftop fan(s). Each one has to be lifted, cleaned, and reset — with its belts and bearings checked. Priced per fan.
  • Duct length and access. Long vertical duct through a 3-story building costs more to clean and to photograph for your file.
  • Rooftop access. Interior stairs are fine. Exterior ladder is standard. A lift truck adds real money.
  • Frequency. Recurring service (quarterly/monthly) should come with a discount off the one-time price — and with steadier documentation.

We do not take a kickback from companies on this site. The calculator is designed to give you a sanity-check range before you call anyone, so you can walk into a quote knowing whether it’s in the ballpark.
