WHAT TO BUNDLE WITH HOOD CLEANING.
Hood cleaning rarely travels alone. Restaurant groups and property managers prefer fewer vendors — which means the operator who can credibly offer hood plus appliance deep-cleaning plus power washing plus fire suppression inspection wins the account. Here's an honest look at the six most common add-on categories.
CATEGORY OVERVIEW
Six services that pair with hood cleaning
Commercial Appliance Deep Cleaning
Steam-and-scrub service for ovens, fryers, combi ovens, flat-tops, and broilers. Goes deeper than the line cook's end-of-shift wipe-down — we're talking disassembly, immersion, and polishing.
$85–$250 per appliance depending on size and condition

Commercial Power Washing
Exterior building, storefront, sidewalk, drive-thru, and dumpster-pad pressure cleaning. Lower technical bar than hood cleaning but the rig overlaps 90% — the same hot-water skid that strips hood grease handles sidewalks.
$0.15–$0.50 / sq ft for flatwork; $250–$900 per storefront

Commercial Window Cleaning
Inside and outside glass, storefront windows, and occasional rope-access high-rise work. Primarily a daytime service — the opposite schedule of hood cleaning, which makes it attractive as a second-shift business.
$3–$8 per pane for storefront; $150–$400 per restaurant visit on a monthly plan

Commercial Janitorial Services
Nightly or periodic deep-cleaning of dining rooms, restrooms, and back-of-house. A different trade from hood cleaning, but the routing overlaps — one service call that hits hoods, floors, and restrooms is a property manager's dream.
$0.08–$0.18 per sq ft for nightly janitorial; $400–$1,500 / month for a typical restaurant

Grease Trap Cleaning and Hauling
Pumping, cleaning, and hauling FOG (fats, oils, grease) from under-sink interceptors and exterior 1,000–2,500 gallon grease traps. Separate equipment (vacuum truck, DOT hazmat routing) but the same customer.
$175–$650 per service for an under-sink trap; $450–$1,200 for a 1,000-gal exterior trap

Kitchen Fire Suppression Inspection
Semi-annual inspection and recharge of the Ansul or Amerex system above the hood. Required by NFPA 17A and most state fire codes. The single cleanest cross-sell to hood cleaning.
$150–$400 per semi-annual inspection; $250–$800 for a full recharge after a discharge
