Hood Cleaning in Olympia, WA — Commercial & Residential Kitchen Exhaust Specialists

NFPA 96-compliant commercial hood cleaning for restaurants and thorough residential hood cleaning for homes across Olympia, Tacoma, Lacey, and Tumwater. Grease-free, code-compliant, fully documented.

The Pacific Northwest's Trusted Kitchen Hood Cleaning Company

Grease, smoke, and airborne oil don't stay on the cooktop — they ride the exhaust into your hood, filters, plenum, ductwork, and rooftop fan. Left alone, that build-up becomes the single biggest fire risk in any kitchen and a violation waiting to happen for any commercial operator. Cornerstone Home Professionals performs full-system kitchen hood cleaning that strips grease back to bare metal, restores airflow, and gives you the paperwork to prove it.

We run two distinct programs under one standard of clean: commercial hood cleaning built around NFPA 96 for restaurants, food trucks, schools, and institutional kitchens — and residential hood cleaning for homeowners, vacation rentals, and property managers who want a safer, better-smelling kitchen. Every job is photographed before and after, and every commercial cleaning ships with a certification sticker your fire marshal and insurance carrier will recognize.

We serve Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater, Tacoma, Lakewood, DuPont, and the surrounding Thurston and Pierce County communities. Same-week scheduling is typical, after-hours commercial work is standard, and quotes are always free and in writing.

Why It Matters

Why Professional Hood Cleaning Matters

Whether you cook for a family or a full dining room, built-up grease is the silent risk above the stove. Here's what regular cleaning gives you back.

Reduce Fire Risk

Grease buildup inside hoods and ductwork is the leading cause of kitchen fires. Routine cleaning removes the fuel.

Better Air Quality

Pull smoke, steam, and odors out the way they were designed to — not back into your living or dining space.

Code & Insurance Compliant

Documented cleanings keep commercial kitchens aligned with NFPA 96 and protect your insurance standing.

Extend Equipment Life

Clean fans, filters, and ducts run cooler and last longer — protecting the investment in your kitchen.

Standards & Compliance

NFPA 96 Restaurant Hood Cleaning, Done Right

Every commercial hood cleaning we perform follows the NFPA 96 Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations. That means the entire exhaust system — hood, baffles, plenum, horizontal and vertical duct, and rooftop exhaust fan — is cleaned to bare metal where accessible, with access panels installed where the system was originally sealed.

Recommended Cleaning Frequency

  • Monthly — solid-fuel cooking (wood, charcoal)
  • Quarterly — high-volume restaurants, 24-hour operations
  • Semi-annually — moderate-volume cooking
  • Annually — low-volume, churches, seasonal kitchens
  • Every 6–12 months — residential range hoods
