About Our Service
Core Hood Cleaning provides comprehensive commercial kitchen exhaust system cleaning throughout Downtown San Diego. We serve restaurants, hotels, bars, and commercial kitchens in the Gaslamp Quarter, Little Italy, East Village, Marina District, and all of downtown SD. Downtown restaurants operate on razor-thin margins with back-to-back service we schedule around your hours and work efficiently to keep your kitchen running.
Downtown San Diego's restaurant scene is one of the most competitive in California. High-volume operations, older historic buildings with complex ductwork, and frequent health inspections make consistent professional maintenance essential. We offer late-night and overnight scheduling, same-day emergency response, and full NFPA 96 documentation on every service.
