How to Verify a Massachusetts Hood Cleaning Service company
Before scheduling service, verify the technician credentials, company registration, insurance, and written cleaning scope.
Verify the individual credential
Ask for the name and current certificate of competency information for the person performing or supervising the regulated work.
Verify the company registration
Confirm the legal business name and current Massachusetts registration for commercial hood cleaning and inspection work.
Confirm insurance
Request current proof of liability and any other insurance required by the property, ownership group or facility.
Compare written scope
The proposal should identify the hood, filters, plenum, duct, fan, rooftop area, access limitations, documentation and exclusions.
Ask how the fan is opened and supported
Unsafe fan access can damage wiring or equipment. Ask about hinge kits, restraint and roof safety.
Keep records
Retain the service label, invoice, scope, photos, report and repair recommendations.

Frequently asked questions
Is a logo that says certified enough?
No. Ask for the actual current credential and registration details.
Should the quote name every component?
Yes. The clearer the scope, the easier it is to compare service companies and understand what was cleaned.
Can a cleaning company inspect fire-suppression equipment?
Fire-suppression work is separate and may require different qualifications. Confirm each service company is qualified for the specific service offered.
